The chapters will focus on Bailey's inspirational elements derived from art, travel, nature, and more. Preston Bailey has established himself as the floral designer for celebrities and the affluent alike, and he continues to set the bar for event design. Over the past year, some of his clients have included Donald and Melania Trump, Regis Philbin, and Oprah Winfrey.
Disappointing The photos are beautiful, but I didn't purchase it for the photos. I purchased it to discover the use of mechanics to construct the beautiful florals. There is some text about materials used, but very little. Disappointing.
Too Over The Top! Garish and over the top almost to the point of vulgarity. Not my taste I prefer cleaner lines and less ostentatiousness.
Inspirations Although I think this book is well done, I much preferred his other books.
Beautiful pictures I bought this book so I can find ideas for my wedding decoration, it has great and beautiful pictures, but obviously it's impossible to try to imitate Preston Bailey's ideas. I do recommend this book. You can use it afterwards for a coffee table book.
chic ideas I'm an Interior Designer and this is a practical guide for clients visually. I'm not for copying works but inspiration to what we can do of endless possibilities.
