Blush and Ivory Silk Wedding Flowers with Custom Dog Collar
It’s fun (and flattering) when brides see one of my bouquets and use it as the inspiration photo for their own custom silk wedding flowers. We had talked through a few ideas, but when bride Tammy saw these bouquets, she knew what direction she wanted her designs to go.
Her colors were blush and ivory and she wanted to make sure the flowers didn’t get too pink but rather leaned towards the peach side of blush. I gave a few options, but I ended up experimenting with custom dyeing some flowers and we nailed it on the color. Take a look at the designs we came up with together.
The bridal bouquet was a modified cascade style with blush Cabbage Roses, ivory with blush center Dahlia, ivory Garden Roses, blush Heather and lots of Lamb’s Ear. Soft, romantic-all the things you want in a bridal bouquet!
The bridesmaid bouquets were a mix of the same flowers in a round handtied style with Antique White ribbon, the same color we used on the bridal bouquet. It’s one of my favorite colors because it goes with everything (including white) and is a classic, clean look that blends in with every style and will never look outdated.
The boutonnieres were a simple mix of ivory Roses and some blush accents with Lamb’s Ear.
This was a first for me: a custom floral dog collar! Her dog is actually much smaller than my dog, Hoover, so I needed to use smaller scale flowers that still looked similar to what was in the bouquet. This wired floral collar is a mix of ivory and peach Ranunculus because they are similar shape to Cabbage Roses. I also included a few bits of blush Heather and some small sprigs of Queen Anne’s Lace to go with the Lamb’s Ear. Cute, right?!
