Bright Autumn Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

I’ve just got too many amazing clients sending me their wedding photos and I have to share these with you! If you are planning a 2022 fall wedding, but want it a little brighter, these silk wedding flowers are the perfect example of how to blend the two!

Take a look at these gorgeous photos by Brynn Wheatley Photography.

Jenny’s modified cascade style bridal bouquet was a mix of orange Dahlia, peach Cabbage Roses, white Cabbage Roses, red Ranunculus, orange Cosmos, blue Heather, gray Berries, and Seeded and Silver Dollar Eucalyptus. The asymmetrical shape of her modified cascade bouquet gives it a unique and modern twist on the more traditional tear drop cascade.

“Erin was wonderful to work with and did such an amazing job! She was very easy to communicate with and always quick with responses. The bouquets, boutonnieres, and corsages turned out even better than I had imagined! Erin was very helpful in picking out flowers and greens to help bring my ideas to life. The flowers all looked very real too and photographed beautifully. I’ve already recommended her to a few friends and they all had great experiences with her as well! I would definitely recommend Love is Blooming to anyone looking for silk flower arrangements!”

Look at this great looking group of people honoring and supporting the bride and groom. I love it! The bridesmaids carried loose, round handtied bridesmaid bouquets with a mix of all the same flowers as Jenny’s bouquet. I love the way the flowers pop against the dresses!

Peach, Pink, Blue, and Yellow Silk Wedding Flowers - Part 1

I love a spring bridal bouquet in silk wedding flowers. This one was especially fun to design. Caroline gave me some creative leeway in designing her custom bouquets. She knew she wanted peach, pink, blue, and yellow then let me figure out the rest. I’m excited that later this week, I can share a few of her amazing photos!

The bridal bouquet was a round handtied style that was loose and whimsical. It incorporated peach Cabbage Roses and Poppies, pink Cosmos, blue Heather and yellow Billy Buttons. I suggested some Lamb’s Ear for a soft touch of “greenery” and Caroline was game. You can’t tell from the photos but this bouquet not only looked bouncy and light and fun, but it had some movement to it that made it even more real looking!

The bridesmaid bouquets were a similar mix of flowers, but I switched out the large Poppies for smaller ones to account for the smaller bouquet size.

The boutonnieres and corsages had the same mix of bright colors and interesting textures. Each one a little different from the other, but all matched the theme and color scheme of the bouquets.

Navy, Burgundy and Bling Winter Silk Wedding Flowers- Part 1

Over the last 18 months, I’ve worked with a record number of moms and sisters to design and create the perfect wedding flower bouquets for their daughter/sister. I love that picking out flowers has become a family event for so many! Tori’s silk flowers were a great example of the design process being completed second-hand, so to speak. Her mom, Tracey, was a great communicator and was quick to pass along Tori’s feedback of my design ideas and ultimately of the silk wedding flower arrangements themselves. Let’s take a look at what we designed together!

The bridal bouquet was a modified cascade style. At first glance you may be thinking, that’s clearly the tear drop style. And you are right! Sort of;) I designed this bouquet to look good from any angle so that if she wanted to hold it straight on, it would be a tear drop cascade. Or if she wanted to show off the rhinestone wrap on the handle, it could be held so that the cascade went to the side.

The design for her bouquet included deep hues of burgundy, navy, white and silver. I wanted to incorporate various textures for this winter wedding, keeping it soft, but interesting. I used burgundy Cabbage Roses, Calla Lilies, Amaranthus and Lamb’s Ear, navy Ranunculus, white Roses and Baby’s Breath along with gray Dusty Miller and dusty green Seeded Eucalyptus for her greenery. Tracey thought Tori would like some bling, so I sprinkled both small broaches and clear crystals throughout her bouquet.

The bridesmaids carried matching bouquets with the same mix of flowers, but in loose handtied style round bouquets. I even add just a * touch * of cascading Amaranthus to theirs to give it a little something different than a typical round style bridesmaid bouquet.

*Almost* Valentine's Day Silk Wedding Flowers

You might think it’s weird to be talking about Valentine’s Day in May, but there’s Christmas in July, so why not? This week, I want to share with you two different sets of silk weddings flowers and bridal bouquets. Today, I’m sharing a wedding that was almost on Valentine’s Day (the 13th) and, a little later this week, one that was actually on Valentine’s Day. Both were pretty, both were unique, both incorporated those classic colors without being cliche’.

The bridal bouquet was a mix of Anemone, Cabbage Roses, Mums, Roses, Amaranthus, Queen Anne’s Lace, with some dusty greenery and Seeded Eucalyptus. This bouquet is a great example if you aren’t sure if you want a traditional tear drop cascade or a modified cascade. This one probably lands right between the two, though I don’t plan to make a third category of cascades. It has the element of a teardrop with a more defined linear shape, but not the tight composition that traditional teardrops usually have. But on the other hand, it doesn’t have quite the asymmetrical, branchier feel that a true modified cascade has. Perhaps this is the happy medium!

The matching groom’s boutonniere was a smaller Cabbage Rose in burgundy with a tiny bit of the blush accent and some dusty greenery. You can see that the stem was wrapped in burlap which matched the bridal bouquet. A cute complement!
