Julia Hill and the design team of Kallisto Events are so much more than just a wedding florist. They are an inventive, full package event design team. Sure, they create beautiful bridal party bouquets and gorgeous centerpieces, but they can also transform your event space with top to bottom decor. My wedding design inspiration was "old world european, classic, french influenced, garden party"... a mix of ideas, right? After talking to Julia about what "feel" I wanted, and going through some inspiration photos with her, she understood the vibe I was looking for and took of running. Julia took my invitation theme of calligraphy and the Fleur de Lys symbol, and threaded it through the entire event. The flowers were refined, grand, and beautiful while still having a friendly garden party feel. She created the most elegant popcorn bar you can imagine. Every idea I had, she executed beyond my wildest imagination. I saw these floral chandeliers that were incredible, but that I couldn't afford, so she made out of babies breath... and then she integrated them into a showpiece with chandeliers I had found, all hanging above the aisle for my entrance to the ceremony. It was magical. She used little Fleur de Lys charms in the boutonnieres. Our ceremony "altar" was decorated with beautiful ferns that she had added roses and other flowers to ... stunning.
I learned that it was best to trust her judgement and let her run with her designs, since what she came up with was better than anything I could have thought of myself (and she always kept it within our original discussions about the look and feel we wanted). The entire design of the wedding was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. I wish I could post pictures here for you to see!
