Destination weddings are an awesome idea for adventure, stunning locations and unforgettable memories. But they also present a few challenges that take a little more thought. If you are the type of bride who wants to know what the plan is, destination weddings often require a bit of trust. One are that you can have complete control over is by ordering custom silk wedding flowers to take along on your destination wedding. Jamiah was one of those brides who had a destination wedding planned but wanted more say in her wedding flowers. She was a breeze to work with as we designed her custom silk wedding flowers for her destination wedding. Let’s take a look at some amazing photographs of her beach wedding from the amazing Gisselle Photography. You can also find her here on Instagram: Gisselle Gonzalez on Instagram
I love that Jamiah’s dress had such beautiful detail in the sleeves and the beading on the dress. She wanted a bouquet that wasn’t overly large but included some touches of tropical colors, some variety in texture and some classic tropical greenery. Her round handtied bouquet was a mix of Tropical style with nude Roses, champagne mini Roses, white Orchids, white Anthurium, white Anemone, cream Lisianthus, peach Ranunculus, Protea, rust garden Roses, Monstera leaves and a bit of Fern. I designed the bouquet to lay flat so that she could easily pack it in her suitcase.
The bridesmaids wore these lovely jewel-tone dark teal dresses that really allowed the white and soft peach flowers to really pop. Their bouquet were also round handtied style with a mix of the same flowers from the bridal bouquet, except the Orchids and rust Garden Roses. We also changed the Protea to be a softer peach color. Jamiah liked the idea of her bouquet being a little bolder than the bridesmaids.
“I found Erin while from a Google search in a somewhat confused desperation, unwilling to pay $1000+ for local florals for my destination wedding that I wouldn’t be able to keep, let alone travel home with. I am not a creative person, so from the start of communication with Erin I left much of the imagination to her. She was so patient in finding flowers that would make an arrangement to fit my theme and coordinate well. Despite my indecision and the back and forth, Erin was able to create absolutely stunning arrangements — from the wedding party to my bridal bouquet. She truly brought our vision to life, and we couldn’t have been happier with how everything turned out! Un-funny story: Erin shipped my flowers around mid-December and my bridesmaid was sure hers didn’t arrive despite triple-checking the tracking. I informed Erin and without hesitation, she was about to make another bouquet. Thankfully, my bridesmaid found her bouquet box as it had been mistaken for a Christmas present and hidden away, but Erin’s willingness to make a replacement was incredibly comforting during such a stressful time. Erin’s patience, communication and creativity was uncomplicated, direct and flexible. I truly appreciated how thoughtful and responsive she was during my planning. We received so many compliments on the flowers, and it’s all thanks to Erin’s talent and attention to detail. Her professionalism and creativity made the entire process seamless, and we are so grateful for all the hard work she put into making our day so special. I will treasure my bouquet for a lifetime.”
The groom and groomsmen flowers were a little more simple in style with a white Anemone and some smaller tropical greens.
