Ichibana in Virginia Beach?!?! You betchya

Yesterday I received a call to do last minute flower arrangements for a fancy dinner party at a beach house in Virginia Beach. All I was told was plexiglass chairs, irises, and modern interior decor. I was a little nervous coming up with a design idea as the style in VA Beach is classic and let progressive than in other places across the country. However, we all know that if someone is using plexiglass chairs they are down with something modern and unique.

Ichibana has always been a style that I've liked and growing up in a minimalistic household I knew this style very well. I incorporated rocks (to reflect the beach location), irises (per request) and glass cube vases (for the modern twist) to create an ichibana-esk arrangement. Below is what I came up with - keep in mind that there will be numerous of these arrangements lining the tables. Enjoy!
