Geraldines in downtown Austin is such a wonderful place to host corporate events and groundbreaking ceremony parties. Here was a fun event for the Waterloo Waterline skyrise groundbreaking event. Buie and Co. did the planning Geraldines did the catering from their restaurant, and it was perfect. We did premium orchid modern flower mixtures with green moder accents and tropical leaves for a more corporate style and theme along with pillar candles and cocktail table arrangements for the smaller tables.

800 Congress Havana Night
Stepping into Havana: A Tropical Corporate Event in Austin
Welcome to a spectacular corporate event that transported guests straight to a vibrant, tropical paradise! When Waterloo Creative brought us on board to design the floral and decor for a Havana Nights themed party at 800 Congress, the Jordan Flowers & Events team knew it was time to bring the heat. If you are looking for an austin florist to completely transform a space, this incredible austin party is the perfect inspiration.
The Grand Entrance
First impressions are everything. As guests walked into the venue, they were immediately greeted by a massive, show-stopping orchid and palm installation. We carefully selected the most vibrant fresh flower varieties to set an energetic, tropical mood from the very first step. Designing impactful entrance pieces is one of the many reasons we strive to be the best austin florist for immersive, experiential events.
Lush Tablescapes and Indoor Jungles
The main dining area was an absolute tropical dream. To create that authentic Havana club atmosphere, we designed towering large palm arrangements displayed on elegant gold stands, drawing the eye upward toward the incredible atmosphere created by Austin Event Lighting.
Down the center of the gorgeous green tables, we placed lush tropical flowers and scattered candles everywhere. The warm, flickering candlelight glowing against the rich linens, woven rattan chargers, and modern pink chairs created an incredibly inviting ambiance. As an experienced austin event florist, we love playing with height, texture, and light to bring a theme to life.
To complete the immersive Havana vibe, we brought in loads of our fresh palm tree and plant rental options. Surrounding the dining space with vibrant greenery completely turned the industrial-chic venue into a lush, indoor jungle. This is exactly what top-tier austin event floral and decor looks like!

Austin Symphony Orchestra atJunior League
A Maestro's Dream: Vibrant Floral Design for the Austin Symphony Orchestra
When bringing a visionary theme to life, the right combination of design, lighting, and spectacular blooms makes all the difference. We recently had the incredible opportunity to serve as the event florist for a breathtaking evening supporting the Austin Symphony Orchestra at the Junior League of Austin. Masterfully planned by Pink Cactus Productions, this unforgettable texas event was a true celebration of artistry, where the musical genius of the past met the vibrant energy of the future.
Surreal Design Meets Historical Inspiration
The event's theme, "Maestro's Dream: Journey Through Time", called for an imaginative and immersive atmosphere. As your dedicated austin florist, we stepped away from traditional palettes and fully embraced bright, vibrant colors, utilizing striking shades of fuchsia, pink, purple, and teal.
Our tablescapes were designed to be conversation starters. We incorporated surrealist, time-bending elements like melting clocks nestled directly into the lush centerpieces alongside classic hourglasses. To honor the historical music influences, elegant gold frames featuring classical portraits were paired with bright teal vases bursting with deep purple and magenta blooms. To complete the moody, theatrical glow, we illuminated the vibrant austin flowers using our stunning collection of candelabras, classic pillar candles, and gold mercury pillar candles.
An Immersive Floral Experience
Providing the best austin event flowers means creating a sensory journey from the very first step inside the venue. Guests were immediately greeted by the enchanting sounds of a live harpist, seated on a podium completely enveloped in full, lush floral arrangements.
As attendees moved toward the main entertainment space, the stage served as a breathtaking focal point. We framed the entire stage with magnificent blooms resting on top of facades, with flowers dramatically cascading down the front of our rental columns. This seamless integration of fresh botanicals and premium rental decor perfectly bridged the gap between architecture and nature, showcasing exactly what the best luxury flower and florists can bring to a large-scale production.
A Symphony of Event Partners
A production of this magnitude requires an ensemble of incredible vendors. Ilios Lighting brought the "future meets past" vision to life with custom illumination, while Party at the Moontower and Premiere Events provided the exquisite lounge furnishings and foundational event rentals. Guests enjoyed culinary masterpieces by Soho Catering and were captivated by the strolling entertainment and whimsical performers from Artisan Oddities.
Of course, the magic of our event rental flowers and the vibrant energy of the night were flawlessly captured by the talented lenses of @erikarichphoto and @kellyzhuphoto.
Creating this time-bending, musical dreamscape was an absolute joy for our floral team.
