In case you missed any of the bridal shows Event Floral participated in, we wanted to share our experience with you! Please enjoy the pictures and inspirations we’ve collected from our displays.
We started off the year at Giovanni’s for Rockford’s Own Bridal Expo. As always, there was a great crowd with lots of enthusiastic brides and grooms, friends, and family. We had a blast meeting lots of new faces and future Event Floral brides.

This dramatic floral arrangement looks modern and fresh atop an oversized black glass vase.

A collection of spring bouquets in shades of green, white tulips, and shades of pink.
Fluffy textures of hydrangea, roses, and dusty miller give this bouquet rustic elegance.
Large crystals give this cascade bridal bouquet a modern edge.
Next we coordinated with Photography by Kristen and Cake Creations on an inviting, inspiring set at the gorgeous Orchard Ridge Farms Pavilion for the non-traditional wedding show, Rockford Wed. Forget the typical vendor booth! Brides and their entourages got the opportunity to see and experience how local vendors can transform spaces and create the perfect looks for their weddings. We loved all the creativity and enjoyed the chance to provide flowers and decor for many of the vendors’ displays as well.
