Elijah contacted me about a very unique bouquet he wanted to order for his fiancée’ in silk wedding flowers. He had an inspiration picture that we worked really hard to duplicate. The original bouquet had white Casablanca Lilies, lots of Spray Roses and Delphinium buds that trailed down the front in two distinct pieces. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to find Delphinium buds that were as large or as prolific as what he wanted. I found some mini Peony buds and, of all things, Hops that I mixed together to mimic the look of the trailing bud vines. For the greenery I added in some pieces of Smilax for a nice dark contrast to all the white flowers.
Elijah’s fiancée had a very specific vision for this bouquet, based off a bouquet she had seen a photo of and loved. This can be a tricky situation since I’m not working with the exact same material and had to make some substitutions. I asked Elijah each step along the way for his approval before coming up with the final design you see. There were some expectations that had to be adjusted, but Elijah was a great communicator and honest with me about he liked and didn’t like, what worked and what didn’t.
