Carly Blair, founder of House of Margot Blair, is responsible for the florals at many posh Austin festivities. She’s also an event planner who excels at making events aesthetically pleasing – often accomplishing this with florals. For the holidays, she says there’s really no right or wrong answer on the type of flower. “Personally, I like to steer clear of the typical holiday flowers as they tend look stiff and rigid, or even worse, ordinary,” she says, “Instead, I like to use the lush, romantic options that—garden roses, ranunculus, and hellebore just to name a few—and then adjust the color palette to suit the holiday décor.”

When ordering flowers she says, “Our flower team can work on the fly, but ordering at least two weeks in advance will allow the time needed to source more custom bloom selections.” Ask about their Margot Minis, they come in a range of sizes and make a perfect hostess gift.
