Sunflowers and Succulents in Silk Wedding Flowers

Alexandra’s modified cascading silk bridal bouquet was a little bit wild and a lot bright and sunny. This custom wedding flower design for her spring wedding incorporates Sunflowers, Succulents, Craspedia, Freesia, Mini Mums, Heather, Twigs, Smilax, Amaranthus, and Vegmo.

The silk bridesmaid bouquets included all the same flowers but in a more round style and with an asymmetrical design that incorporated one large succulent.

This smaller package of flowers included just a few boutonnieres to match. I liked the idea of not going with a traditional look of one larger flower, greens and ribbon. For the groom’s boutonniere, I used a Craspedia, mini Mums, Vegmo, Heather, and greens with a twig to match the bridal bouquet. The groomsmen's’ boutonnieres had a mini Sunflower, mini Mums, Heather and greens.

Alexandra chose to have a custom altar arrangements made to match. I decided to once again go the non-traditional route with an asymmetrical arrangement that incorporated all the same flowers and elements of the bridal bouquet including the twigs and greenery. This table spray will be an awesome accent piece for their ceremony.

Cascading Silk Bridal Bouquet with Purple Flowers

Purple is an awesome color and looks fantastic in weddings of all seasons. Lighter tones look great for summer and spring and darker tones work well in fall and winter. And you really can’t go wrong by using darker and lighter tones together for silk wedding flowers and bridal bouquets. Take Wendy’s bouquet for example. Her cascading silk bridal bouquet included Peonies, Roses and Calla Lilies in shades of white and ivory along with Violets in a deeper purple and Lavender in, well, lavender. She liked the idea of some greenery in there, so we added a few varieties including Fern, Rosemary sprigs and Ficus for a very timeless look.

Wendy also needed two custom altar arrangements with silk wedding flowers for her ceremony. She already had 2 quart Mason jars she planned to use for the vases, so I created two of these matching arrangements to just drop into her jars on the big day.

Silk Wedding Bouquet Recreation- Navy and Ivory

Take a look at this pretty bouquet that was a silk wedding recreation for a bride from Staten Island, New York.

If you like the look of ivory and navy, check out these other bouquets:
-Navy, Blush and Gold
-Nautical Inspired Wedding
-Blue and Ivory Spring Wedding Flowers
-Bouquet Recreation
-Slate Blue Wedding Flowers

This recreation consisted of ivory Roses, white Stock, and blue Gypsophilia (Baby's Breath) finished off with a beautiful Antique White ribbon that fits right between the ivory and white flowers.

Maria, chose to not have the gems added into her bouquet, but as you can see from this beautiful photo provided by Express It Video & Photography that her recreation is still amazing and really captures the design and beauty of her original bridal bouquet.

I loved my wedding bouquet and was so sad when it dried up. I contacted a few places but Love Is Blooming is the only one who answered me right away. I was notified and sent pictures of each step and was asked questions to make sure everything was the way I wanted. Any questions I had were answered within a day. I am in love with my new bouquet. The first time I saw my bouquet, it brought back memories to when I saw my bouquet the day of my wedding. Now I get to look at my bouquet every day and remember that day forever!!

Maria also sent me a photo after she received her bridal bouquet recreation in silk flowers. She had saved the rhinestones from her wedding day and was able to add them back in herself. Take a look!

April Snow Showers bring May Silk Wedding Flowers!

May is always a popular month to get married. Things feel fresh and bright and it's the start of something new. There are tons of color options for May silk wedding flowers and really anything goes! From the pinks and purples, to coral and red (check back next week to see that lovely color combo), to a classic blue and white like Mary and Jason's flowers.

As a friend of the bride and groom, it was fun to talk with them about their long anticipated wedding.  Having been together for over a decade, they were more than ready to make their plans become a reality. Mary has had her dress for a while and she wanted her flowers to complement the blue accents on her bridal gown.

I found some pretty blue Hydrangea, dark blue Roses, and we added in some white Calla Lilies (these fresh touch Callas are the best!) and tied it off with some silver ribbon. Her bridesmaids will carry a smaller version of Mary's bouquet and the toss bouquet is a simple clutch of blue Hydrangea and white Callas. I left some greenery and added some berries for a fresh from the garden look.

The boutonnieres and corsages in the same high quality silk flowers were a perfect match to the bouquets.

Creating wedding flowers is a special job because it's helping a couple celebrate one of the happiest days of their lives. It's even better when you're doing it for friends! Thanks Jason and Mary for asking me to be a part of such a special day!
