Every once in a while a color comes along and despite my 15 years in the business, I have to Google it:) I’m not afraid to admit it, but Chianti was one of those colors. I was so glad to see it on my screen because it’s a gorgeous, moody, dusty, saturated pink.
I went looking for the perfect rose for Caitlyn’s bridal bouquet in silk wedding flowers where she wanted to include a hint of Chianti to accent the blush pink, ivory and greenery. Her cascading style bridal bouquet in silk flowers includes Ranunculus, Roses, Peonies, Lamb’s Ear, Silver Dollar Eucalyptus and ivory Heather. It’s such a soft and romantic looking bouquet! I tied it off with the ever popular Antique White satin ribbon for a beautiful wedding day bouquet.
Caitlyn liked the idea of the bridesmaids carrying not only a different style bouquet but also a different combination of flowers. Each bridesmaid would carry the same blush Rose from the bridal bouquet but they would be surrounded by Baby’s Breath and Lamb’s Ear.
Boutonnieres and corsages were easy to design since her main flowers are great sizes for them. The groom and groomsmen wore the blush pink Roses and the dads wore Ranunculus. The mothers’ wrist corsages matched the fathers’ with some Baby’s Breath, blush accent and rhinestones for a little sparkle.
