Orange & Hot Pink Mexican Birthday Party!

November 8, 2017 admin Leave a comment

Take a look at this festive, fun & colorful 50th Birthday Celebration!!!
We worked closely with the client’s U.S. wedding planner, Jayne at Just Jayne Events, and the resort planner at Rancho Pescadero, Katie Thompson, to bring the birthday girl’s vision to fruition!

Our client was so thrilled with our paper flower wall, hand-cut and designed by our Donna (on the left) with help from Perla (on the right). This was a photo op location at the entrance to the resort and then provided a back drop for the 3-tier birthday cake. Adding succulents in pots also added a fun element of greenery to the rustic wooden farm tables. Our flags, and paper flower pom-poms, glowed as the pink & orange lighting shone in the Rancho Pescadero Palm Grove.

Celebrate your special milestones in style! Have fun, and create your dream event, we’re here to help!

Real Wedding: Ellie & Tyler – Cabo Del Sol Golf Clubhouse

July 25, 2017 admin Leave a comment

Our beautiful bride, Ellie, knew exactly what she wanted her bouquet to look like…natural, leafy, green & white only, and very fresh and romantic! We know we fulfilled her every wish & presented her with her perfect bridal bouquet!

One of our favorite parts of a Cabo wedding is when, working with a wedding planner, we get to present the personal flowers to the bride and groom.
Getting ready to proceed down to the ceremony….the florals all look perfect!

The palm arch and pineapple & Bird of Paradise leaf aisle decor look adorable…and we used the pineapples as cocktail table decor after the ceremony! Papel picado table signs…a great way to bring a little bit of Mexico into your Cabo destination wedding decor!

A eucalyptus leaf floral runner was stunning on the wooden farm tables!

Love the look of Ellie & Tyler’s wedding? Contact us today & we’ll help you create your own special version of this fabulous floral decor! www.loscabosflowers.com

5 Wedding Floral Trends for your Cabo Wedding in 2017

January 2, 2017 admin Leave a comment

We here south of the border, in beautiful Cabo San Lucas, have rung in the New Year and are so excited to be introducing our brides and our local clients to some of the most stunning new trends for the year of 2017!

These are some ideas we know we’ll be seeing a lot more of at our Cabo weddings…and that we are thrilled about. Can we help you, dear bride, include some of these great ideas into your wedding’s floral plan?

TREND #1: FREE-FLOWING, MORE NATURAL & LESS STRUCTURED BRIDAL BOUQUETS:

TREND #2: BRIGHT COLORS AS PART OF YOUR CABO WEDDING FLORAL PLAN. Color like: reds, oranges, & yellows.

TREND #3: PROTEAS! ALL KINDS OF PROTEAS! These funky and sassy flowers are the belle of the ball lately…and we love them! In bouquets and on tables!

TREND #4: FLOWER GIRL HEAD WREATHS. (These were popular in 2016 and will continue to be in 2017, with lots of color as well!)

TREND #5: MIX OF BOUTONNIERES. (Make them each just a bit different to match the groomsmen’s unique personalities.)

So have fun with your floral planning for 2017…and let us know what we can do to assist you! We are the #CaboFloralExperts!

Real Wedding: Meredith & PJ’s Baja Destination Wedding

December 12, 2016 admin Leave a comment

Our last Real Wedding post for our Cabo Flowers & Cakes blog for the 2016 year is one of our favorites! Our clients, Meredith & PJ, had such a memorable wedding at Rancho Pescadero…and so much fun! They were all smiles and their playful spirits showed through in their flowers choices as well!

Meredith’s head wreath (a perfect fit with her loose braid) and floral bouquet were bright, colorful, whimsical and natural. She didn’t want anything sculpted or too big; she wanted flowers that fit with the stunning environment at their amazing wedding location, Rancho Pescadero.

Meredith & PJ’s flower girl (with petals in her purse…so cute!) modeled another boho-type head wreath. We create our head wreaths with a special back enclosure so that each wreath fits each individual head perfectly! No bobby pins needed!

We love the way Meredith is holding her bouquet…she wanted a casual look with her bouquet as she walked down the aisle. Nothing too rehearsed looking…just a easy stroll to her beloved.

The white paper Mexican flags hanging here are called “Papel Picado” here in Mexico. They are individually cut with beautiful and intricate designs, and are a popular addition to Mexican events. We carry them (in both plastic – more durable – and the traditional paper) and hang them as well. Make this a must-have for your Mexican wedding!

Cake cutting time! After some heavy dancing (and a quick dip in the pool mid-reception), Meredith & PJ cut their simple 3-tier cake. Our name says it all: We are Cabo Flowers & Cakes, and cakes are our specialty as well! This one was, as one of the guests commented, “one of the best tasting wedding cakes ever!”

How White Bridal Bouquets Are Bringing Sexy Back

March 8, 2016 admin Leave a comment

The classic white bridal bouquet is our #1 requested bouquet at Cabo Flowers and Cakes! And we fully support this fabulous bouquet! But just as Justin Timberlake sang (a long time ago), we believe in bringing sexy back and so we feel like jazzing up the classic white bouquet…just a bit! (Don’t worry….nothing too drastic!)

