Happy New Year y’all!  We are overwhelmingly excited to welcome you to our new website and blog!  This past year was filled to the brim with pinch-me moments and an overall sense of newness and adventure.

We embarked on a new chapter by moving into a new studio space at the Goat Farm, our little rustic-industrial slice of heaven hidden in West Midtown. Yes, there are goats (and chickens, and roosters, and a big fat turkey).  And yes there is a farm!  And we’re pretty lucky gals to share the space with stylist-extraordinaire Ginny Branch.  And obviously we got a new [digital] space as well – welcome!

We hosted our inaugural flower workshop (see more of the photos here!) and spent the day with an incredible group of women, a collection of new faces and familiar favorites.  (Stay tuned – we are in the planning phases and will be announcing our next workshop soon!)

We worked on some, quite frankly, gorgeous weddings, and made so many new friends along the way.  We are so lucky to work with brides with some impeccable visions.  Take a look through our galleries to see some of our favorites, and we promise there are lots of blog posts to come!

We celebrated checking off a big item on our bucket list… and were humbled by the opportunity.  

We collaborated with terrifically talented folks in our industry.  Visit our new links page to take a look at some of the people we truly love.

We laughed at our hiccups along the way.  We took risks and lived to tell the tales (which we will definitely share over coffee and something sweet).

We owe a huge, huge thank you to the lovely Meagan Gibson, who worked tirelessly with us to create our new home here on the interweb. Thank you for giving us what we have been waiting for for ohhh so long.  And even our logo got a little facelift!

2011 was a very good year and we are already high-fiving each other with what is in store for 2012… Check back in with us, we will be sharing some of our favorite weddings from 2011 (seriously, there are a lot)!  Until then, we hope you like the new site!  And we hope to cross paths with you in 2012.

Sometimes it’s hard to believe we’ve been doing this for so many years! Have you been following the blog for a while? Or if you’re new to the blog, welcome! We’ve pulled together some images to give you a fresh look on what we have been up to. Or please feel free to explore our archives for full features on all of the images below. Here’s a peek into who we are…

Amy Osaba event.floral.design was launched in 2002 and quickly became recognized as one of the leading event design firms in the Southeast.

Amy’s theatrical background has undoubtedly influenced her signature style, intuitively using a variety of textures and co-mingling fruits, vegetables, antique vessels and textiles to create unique and yet timeless works of art.

While our emphasis is on designing lush, free, handpicked florals, we are a full event design studio and delight in bringing our client’s entire vision to life. From designing your entire invitation suite, to selecting the perfect linens to creating the right atmosphere through lighting, no detail is forgotten. In fact, our entire team has extensive experience planning, designing, and executing events from start to finish.

Our work has been featured in print in The Atlantan Brides, Atlanta Weddings, Southern Weddings, Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles, and Occasions, as well as online at 100 Layer Cake, Green Wedding Shoes, Once Wed, Weddings Unveiled, and Style Me Pretty, just to name a few. What means the most, however, are the sweet words of thanks we get from our clients:

“Thank you for making my daughter’s wedding special, beautiful, and most memorable. You are true professionals.”

“From day one, you have always been so excited for my big day, which seems crazy considering how many brides you work with throughout the year. Thank you for always making me feel special. You are the best!!”

“I am so glad that I left everything in your hands because I could never have made anything so beautiful. There are truly no words to describe how I felt when I saw everything…all I can say is thank you.”

Plain and simple: we love what we do! There are also some really exciting things coming up which you’ll hear all about in upcoming posts. We look forward to crossing paths with you…

So excited to be a part of the Not Wedding again this year. It was such a great experience for me last time, and I am just thrilled. Lauren of Once Like a Spark asked me to do flowers for the adorable engagement shoot – all of which I picked right out of my mom’s garden! Check out the whole shoot today over on 100 Layer Cake. This is going to be a really awesome event – tickets are going fast, so be sure to buy yours soon! And food by Sun in My Belly!
