Has Laura Coleman Flowers got the Badminton X-Factor!

Last weekend Laura headed to Liverpool on Saturday and Sunday to deliver flowers for the European Badminton Championships. We had a great time working on the event, and here are some behind the scenes pics.

On Saturday we delivered 28 bouquets, and the remaining 28 were delivered on the Sunday, in readiness for the tense final where the England Badminton team were competing.

Picking up the brand colours, the flowers included fuscia pink singapore orchids, bright white anthurium, china grass, strong green aspidistra leaves and gorgeous pink cordyline leaves. It was all wrapped up in lovely lengths of purple and turquoise ribbons! The X-Factors Laura White was also a fan, and was presented with her very own bouquet by the England team on Sunday, when they were crowned silver medallists.
Hope you like all our pics!

Our flowers at the National Badminton Championships!

The Manchester Velodrome has been transformed! It's been changed into a top class badminton venue for the weekend to host the English National Badminton Championships.

Here is a picture of the flowers that we have done for the tables. Loads of orchids in a tall cocktail vase, and wires bound together reflecting the branding of the event!

It really was great fun installing the flowers yesterday....while we set up, members of the British Cycling squad were in a training session on the track in the velodrome!

Have a look at our website
www.lauracolemanflowers.co.uk so see what other events we have been involved in, and feel free to get in touch!

Setting up in the midst of future Olympians, you couldn't ask for a better job!

Hope you like the pics!
