Summer Wedding Flower Inspiration

While I absolutely love to share photos from clients’ wedding day, sometimes I don’t get that opportunity. But it would be such a waste to not share those pretty bouquet with you on my blog! So today, I decided that since we are heading towards summer, I would share some photos of finished arrangements that might inspire you for your summer wedding.

This bouquet is for an upcoming June wedding, but I just couldn’t wait to share it with you, so this is her big debut! This bouquet is packed full of color and texture and features: Roses, Poppies, Orchids, Delphinium, Astilbe and a whole bunch of greenery. I love the pop of yellow!

Speaking of yellow, you can’t go wrong with this color combination-yellow and blue! This combination of yellow Roses, blue Hydrangea, Daisies and white Baby’s Breath is a classic summer look!

If you have a tropical wedding, this one is for you! This awesome bouquet is a mix of pink Anthurium, Ginger and Roses with a collar of Monstera, Palm and Banana leaves. Makes me want to stroll down a beach!

I love that the wildflower look is growing in popularity. This vibrant bouquet mixes a ton of color and texture and keeps your eye moving all over the bouquet. Every time you look at it, you see something new!

Pink never gets old! Especially when you do a mixture of blush, coral, watermelon and white together. It elevates the look from a simple pink bouquet to a handful of bright and happy!

The last bouquet I wanted to show you is a great bouquet for either summer or fall. It combines some lighter colors along with more saturated tones to be a good mix for either season. It allows the sunflowers to look bright and summery as well as rich and moody.

If you are planning your later summer 2026 wedding or summer 2027 wedding, I hope this inspired you at creative ways to incorporate the flowers and colors that you love into a custom silk bridal bouquet for your big day!

Gold, White and Peacock Feathers Bouquet Recreation - Reveal

Kirk reached out to me for a custom bridal bouquet recreation in silk flowers for his wife’s unique winter bridal bouquet. Whenever a bouquet has accents, it can present a challenge in recreating it, but I was up for the challenge. Let’s take a look at a side-by-side of the recreation with his wife’s original bouquet!

This bouquet is what is called presentation style or can also be considered a clutch bouquet because it features just 5 flowers. But don’t let the small amount of flowers fool you into thinking it didn’t have impact. Her bouquet featured large, white Calla Lilies and was framed by Peacock feathers and glittery gold Palm Leaves. Finish it off with some shimmery gold ribbon and it was an awesome bouquet!

When you look at their bouquets up against their satiny dresses, the shimmer and gold in the bouquets works beautifully with the colors and the shine!

Tropical Silk Bridal Bouquet Recreation & Review

Rounding out the end of Recreation Week is this stunner of a bouquet from a Mexico destination wedding. One of the great things about going somewhere is you get the benefit of all the special things of that location. In this case, this luscious tropical bouquet. What you give up is not being able to bring back your flowers to preserve. Kelsey’s bouquet had to be left behind, so she contacted me just a few days after getting home from her wedding to ask about having her bouquet recreated in silk wedding flowers. Take a look at the end product!

Silk Wedding Flowers for a Destination Wedding

It’s been hot here in Minneapolis, so a tropical destination wedding seemed like a fitting blog post for this week! I don’t often get to do tropical themed wedding flowers, but this year I’ve done several. While most brides aren’t looking for over-the-top tropical themes, they do gravitate towards the bright colors and rich greenery that is often the backdrop for their wedding days. This is a great example of a hybrid silk bridal bouquet that incorporates some classic wedding flowers and colors along with brighter pops of color and that tropical foliage that is instantly recognizable and decidedly NOT Minnesotan greenery.

This bridal bouquet was a mix of pinks and whites, per the bride’s request. I used a variety of Peonies and Ranunculus, a few mauve Roses and some smaller seeds and Cosmos. The Palm branches and mini Monstera added some texture and shape to the bouquet so that it would look good in any environment, but especially a beach ceremony.

The bridesmaid bouquet was sized down and more round shaped than the bridal which was more of a modified cascade style. Both were wrapped in satin ribbon in the color Rosewater.

When Peonies are a main flower in the bouquets, I like to use Ranunculus for the boutonnieres and corsages. They have a similar shape and look as Peonies, but a much more appropriate size for being on a lapel or wrist.

The boutonnieres were custom matched to what the groom, groomsman, and ring bearers would be wearing. And since the ringbearers were her little boys, we had them coordinate with the groom’s boutonniere too. I added just a touch of greenery in the boutonnieres to that it all matched, in a sort of non-matchy way. The pin on style corsages were a mix of white and pink Peonies and greenery with a small spray of rhinestones for a little shine.

Planning a destination wedding but not sure what to do about flowers? Talk to me about your options for having that figured out before the plane lands…or even before you book your tickets for that matter!
