July Actions

I can't believe the whole month have gone past. Blogging time again. I have thought of few blogs already that I'd like to post, however haven't gone around to do it just yet. So here it is our July actions:
Nikko Bridal Fair held on th 18-19th of this month and we were pleased to be selected as the decorator for Nusa Dua Beach Hotel at Jakarta Wedding Festival held on the 24 - 26th of this month.
Promise I will write stories about those 2 events..but for now we have a wedding to prepare. I will cover tomorrow's wedding in the next blogs too.
take care for now.

Mad Ad

Perfection: an ideal? Passion for perfection could be both an asset and liability. It's great that red gardenia as wedding decorator, strives for perfection all the time. Yet, considering limitations of time, resources, etc sometimes we need to settle for (near) perfection. Of course we improve continuously.

Passion for perfection is shared by many in our field of Bali wedding industry. In our first advertisement publication we collaborate with Eddie, Mata Photography. Another believer in passion for perfection, a dedicated photographer in our world of Bali wedding. During the photo shoot I took the liberty of taking a picture of the man behind the scene. I don't think we actually selected that particular photograph. But look at his effort to get the best shot. Thanks Eddie!



About the advertisement, red gardenia is in next edition of Her World Brides Indonesia! Mind you it's my first marketing ad. It's not perfect but close?

Buy the magazine and I guess you'd be the judge.

Take care for now.

Inspirations

You've read this many times before I am sure: "Ideas come when you least expected."

Personal touches in any events brings about conversation or experiences that relate your guests to you. This store Cemal Cemil is a fascination to me because vintage goods like below can relived memories of my childhood.

Have a look at their ideas of reinventing past snacks and traditional toys (world way beyond computers and blogs). True Indonesian.



Then came the inspiration: imagine using these toys from the past, such as paper wind catchers at the bar table with flowers (of course) or favors on guests plates for your next casual party... even simply as playing snake and ladders at home with you loved ones. I am sure your guests will have something to talk about for a while... "Remember when..."

Don't forget to enjoy the snacks and smoke some chocolate cigarettes at the same time!



Hope you enjoy these as much as I do!

Unique Arrangements

redgardenia is making a website, it has been under construction for a while now. I am happy to announce it will be up and running in May 2009!

Like successful weddings, this process too is better off on the hand of professionals. Maybe we leave web design to the experts but here are some pictures that I have compiled while selecting pictures for the website. At least, we show our real expertise in flowers and design...

here are some previews:

behind red gardenia

I will never start without explaining the meaning behind the name...
red gardenia is an idea of looking at different angles... Wikipedia the flower "gardenia" the description will not explain you its color being red... as they are white and pale yellow... so we do embrace the idea of being unique and challenge the grounds... remember square watermelons?

...hope you enjoy our stories!
