Red, Peach, Pink and White Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal

, , ,

I have been WAITING for this day to share Brandi and Troy’s STUNNING red, peach, pink and white silk wedding flowers. There is a touch of everything in these wedding florals including tropical, romantic, lush, and even a little art deco. AND WAIT TIL YOU SEE THEIR CAKE! Have I communicated my excitement enough yet? Thanks to Jennifer Juniper Photography for telling the story of Brandi and Troy’s wedding day so well!

Here’s our happy couple! They wanted everything to be packed with meaning for their big day, so I wanted to make sure the flowers were on par with everything else. Brandi’s modified cascade bouquet was a mix of peach cabbage roses, off white orchids, deep red ranunculus, peach ranunculus, red poppy, burgundy roses, red Freesia, burgundy Dahlia, bright pink roses, salmon ranunculus and rose pink Ranunculus.

What I enjoyed about looking through all these images is that everyone’s personality is so evident! They not only took into account their own personalities, but the personalities of their friends and family.

Their wedding took place at the Maitland Art Center and the setting was not only unique but just breathtakingly gorgeous. The pieces I created for the ceremony and reception sites needed to match the grandeur, and the style of our couple. Let’s take a look!

I created custom altar arrangements that incorporate a lot of the same flowers as the bridal bouquet, but in pieces that added some drama and color to the back drop.

Next up is the cake! Brandi sent me an inspiration photo and wanted two custom pieces to drape up and down the layers.

With such a beautiful venue, smaller centerpieces was the perfect choice! I made a few different types and Brandi had containers already picked out and ready to go. I made the centerpieces “bouquet” style, meaning they were ready to just drop in the vases!

Here’s a few more photos of our awesome couple!

Brandi shared this awesome video of Troy’s band, The Edge Effect, singing during the ceremony.

What a joy it is for me to get to be a part of the wedding of so many special couples. Are you looking for showstopping flower arrangements? Fill out the Free Bride’s Checklist today for a quote and to talk about design ideas!

Harry Potter Themed Custom Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

, ,

I’m excited to show you a uniquely themed set of flowers today that are based on the colors of the houses from Harry Potter! These custom silk wedding flowers centered around the colors of navy blue, silver, maroon, emerald and yellow. My awesome bride Alex sent me some photos from their big day, conjured up by the very talented Leah Marie Photography. You can find her on Facebook at leahmariephotography.wi

Alex’s modified cascade style bridal bouquet was a mix of maroon Peonies, navy Roses, gray Dusty Miller, gold Mimosa, and Olive greens. Her bouquet was playful and moody, just like the Harry Potter movies.

The bridesmaid carried the same mix of flowers in round handtied style bouquets. They were a great complement to their navy blue dresses.

What a great looking wedding party! The guys all had boutonnieres with a mix of colors and flowers to carry on the theme.

“Love is Blooming was phenomenal to work with. Erin had wonderful ideas, included me in the process, and was friendly and adaptable. Perfect flowers for anyone who is looking to make their event pop. Plus, I get to keep them in pristine condition forever. Highly recommend.”
— Alex | Minnesota

Thanks again to Alex for sharing her day with us!

Navy and Gold Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

, , , ,

It’s always great to be a part, as the florist, for such happy occasions. But it’s even more special when it’s family! This summer, I was given the privilege of creating a few special arrangements for the marriage of my brother-in-law to his amazing bride, Melinda. It was a joyful day of celebrating the addition of Melinda and her daughter into our family. Let’s take a look at this navy and gold themed backyard wedding.

Melinda wanted mostly greenery and succulents featured in her modified cascade style bouquet. As we worked through the design, we decided to incorporate some navy roses, lighter blue Forget-me-Nots and added some glam factor with gold mini Palm leaves. Her bouquet was full of texture and movement from the Eucalyptus, Lamb’s Ear, Willow, Fern and Succulents. Their two girls were their wedding party, so I created two mini bouquets featuring a Succulent, Forget-Me-Nots, gold mini Palm and mixed greenery.

“Timeless arrangements that you will cherish. Erin has a true talent that will make all your wedding flower dreams come true. My flowers were exactly what I envisioned.”
— Melinda | Minnesota

With such an awesome back drop, we kept the altar decorations simple with a swag of mixed greenery and some gold mini Palm accents.

What started out as the groom joking about a balloon arch, turned into a show-stopping entrance to the reception area. I also wanted to show you the amazing cake by Cakes For Your Occasions, who happens to be my Mother-in-Law/the Groom’s mom. If you are local and looking for a cake that’s beautiful to look at and tastes amazing too, check her out!

I had to end with my sweet, adorable and delightful nieces. Aren’t they so joyful?

If you are looking for ways to incorporate florals into your backyard wedding, custom silk wedding flowers could be a great option to enhance your outdoor venue. Contact me today to talk about how I can make that happen for you!

Alaskan Destination Wedding-Reveal and Review

, , ,

Bohemian, or boho, style bouquets have been all the rage the last year or two. This bridal bouquet is a great example of this style. Take a look at these amazing photos by Dallin and Cienna of bride Roxanna and her crew. Roxanna is from my area but drove out to Alaska for her destination wedding. How cool is that?!

Her modified cascade style silk bridal bouquet was a muted mix of beige, peach, and ivory Roses, Peonies, and Delphinium. We didn’t want anything too traditional look so we added lots of natural textures provided by the Artichoke, Amaranthus, Wheat, Fern and Sword Eucalyptus. To complete the look, I tied lots of ribbon tails in different shades of champagne and ivory. Roxanna was awesome at communicating her style with me and I think we did a great job working together to create a bouquet that matched her dress and her surroundings.

“Working with Erin was a heaven sent for me! By that I mean I had a very specific idea in my vision for my bouquet. Although it was very hard for me to explain. We went through quite a few trials until we absolutely nailed it! She was so unbelievably patient, and kind throughout our process. I am so grateful to have worked with her, and I highly recommend!”
— Roxanna | Minnesota

The bridesmaids carried simple bouquets of white Peonies and Olive greenery. I love the way they accentuated the variety of their dress colors.

“I got married in June and knew I didn’t want real flowers, so as I was doing a little research, I stumbled upon Erin and her website.

I quickly knew this is exactly who I wanted to work with! She took everything I wanted and made it more than I could have ever imagined.

I will forever recommend Erin and her flowers to everyone who is planning a wedding!”
