Flowers are a part of the trinity that is the space where the wedding is being held and its design. Dress comes next perhaps for the bride, but that also falls well behind if she feels her hair and makeup aren’t just right and her friends don’t approve of the groom at all.
But, even more than the overall design of a room are the flowers. They are one of the first things everyone notices even if they are not consciously registering that fact. Flowers can save poor design, a bad cake and a marginal space; they transcend.
If you’re getting married anywhere near San Francisco and have the money to spend (weddings start at $8,000 from Natalie Bowen and her team), it’s the only way to go in this man’s opinion.
Whether it is the eye she shows in design from restaurants she does the work for, Natalie Bowen has an eye and I’ve not heard a discouraging word, but have seen her featured in numerous bridal publications, Vogue and others.
This third-generation flower sorceress is highly chased after in a city where Silicon Valley money dictates the going rate. Planning a wedding two years down the line? You may wish to speak to Natalie Bowen Designs now and perhaps even consider a January wedding.
