A Shower for Two - PEARbaby, Buffalo NY

Filed Under: Showers

First off, I want to say that I love the name PEAR Planning. It just resonates as what it is- festive, fun and fresh. Secondly, I noticed immediately that their website was user-friendly. especially finding the social media buttons. I could tell that the owner Shannon was forward thinking and just really like her whole branding. That's the businesswoman in me talking; now onto the main event.

Per Shannon, "This was for PEAR first launch of our new division PEARbaby. It also happened to be my only sisters baby shower :) for twins! When designing the floral I had three specific words in mind - {modern} {relevant} {bold}. They flowers were by Whistle Stop Florist. My esthetic for design focuses on those defining words and what seems to set us apart from the current Trend of vintage pale and soft."

I agree with you Shannon, which is probably why I love this so much! What I noticed about this shower were the details. I love the green buttons strung from wire above, and how the florals are gender-neutral, modern, fresh, and still sophisticated. I love the color palette too! How gorgeous is that?!?! So good!!!!! I'm not a huge fan of iris (in the largest arrangement), but it just goes so well with everything. I also don't love bud vases, but again, this is done so well! 

Shannon told me, "The theme for the event was the "perfect pair" and we gravitated toward the green aspect of a pear. My sisters favorite color is purple so it was only natural when the florist recommended eggplant anemones I was in love. We also brought in ceramic abstract pear vases to give a nod to the theme but not overwhelm the event with it. Color coordinated buttons were used as an accent since commonly used in children's designs. We wanted to keep the floral arrangements intriguing and read as a piece of art. 
It was the florals that completely transformed this event into a special occasion."
