Valentine's is just around the corner....

And all the flowers are putting on their finest show just for you..... :)

Looove, loooove the bright colors....gerbs are perfect for that. :)

But in all seriousness, our product is looking particularly stellar this Valentine's and we're super excited to share it with you! It's not that far away so be sure to get your order in soon!

Merry Christmas & Happy 2013!

We'll be closing early today and all day tomorrow to spend time with our families over the holidays. We're planning to be back on December 26th, but we're also keeping a close eye on that weather storm!

And so you can preplan if needed, we will also be closed New Years Eve as well as New Years Day. Then we're back to our regular hours for your floral fix! :)

I know I can safely say everyone at Graves wishes you & yours the best & brightest in 2013. And that we hope you know how much we appreciate all your business, love & friendship throughout each & every year.

We hope everyone has a beautiful (and safe!) holiday season!

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

One of our favorite blooms, back in season.....

Dahlias......

They're back. :)

Closed: Labor Day

We'll be closed this upcoming Saturday through Monday for Labor Day.

We'll be back open at 8:00 AM Tuesday morning! Have a wonderful (and safe!) holiday weekend! See you Tuesday!

And just in case you didn't think we had noticed.....

GO SOONERS! GO POKES!

(We've got a shop divided here....)  :)

Fall Shop Transition: Burlap & Lace

Can you feel those cooler temps starting to roll in? (Cooler being a relative term, ha!) We're still in the 90's but at least we're out of the 100's! Aaaand it's almost September. Which means it's almost FALL!

And we loooove fall flowers.

But it's not just fresh flowers that get all the love - we've been transitioning the front over now as well and our silks and home decor is just as pretty! For instance, take this awesome combo we've recently fallen head over heels for:




Burlap and lace, baby.

ALL THAT TEXTURE.

(We're texture happy people.)

We've got more pics lined up for you, but for now we'll just tease you with that sweet & simple beauty. :)

Our shop is featuring this knockout combo all season, so be sure to check it out!

Back from the Flower Show....

Back from the flower show at OKC's Greenleaf!

(And let me tell you: their new building is amazing.)

Not to mention our designer for the evening, Vonda LaFever, was also amazing. Greenleaf & the Oklahoma Board did a fantastic job of bringing her in and hosting a lovely inspiration workshop for the state.

And not only is Vonda a tops designer, she is so nice. Absolutely engaging personality, fascinating to watch and learn from, and also, quite funny.

Wonderful job for everyone involved! It was super fun, Greenleaf's new coolers are top notch and the place looks remarkable.

Let's end on one of our favorite arrangements from LaFever:

But I love anything with green glads and orange roses. :)

2012 Weddings - Terra Cotta, Golds & Peaches

This is from one of our weddings several weeks ago, but check out that awesome (and unusual!) color palette! Terra cottas, golds, peaches & olive greens!

Bridesmaid Front

Guinea feathers, gold dahlias, leonidas & green beauty roses, solidago, hypericum berries, euc....

See those lace handles? They're pieces taken from the bride's grandmothers wedding gown. :) Something old....

Too cute.... a baby bout!

Bout's filled with craspedia (billy balls), guinea feathers, hypericum & euc.

Groom's Bout - Green Beauty Rose with Craspedia, Solidago, Euc, Hypericum & Guinea Feathers.

All the corsages & bout's together.

The reception pieces were small centerpieces and all different from one another, so we just snapped a collection of photos to give you an idea of what they looked like together:
