Bringing Monet’s Garden to Life: A Floral Installation for a Milestone Celebration

on By

In the world of event design, every new project is a canvas awaiting the bold strokes of creativity. Recently, we had the pleasure of transforming a private Atlanta residence into a living tableau inspired by Claude Monet’s iconic gardens for an 80th birthday celebration. We invited you to take a peek behind the scenes as the Topher Mack Floral & Events team transforms this serene space with a burst of colors and textures inspired by the master himself.

Every petal, every leaf is a brushstroke, and the garden was our canvas. With teamwork and precision, we crafted not just decor, but an immersive experience that guests will remember for years to come. It takes more than just skills; it requires passion to create floral artistry that speaks. Here you see our team, led by our talented floral director, Nancy, merging creativity and technique to mirror the vibrancy and softness of Monet’s impressionist touch.

As the installation takes form, notice how the natural light dances through the colors, creating a living painting that even Monet would admire. This is where nature meets art, through the dedicated hands of our floral team.

Thank you for joining us behind the scenes. Each event is a journey, and each creation is a story. Subscribe for more behind-the-scenes and continue to explore the artistry that flowers can bring into one’s life.
