Three Midtown properties — including those home to the recently closed Rotier’s and to Emma’s Flowers and Gifts — are under contract to be sold.Multiple sources have told the Post Brentwood-based GBT Realty plans to buy the three properties.

Shopping for holiday decor at the L.A. flower mart - Los Angeles Times

And don’t expect fake trees or snow flocking on branches at any of their events for Malibu plant-based skin care brand Osea or swanky fashion and jewelry boutique Capitol + Irene Neuwirth in Brentwood or in their arrangements at the Tasting Kitchen in Venice.Instead, they’re known for a rustic sensibility that can be seen in their custom gift boxes and hundreds of premade bouquets they sell at all Erewhon stores. Their inspiration this holiday is “Winter Forest.” So look for eucalyptus pods, winterberries, magnolia leaves, lichen-covered branches, blue ice cypress and hemlock to remind you that decorating with nature really is about what grows outside. “The whole point is to bring wilderness into your home,” says Juhos. “We believe in more of a winter vibe for the holidays.” And they’re certain the rest of us can pull this off too. Or at least try. Holiday orchids at the Los Angeles Flower Market.(Al Seib / Los Angeles Times) We got up early and went wild retail harvesting with the pair at the Southern California Flower Market and Original Los Angeles Flower Market to see exactly how Juhos and Renna envision a winter forest, without going near a single silver spray-painted branch. Advertisement What does “Winter Forest” mean to you?Juhos: “It’s England, cozy, not wet but damp, think evergreen, snow, the smell of juniper and pine and that feeling you get when you walk into the mountains and being in that environment.”What about using what’s in your... https://www.latimes.com/lifestyle/story/2019-12-14/browsing-the-la-flower-mart

A Perfumer’s Fragrant Flower Salad - The New York Times

The florist business his parents ran — the Woods, which catered to celebrities and the Four Seasons Hotel — was across the street from Mezzaluna, the Brentwood trattoria that vaulted to notoriety during the O. J. Simpson trial. The family had an account at the restaurant, so it became the place where young Ezra developed his palate. Now 35 and the co-founder of the boutique fragrance brand Régime des Fleurs, Woods has found two new ways to combine his obsessions: He makes edible scents and he cooks with edible flowers. “I love nothing more than flowers,” he says. “There’s something magical about being able to eat something so beautiful.”[Coming soon: the T List newsletter, a weekly roundup of what T Magazine editors are noticing and coveting. Sign up here.]ImageFlowers inspire everything about Régime des Fleurs, from its name to its scents, and Woods isn’t picky about which ones he puts in his salad. While the flavor is generally mild, the visual impact is anything but.CreditJulia StotzTo be clear, most of his fragrances — ones that conjure up palo santo and musk — are not meant to be digested. But his latest scent, Citri, a “citrus mélange,” available starting June 5, is the brand’s second edible product and a companion to the Los Angeles chef Lori Stern’s new cookbook of the same name. “You spray it on food or drink as a kind of finisher,” Woods says. “It’s very aromatic, o... https://www.nytimes.com/2019/06/05/t-magazine/ezra-woods-flower-salad.html

Coco Shop Designer Taylor Simmons Wore Floral Oscar de la Renta for Her Outdoor Ceremony Overlooking the Ocean - Vogue

It was a sophisticated detail that made it feel even more like we were inviting everyone into our home,” Taylor says. Jameson’s father, who was unable to fly to the wedding from California, grows grapes and makes wine in Mendocino County, California. He provided wine with personalized labels commemorating the original November date. “I love that Jameson had a little bit of home with him in Massachusetts that day through the wine,” Taylor says. At 1:30 p.m., guests were invited to sit for lunch, which took place steps away under a tent on the home’s grass terrace. The terrace perfectly fit two tables and allowed for seating at a distance. “I made the table cloths and napkins out of Coco Shop fabric, and Laura, the... https://www.vogue.com/slideshow/taylor-simmons-jameson-mcfadden-cape-cod-wedding

Coronavirus foils wedding plans — for Bay Area workers - Vallejo Times-Herald

Artisans, professionals and hourly workers in California’s booming wedding industry are scrambling as nuptials are postponed or canceled, said Richard Markel, president of the Association for Wedding Professionals International. About a quarter-million couples tie the knot in California each year, spending an average of about $25,000 on a ceremony — although the Bay Area and Wine Country are more expensive, he said.Planners are concerned the statewide shelter-in-place will stretch into their busy season, which usually begins in June, he said. “It’s going to get a little hairier.”Eileen Lacey, owner of E Events in Santa Cruz, now has clients postponing June ceremonies. She’s resisted layoffs for her three employees, who help manage weddings from Carmel to Wine Country and beyond for national and international clients.Lacey has spent weeks rescheduling events. She’s not charging for the complicated work. “I’m just doing it,” she said. “Everyone’s trying to do what they can.”Carlie Statsky, a Santa Cruz-based photographer, typically shoots about 20 weddings a year. It’s been a steady business for two decades — until now. Her March was canceled, her April events postponed, and now May is starting to look iffy, she said.Statsky has changed focus. She’s directing customers to her print shop on Etsy, and emailing past clients about ordering wedding albums and new prints of their nuptials.Statsky spotted another opportunity in the work-from-home customers. She’s invited people to send in photos of their rooms, and she’s suggested new prints from her collection of Big Sur and nature photos. “People are using this time to redecorate,” she said.Caterers have tried to shift into home delivery and pick-up services, but layoffs are widespread.Berkeley-based caterer Mixing Bowl has laid-off staff as events have been canceled or postponed, said vice president of marketing Maria Kuzmina. The company is trying to switch its business to sell directly to customers, but it needs more delivery drivers and customer service representatives. “We’re trying to create a whole new platform,” she said. “It’s tricky.”The company has reached out to hospitals and health care facilities, offering to bring lunches and dinners at cost to first responders, she said. But healthcare workers are busy caring for virus victims.Liza Bagerman, a San Francisco event planner with her own business, Studio DBI, has been rescheduling weddings for more than a month. She thought she had prepared for the worst-case scenario, but not “a world-wide pandemic.”She wakes up every morning, she says, thinking about ways to generate income. Bagerman knows she’s not alone. “I think the events world is going to be forever changed,” she said. “The answer is still a question mark.”In Palo Alto, the bouquets have been selling briskly, Minerva said. She hopes her temporary change in business plan gets her through the crisis.After all, she’s filled the yard with flowers, and the irises, pansies and roses bloom next. https://www.timesheraldonline.com/2020/04/03/coronavirus-foils-wedding-plans-for-workers
