FLORAL & EVENT DESIGN by THE THREE DIVAS



While living in Atlanta, it was always one of our greatest joys to be a part of event and floral design for parties...whether it was for an event as grand as a wedding or as simple as a dinner party!

Since beginning our business as The Dessert Divas, designing special event cakes, it was a natural evolution to begin doing floral and event design for our clients who were planning special events.

So now we are officially "Open for Business" here in Wilmington, NC as THE THREE DIVAS in FLORAL & EVENT DESIGN.

In the last few months we have had some wonderful experiences with brides and their families for both local and destination weddings.

Floral & Event Design, Wedding Cake, & Hostess Assisting For Olivia's Destination Wedding on Wrightsville Beach...





Decorated Shepard's hooks mark the ceremony site on the lush green lawn of a Wrightsville Beach home.




A transformed beach home was the reception site, decorated in Olivia's favorite colors of tangerine & pink.







To bring the feel of the beach inside, sea oats & beach flora were incorporated into large arrangements throughout the room...



The cake is cut, the first dance has begun...


...let the party begin!...






For Sutton's Landfall Garden Wedding...








Even Sutton's niece Eliza had a little bouquet!

It is amazing how one floral arrangement can transform a room into an environment for a celebration of any kind!...
