Two of the world's most original florists will display their creations at The Bride Show today (Saturday) evening at the Dubai International Exhibition Centre. 

Space & Flower, run by a husband and wife team, Virginie and Olivier Dolz, who recently relocated from Paris to Dubai in October 2007, is making a huge impact on discerning customers who want to step away from traditional flower arrangements and take a fresh new look at how flowers can enhance any event.

“Having visited Dubai for a family wedding, we saw a gap in the market for beautiful floral arrangements with simplicity at its core,” said Virginie Dolz, the creative force behind the company.  “We cater to all weddings and all budgets but the sky is the limit in terms of imagination and design.”

Another Parisian import to the UAE bridal industry is Dellisse, an award winning chocolatier and floral creation company.  Specialising in customised, one-of-a-kind, handmade chocolates and floral arrangements, Dellisse have brought their unique and glamorous services to the largest bridal event in the Middle East.
 
Isabelle Jaouen, originally a lawyer in Paris, is using 'The Bride Show Dubai' as a launch pad for Dellisse’s newest, most eccentric product yet, “Rose Truffles.”

A fusion of white chocolate, almonds and rose petals, this haute couture of chocolates is sure to make a wedding the talk of the town.

Dellisse’s floral creations won’t take a backseat to their tasty treats either, with unusual materials, such as macaroni, cement and milk, all having recently been utilised to make one of a kind concepts. 

These are flowers that make a statement, as seen when the distinguishing arrangements were included in the catwalk show finale of local wedding dress designer, Arushi, which saw models wearing ‘organic’ veils, she said. 

A perfect wedding is comprised of a plethora of elements.  Creating a unique and inspiring atmosphere to mark the first day as husband and wife can be challenging when one has to consider the fashion, beauty, venue, music and guests.  Flowers can be the ideal accessory to fuse the entire wedding experience, the perfect frame for the bride and groom.

The brides-to-be have can find their perfect flowers and chocolates at The Bride Show, as well as see more than 400 exhibitors from 13 countries, displaying European wedding dresses, international jewellery, perfume, and fashion accessories, said the organisers IIR Middle East.

The Bride Show Dubai  is a four-day showcase of haute couture fashion, luxury wedding products and all the services necessary for a bride’s big day.

Women’s Healthcare and Al Bayt Al Arabie, the UAE’s only Arabian home show, run alongside The Bride Show.  All three exhibitions are open to the public from 2.30pm-10.30pm, attracting women who are interested in fashion, luxury and wellbeing.-TradeArabia News Service
