Ashley Elaine Florals www.ashleyelaine.ca C reate and share beauty through flowers. Whether you are getting married, hosting a special gathering or corporate event my purpose and design philosophy remains the same. Driven by a pure love and appreciation for flowers, and plant life in general, my design style is heavily influenced by the garden. While I wouldn’t call myself an expert (or even mediocre) gardener, I always draw inspiration from it for my designs. Particularly the English cottage style garden and it’s closely layered, informal plantings, overflowing with texture and bursting with color all the while keeping it together like some sort of beautifully organized chaos. I lean towards using a wide variety of flowers and foliage in my designs, with a strong focus on seasonal and locally grown product. 52 Georgian Bay Wedding Guide – 2020 Established in 2015, Ashley Elaine Florals is a design studio that specializes in providing timeless, garden style floral arrange- ments and creative installations for weddings and events.
