Custom Silk Flower Cake Topper - Reveal and Review

,

Earlier this summer, Rachel’s aunt reached out to me as they were trying to get someone who could recreate a a floral cake topper. The original had been made of sugar flowers and the creator was in the UK, so there wasn’t a way to get the exact same piece. That’s where I come in! They sent me some photos of the original design and I looked through my various suppliers until I found just the right flowers and greenery to create a silk flower cake topper that was what they were looking for! Rachel was kind enough to send me a few photos by Precious Pics of her beautiful wedding cake!

Rachel’s custom cake topper had a soft yellow Rose for the center with blue Hydrangea, white mini Daisies, blue Forget-Me-Nots, yellow Craspedia (or Billy Buttons) and some touches of greenery and vines. It was dainty and also a show stopper!

“Your arrangement looked absolutely beautiful, it really made the cake! Thank you again!”

Dramatic Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

, ,

A few weeks ago, I shared Kendra’s lush silk wedding flowers in burgundy and blue. I loved the drama of her silk bridal bouquet! And lucky for us she shared her wedding photos with me so that I could show all of you! Be sure and check out her extremely talented photography, based here in Twin Cities, Laura Calvo Photography.

Here is my stunning bride Kendra! And I guess we can talk about the bouquet too;) This modified cascade style bouquet was overflowing with Silver Dollar and Seeded Eucalyptus, Ruscus, Fern, blue Thistle, white Roses, and deep burgundy Dahlias. She had a very specific vision for her bouquet and we worked closely together to find the perfect flowers and greens to bring that vision to life.

The bridesmaids carried loose handtied round style bouquets with a single burgundy Dahlia, a few Roses and Thistle and the same mix of greenery. We wanted to mimic the wilder look of Kendra’s bouquet without too much draping. Each bouquet is similar but the greenery falls in different ways giving it a cohesive but varied look.

“HIGHLY recommend Love is Blooming! I had attempted to work with two different florists to recreate a bouquet from a picture I found on Pinterest, that I absolutely loved! Neither were able to create anything even remotely similar to the picture, and I thought I was going to have to give up on my vision. But then I found Erin at Love is Blooming, and she went above and beyond to create a gorgeous bouquet for myself, as well as beautiful matching bouquets for my bridal party! She provided great communication throughout her entire creation process and I couldn’t be happier with how they all turned out!”
— Kendra | Minnesota

A huge thank you to Kendra and again to her amazing photographer for allowing the use of these images. If you are interested in a dramatic bouquet to carry down the aisle or maybe you have a very specific vision for your custom silk wedding flowers, fill out the Free Bride’s Checklist today!

Custom Over-sized Centerpiece Silk Wedding Flowers for Minneapolis Golf Club

I recently had the opportunity to create an awesomely oversized custom centerpiece for the Minneapolis Golf Club made from silk wedding flowers. They were looking to have a versatile piece to grace their cocktail and hors d’oeuvres area that was neutral enough to work with any season. But neutral doesn’t mean uninteresting!

This baby is a showstopper at just about 4 feet tall and 3 feet wide. I arranged a variety of white and ivory flowers: Ranunculus, Roses, Phalaenopsis Orchids, Hydrangea, Dogwood, and Cherry Blossoms. There was also just a hint of blush pink from the Cherry Blossoms that gave it a softer touch. They wanted some interesting elements that would add some texture so I added in cream Amaranthus, some dusty Greenery and Willow Branches.

Take a look at this beautiful custom centerpiece in it’s new home.
