Dusty Pink and Dusty Blue Custom Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

, ,

Rebecca contacted me for her May wedding and wanted to incorporate some dusty pink wedding flowers to complement her dusty blue bridesmaid dresses. And just like this wedding I featured a few weeks ago, her bridesmaids got to choose a style of dress that they liked. I just love this color combination and can’t wait to share these arrangements with you!

Rebecca wanted to be sure and credit her awesome vendors, so if you are in Minnesota check out her photographer Laura Brenden Photography, makeup by Maggie Jensen (IG: maggiej_makeup), and the venue was Lost Spur Golf and Event Center.

Rebecca’s bouquet was a mix of ivory Cabbage Roses, dusty pink Peonies, dusty pink mini Roses, Lamb’s Ear and standard Eucalyptus in modified cascade style bridal bouquet. This asymmetrical design is a go-to of mine for the simple fact that it looks good from the front AND the side, so if you you forget to hold it a certain way, it’s still going to photograph great.

Look at these beautiful ladies! The bridesmaids carried full round, handtied styled bouquets with the same mix of flowers. The flower girls had little mini bouquets that were just the perfect size.

“We absolutely loved the flowers that we got for our wedding day. Erin did a great job keeping us updated and including any ideas that we had. Amazing job and gorgeous flowers!”
— Rebecca | Minnesota

Rebecca wanted simple flowers for the head table so I created a swag that laid in front of the bride and groom. It incorporated the same mix of flowers and greenery and was low enough that every one could see the happy couple. I also usually suggest having the bouquets do double duty for reception décor. The photos below show how that works out. Just have your bridesmaids drop their bouquets in a vase along the table when they enter the reception area.

I love these detail shots!

Dusty Rose, Cream and Green Silk Wedding Flowers- Part 1

, , ,

Dusty Rose might be the star of 2021 for bridal bouquets. It’s one of those colors that is soft, romantic, and a little out of the ordinary so it really stands out! Kourtney’s flowers are a great example of incorporating dusty rose into your silk wedding flowers as an accent and feature.

Kourtney’s bridal bouquet was a mix of custom dyed Roses in dusty Rose, ivory Garden Roses, ivory Cabbage Roses, white seeds, Fern and lots of Eucalyptus in a modified cascade style. Big and beautiful, this bouquet was a show-stopper!

The bridesmaid dresses were a shade of dusty rose, so Kourtney requested that their bouquets be a mix of cream and green. These simple style bouquets would allow Kourtney’s bouquet to stand out even more and for the bridesmaid dresses to be a great accent to the bridal bouquet as well. The flower girls had their own sweet mini bouquets of a single cabbage Rose and greenery.

Kourtney included a few custom honorary arrangements to honor family members who had passed away. These bouquet style arrangements are designed to be able to drop into vases that Kourtney purchased on her own. I wrapped them with a green ribbon so that if the vases were clear, the ribbon would blend in nicely with the stems.

The boutonnieres and corsages were a mix of cream flowers and a few dusty rose colored flowers mixed in. But all were simple and classic styles. These photos are to show how all the personal flowers come labeled, so that whoever is handing them out or doing the pinning knows who they are for.

*Actual* Valentine's Day Silk Wedding Flowers

, , ,

Earlier this week, I gave one example of Valentine’s Day silk wedding flowers. Today is another example with a similar color palette but a completely different style. Enjoy!

This round ball bridal bouquet was a mix of magenta Garden and Cabbage Roses and Calla Lilies, white Garden Roses and Peonies, dusty pink Mums, and few stems of Dendrobium Orchids. She wanted some pearls added in so I put together clusters of 3-5 larger scale pearls and placed them throughout the bouquet. Their accent color was silver, so that’s the color we went with on the handle of the bouquets.

She chose a mini bouquet for the flower girl and I used the same mix as the bridal bouquet, just much smaller.

This next photo shows a few of the “extras” she ordered. There were two cake clusters for her one layer wedding Cheesecake (yum!). These were designed to be different and could go on two opposite corners, one on top, one around the edge or wherever she wanted them to go. The bottom arrangement was a swag for her unity candle table. The great thing about this piece is that is can easily be picked up after the ceremony and used somewhere in the reception area; the food, gift, guestbook, or head table would all be great places for this matching custom silk wedding flower arrangement to decorate.

We kept the boutonnieres and corsages simple with white Roses and magenta accents with Lamb’s Ear for the boutonnieres and a fluffier white Ranunculus for the corsages. You’ll notice the differences are ever so slight between the boutonnieres, but they are enough to be able differentiate between the groom, groomsmen and father bouts. This bride wanted the mothers to have an option of pin or wrist corsage so she ordered one of each! I added a small spray of pearls for accent to match the bridal bouquet for a nice touch of shine.
