| Bridesmaids of a traditional Indian wedding with flowers by Stein Your Florist Co. |
We
love that in the floral industry everyone is our customer. People from all
cultures, backgrounds and walks of life enjoy the beauty of flowers and
incorporate them into their lives.
We’ve
had the recent pleasure of working with more of our kin from the Indian
community. Their culture is rich and beautiful and flowers
charmingly represent the country’s unity in the form of diversity, liveliness
and generosity.

| Bride & Groom of a traditional Indian wedding with flowers by Stein Your Florist Co. |
A single flower or a bunch of flowers can gladden the mind
and confer prosperity. In various Indian traditions flowers have been
associated with the Creator, religion, worship and with innumerable myths and
legends across history. Similarly, flowers have forever remained an integral
part of everyday life and culture.
We embraced the beauty of India and the fun of the
Bollywood movie scene in some of our recent floral designs. We strive to
represent all cultural communities in our work and love the wonderful
opportunities we are granted to share our designs with the world!
We adorned our lovely model with flowers for her hair and
wrist. We choose colorful assorted blooms to represent the fun and levity
associated with Bollywood films.
The brightly colored sari she’s wearing, as well as, the
blue sari with strands of 14 karat gold spun through it that is draped over the
small table, were both given to us by a customer who had traveled to India.
Her
jewelry is authentic Indian jewelry, for sale in our stores, that was brought
to us from India by the owner of one of our neighboring businesses when he
traveled home to visit family.
We
filled our pretty peacock pottery with stock flowers, liatris, spray roses,
stargazer lilies, iris, tuberose and delphinium with a tail of peacock
feathers. In Hindu mythology the peacock is a sacred bird, known as Mayura, and
is associated with a number of gods and deities.
We
look forward to continuing to work with our diverse community and learning more
about the world’s cultures and their beauty.
Flowers make the moment...
