"Bonbons..."

It’s Friday and working 24/7 with quotes and décor images, you sometimes reach a point where you feel like screaming when you see another flower or furnishing. So, to do some exploring outside our line of expertise, we focus on the enjoyment and pleasure of good food but to be more specific… cakes, pastries, trays of cup cakes and all sorts of chewy, sugary delights. Not only a welcome replacement for guest favours but these childhood delights become master pieces that compliment the décor and flowers as well!!

Have a happy happy weekend!

Jetsetters...

Because we will not get very far through customs with our garden scissors, glue guns and fresh cut flowers, we like to experience life through the lenses of our some of our favourite photographers who all seem to be travelling the world during the winter months.

Christine Meintjies’ exhilarating trip to Paris, France and Lisbon, Portugal

Lizelle Lotter’s latest wedding shoot in Camp Kwando, Namibia.

Pro Photography, where Sybrand shot the “Westlife Wedding” in Barbados.

Zara Zoo’s trip to Thailand and

Jean Pierre who is jetsetting (in a private yet) in Marjorca, Spain.

Okey so maybe we are just a little bit jealous...

Winter weekend

It’s the weekend and with only one wedding tomorrow it almost feels like a mini-holiday for us!!!The weather predictions do not look good at all, but here’s to hoping that at least our floral designs will brighten up this gloomy cold front and set a cheerful tone for a cosy celebration…

Tea break...

Seeing that winter is here in full force, we don’t mind keeping ourselves busy with admin in our cozy office during most part of the day. Every now and again we take the occasional tea break and snoop around the net for some inspirational ideas. Make sure you visit Snippet & Ink, for daily inspirational wedding ideas. It is without a doubt one of the top sites on our list…

Wake up call

Our sincere apologies for our absence on the blog scene the past month! At the end of a very busy season, we are thankful for the long awaited winter that has arrived. We are without a doubt the only people in the Cape that welcomes the winter, knowing that it holds the promise of a rare scarcity in our industry…weekends at home! Time to unwind and relax with loved ones in front of a crackling fire. We at Leipzig love winter and the serenity that it brings, offering us much appreciated time to recharge our batteries for the busy season that lies ahead.

With that said, we would love to share some of our latest creations showcased at weddings in & around the Cape Winelands during the past few months. Watch this space as we reveal new floral inspirations during the next few weeks…
