Revisiting These Jewel Toned Summer Silk Wedding Flowers

, , ,

I love that even though I created today’s featured wedding flowers 3 years ago, the jewel tone color palette is still as popular as ever! You can mix and match the deep, rich colors and it can work for any season!

I love, love, loved doing these wedding flowers! Bride Catherine gave me her color palette and her permission to get creative with her bouquets, and her arrangements turned out stunning. These jewel toned summer silk wedding flowers were a mix of moody and bright colors with texture and greens for a unique look that worked for her summer wedding.

A huge thanks to these amazing images from their photographer Precious Pics!

Catherine’s handtied style round bridal bouquet was a mix of plum Tea Roses, navy Delphinium, yellow Ranunculus, orange Hydrangea, plum Poppies, orange Ranunculus, burgundy Roses, dusty pink Peonies, Blueberries and mixed greenery.

The bridesmaids carried clutch size bouquets with just a few of the flowers from the bridal bouquet, but in the same loose handtied style. All the bouquets were finished off with burlap wrap on the stems.

“I can’t say enough positive things about Love is Blooming. I had always loved the idea of a bold, jewel tone colored bouquet. However the quotes from local florists were wayyy out of our budget. I had almost given up when I came across Love is is Blooming. Erin was very responsive and did such good job listening to what I wanted while also adding in her own experience. The end result was exactly what I had been looking for at a fraction of the cost of a florist. She was even able to create a matching dog collar! I loved that I was able to get picture updates and make any adjustments before getting them and it was one less thing to have to worry about on the big day! Everyone, both guests and venue staff, at the wedding were shocked when they realized they were fake flowers as no one could tell until they were up close. Plus, my bridesmaids were so happy to be able to keep their flowers after the wedding. I am so incredibly grateful and highly recommend Love is Blooming to anyone looking for wedding flowers.”

The groom’s boutonniere was a burgundy Rose, yellow Ranunculus, a bit of Hydrangea, Blueberries and matching greenery with a twine wrap on the stems.

Catherine had a lot of loved ones surrounding her on her big day and they all had a custom silk flower wedding arrangement. Even her precious pup got a custom silk flower dog collar to wear during the celebration.

Are jewel tones your jam? Love the moodier colors but getting married in the spring or summer? Let’s talk!

Friday the 13th Silk Wedding Flowers - Part 1

, , ,

Amanda reached out to me for custom silk wedding flowers for their Friday the 13th wedding. Her colors were forest green, black and ivory and in her words, they were, “going for a spooky/gothic vibe.” I’m actually going to be sharing in two parts because Amanda and her husband had a small ceremony here in Minneapolis and then a private ceremony out in the Black Hills. So today, let’s take a look at some moody, mysterious and gothic flowers, photographed by the very talented Winsome Photography.

Amanda sent me some great inspiration photos that helped me suggest a great mix of flowers and greenery for her bouquet. We settled on a round handtied style bouquet with a mix of sand Roses, black Dahlia, black Skimmia, ivory Gardenia, 3 types of Eucalyptus and a single peach Rose that Amanda had requested as a special accent. She also really wanted to some ivory pearls mixed in and I found some lovely clusters that added texture and a bit of shine to the bouquet.

To bring in the gothic theme even more, our creative couple requested the boutonniere include a raven skull. Thankfully, they found that because I wouldn’t even know where to look! But it was the perfect size to add a touch of flowers and greenery to and really seal the deal on the gothic vibe.

While the ceremony had to be moved indoors due to rain, they were able to get some pretty great city-scape photos of St. Paul.

I love that they just went with the flow of the day and made it work! Amanda even made her own ceremony arrangement knowing they would have to move things indoors. And you can see in these photos that they were really focusing on what was important, each other!

Not to be left out from the big day, their two sweet puppies got to be part of the action! I created a custom floral dog collar that incorporated their colors and greenery. Since she was still growing, I was able to make it adjustable so account for all that fluff!

This was such a fun wedding to create flowers for. Check back later this week to see part two with some stunning destination wedding photos from their private ceremony in the Black Hills of South Dakota!
