Most of the recreations that I create only have pictures for me to examine, and some come with an invoice or description from the florist. While that might seem like a winning combination, it’s not always helpful because fresh florists often make last minute substitutions based on availability, quality and cost. I know I’ve said it a lot on my blog, but one of the best things about custom silk wedding flowers is that you will know exactly what you are getting for your big day. There are never last minute substitutions or surprises.
Mychal reached out to me about a bouquet recreation for his April anniversary and sent me several photos of the bouquet along with list of what was in the bouquet. After comparing the photos to the list, it was a one of the closest matches I’ve seen yet! Let’s take a look at Mychal’s custom bridal bouquet recreation in silk flowers alongside the original in these photos from Jessica Wall Photography.
According to Mychal’s list this round handtied bridal bouquet was a mixture of Sandstone Roses, blush pink Roses, cream Mums, white Carnations, blue Hydrangea, blue Delphinium and blush pink Spray Roses. I also noticed white Baby’s Breath and Eucalyptus which Mychal agreed needed to be included to complete the look. It’s always helpful to have a few sets of eyes to look for all the different components.
Whether I get high resolution photos, screen shots or scanned images from old photos, I do my absolute best to recreate the bouquet as close to the original as possible.
“Erin is a truly gifted artist, she was able to take a few blurry photos from my wedding and recreate my wife’s bouquet perfectly! She checked in regularly to get my input, and completed it faster than expected. I highly recommend Love Is Blooming!”
Don’t have a list from your florist but still hope to have your bouquet recreated. Send me your photos with all your important details included and let’s work together on recreating a beautiful bouquet for someone you love!
