An opulent and magical floral roadshow.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Florist Karen Tran has been cultivating a reputation as one of the world\u2019s best floral designers since she first helped a friend with her wedding flowers, more than 20 years ago. Since those simple beginnings, she has built a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.karentran.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">business for wedding florals<\/a> that now spans the globe, and she works with some of the best people in the wedding industry, including The Savoy\u2019s resident planner, <a href=\"http:\/\/bybrucerussell.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Bruce Russell<\/a>. We are constantly amazed by Karen\u2019s creations (and you will be too, when you cast your eye over the gallery below) that she carefully crafts for brides in the most beautiful wedding locations; beaches, gardens, and 5 star hotels.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Karen-Tran-Floral-Class.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Enter the wondrous world of Karen Tran with The Floral Experience\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-99327\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Karen-Tran-Floral-Class.jpg\" alt=\"Karen Tran The Floral Experience\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Enter the wondrous world of Karen Tran with The Floral Experience\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-99327\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Karen-Tran-Floral-Class.jpg\" alt=\"Karen Tran The Floral Experience\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/1486870_738997442794883_1573278913_n.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Enter the wondrous world of Karen Tran with The Floral Experience\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-99324\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/1486870_738997442794883_1573278913_n.jpg\" alt=\"Karen Tran The Floral Experience\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Enter the wondrous world of Karen Tran with The Floral Experience\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-99324\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/1486870_738997442794883_1573278913_n.jpg\" alt=\"Karen Tran The Floral Experience\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/elegant-maui-wedding.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Enter the wondrous world of Karen Tran with The Floral Experience\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-99326\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/elegant-maui-wedding.jpg\" alt=\"Karen Tran The Floral Experience\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Enter the wondrous world of Karen Tran with The Floral Experience\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-99326\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/elegant-maui-wedding.jpg\" alt=\"Karen Tran The Floral Experience\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/beautiful-feminine-wedding-flowers.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Enter the wondrous world of Karen Tran with The Floral Experience\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-99325\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/beautiful-feminine-wedding-flowers.jpg\" alt=\"Karen Tran The Floral Experience\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Enter the wondrous world of Karen Tran with The Floral Experience\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-99325\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/beautiful-feminine-wedding-flowers.jpg\" alt=\"Karen Tran The Floral Experience\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Vintage-wedding-silver-candelabra-lace-runner1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Enter the wondrous world of Karen Tran with The Floral Experience\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-99322 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Vintage-wedding-silver-candelabra-lace-runner1.jpg\" alt=\"Karen Tran The Floral Experience\" width=\"800\" height=\"1200\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Enter the wondrous world of Karen Tran with The Floral Experience\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-99322 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Vintage-wedding-silver-candelabra-lace-runner1.jpg\" alt=\"Karen Tran The Floral Experience\" width=\"800\" height=\"1200\" \/><\/noscript><\/a>In more recent years, however, Karen has branched into full blown event transformation, and is bringing her expertise to leagues of florists and planners, from San Diego to London to Bali to Brisbane, in her <a href=\"http:\/\/thefloralexperience.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Floral Experience<\/a> masterclass.