To enhance the classic white bridal bouquet, it’s all about what are the little additions (extra unique or special flowers or greenery) that make the bouquet stand up and dazzle. This bouquet (above) includes a touch of Belles of Ireland. (Photo credit: Amy Bennett)

How about adding white anemones, succulents, and green hydrangea & eucalyptus? This used to be a white bouquet until we transformed to it into a super-cool, super-gorgeous, extra special bridal bouquet with a white base! Spectacular!

White Mums and green hydrangeas add beautiful color and texture to what could’ve been a traditional white bouquet.

There are lots of ways to play this game!

And don’t forget how different textures of white (and different styles of white flowers) help up the glamour element as well.

Looking for a traditional white bouquet for your Cabo wedding, but want to make it YOURS? Look no further than Cabo Flowers and Cakes floral designers…we’re bringing sexy back to the traditional white bouquet!

These Trends are the Secret Ingredient to Wedding Fabulousness!

January 27, 2016 admin Leave a comment

With the first month of 2016 coming to a close (can you believe how quickly January has flown by!), we wanted to highlight a few more wedding trends that we think are adorable and truly fabulous and should be brought here to Cabo immediately!

Especially with a destination wedding like this one in Cabo, it can be difficult to include all of our besties, especially our furry ones! So what better way to include them, then to give their photos a place of honor at the reception.
Instead of linen table runner, try a floral table runner on a simple white linen. Lined with candles, this adds the drama of hundreds of flowers, still leaving room for your guests to be able to chat across and down the long table.

3. Greenery, and lots of it, is really hot right now, and it’s not just limited to the table. Hanging greenery, especially in a location like Cabo where for most of our venues, literally the sky is the limit, this adds an amazing view from the tables.

4. The flowers should, of course, scream glamour, but let’s not forget about the vase! Clear vases, emphasizing the beauty of the stems, with rocks (or shells, or jewels, or seaglass…the list goes on) are clean and simply gorgeous.

Let us help you bring these great ideas to life for your wedding in Los Cabos! We are the floral experts! www.loscabosflowers.com

Bridal Bouquet Trends In 2016 That Will Impress Your Friends

January 20, 2016 admin Leave a comment

January is halfway over…and we have been having fun researching trends for the new year! As the Cabo floral expert, we, of course, are always so excited by bridal bouquets! So let’s delve in…here are some gorgeous looks, great unique additions to bouquets, and fun different ways to use some of our traditionally favorite flowers!

Here’s what we came up for you…trends that we know will impress your friends! (As if a wedding in Cabo isn’t enough to impress!)

BABY’S BREATH: Colored or white, this flower used to get a bad rap. No longer! Use it alone to create a wispy wildflower look.

GREENERY GALORE: Greenery is the master of this bouquet. A fresh look!

ADD CURLY WILLOW & AN ALTERNATIVE GREENERY: How about lamb’s ear for the greenery in this bouquet? We love this trend! Add some curly willow to your bouquet, for the beautiful rustic and romantic look!

COLOR AND RIBBONS: Huge & colorful…with a ribbon drape. Couldn’t be cuter…can’t wait to create a bunch of these bouquets at Cabo Flowers and Cakes this year! Don’t go small here!

Connect with us through our social media! Let us help you create the most amazing floral decor…keeping it up-to-date and on-trend!

REAL LIFE WEDDING: Mallory & Evan

January 8, 2016 admin Leave a comment

Welcome to Mallory & Evan’s special day! It’s bright, beautiful and full of fun! We at Cabo Flowers & Cakes loved creating the flowers and floral decor for this exuberant couple for their dream destination wedding in Cabo! Once again, we also loved working with these amazing vendors here in Cabo: Beth Dalton, owner of For You, I Do Weddings and amazing photographer, Daniel Jireh. (Thanks for sharing the photos, Daniel!)

Mallory & Evan’s chuppah (shown above) was so creative and showcased their happy personalities perfectly! Those balls are officially called “pomanders” and we were so pleased with this whimsical wedding look!

We also had a blast creating this beautiful bouquet! Mallory wanted color and succulents, and we were happy to oblige!

Her bridesmaid bouquets were similar (just a bit smaller) and added even more pops of color throughout the wedding!

One of our favorite parts of Mallory & Evan’s floral design were these luscious hair flowers! What true beauty…just what every bride wants for her wedding day!

Congratulations, Mallory & Evan! Thanks for making Cabo Flowers & Cakes such a large part of your special day!

REAL LIFE WEDDING – JESSICA & JOSH – SUNSET DA MONA LISA RESTAURANT

December 12, 2015 admin Leave a comment

When Jessica & Josh shared their wedding design concept with us, they knew they wanted elegance! They had an amazing location for their Cabo wedding, at the world famous Sunset Da Mona Lisa Restaurant overlooking Monuments Beach and our thrilling Arch, and they wanted that to shine.

But they also wanted flowers and decor for both their ceremony and their reception that were special and glamourous!

We love what we created for them, in their theme colors of white, blush pink and gold. Take a look! (Photo credit: Sara Richardson Photography)
