Butterfly Pavilion Wedding Flowers - Reveal

Audrey reached out to me about her spring wedding that was taking place inside a butterfly house! There were a few things to work around for her wedding flowers. The Butterfly pavilion had some specific guidelines to protect the butterflies including: nothing living or once living could be brought inside. She had already picked out Sola wood centerpieces for her reception, but wanted something special and complementary for her bouquet, and a few boutonnieres and corsages. Let’s take a look at these photos by Authentic Moments Photography by Andrew Miner.

Audrey’s bouquet was a loose, round handtied style bouquet with a mix of raspberry and plum Poppies, blush Peonies and Roses, raspberry Tea Roses, Lavender, purple Hydrangea, Mums and Dahlia, Eucalyptus and Ruscus. I love when I get to do something less common for ribbon and Audrey was game for incorporating two colors-sheer white and satin Rosewater. They complemented her dress beautifully and set her bouquet apart even more!

Audrey was very thoughtful about the colors that went into each arrangement. She did a great job picking out which flowers went in each boutonniere and corsage, based on what was in her bouquet. She made my job a piece of cake! This photo shows the groom’s bout and one of the mom’s wrist corsages. They all match!

I love this shot-such joy!

Shades of Pink: Raspberry, Dusty Rose and Blush Silk Wedding Flowers

Sarah sent over several inspiration photos with her quote request. Most of them had all white/cream flowers with a hint of blush that would have been beautiful against her bridesmaids dusty blue gowns. But she couldn’t quite decide on a style until just the right inspiration photo came along. Instead of just a hint of blush we amped up the pink factor and included some raspberry, dusty rose, blush, and ivory with a variety of Eucalyptus in more of the dusty green and blue tones. Take a look at these custom silk wedding flowers!

The bouquets were all a round handtied style with the bridesmaid bouquets made as smaller versions of the bridal bouquet. They all included mini raspberry Cabbage Roses, dusty pink Curled Roses, ivory Garden Roses, blush Tea Roses, blush seeds, Seeded Eucalyptus, and Willow.

The boutonnieres incorporated her main colors and greenery and the pin on corsages were mainly ivory with hints of blush seeds.

If you have some inspiration photos but you haven’t quite landed on an exact design, send them my way and let’s talk about how to combine your favorite looks for a truly custom set of silk wedding flowers.

Blush, Burgundy, Berry, Beautiful Silk Wedding Flowers

Becky’s blush, burgundy, berry and beautiful silk wedding flowers were not just a dream alliteration, they were dreamy custom silk flowers and bridal bouquets!

Her modified cascade bridal bouquet was a combination of blush and cream Cabbage Roses, raspberry Calla Lilies, burgundy Calla Lilies, white Dahlia, white Roses, burgundy Seeds, Lamb’s Ear, and Seeded Eucalyptus.

The bridesmaid bouquets were a similar mix of flowers, but in a handtied style and without the raspberry Callas. Those we kept for just the bridal bouquet.

Becky also wanted a flower crown for her flower girl. I used a mix of all her colors in smaller scale accent flowers based on a crown of white Baby’s Breath.

Bright Colors in Fall Silk Wedding Flowers

A lot of times, when we think of fall, colors like brown, gold, rust, olive, burgundy come to mind. How do I put this delicately? They are the colors of plant life ceasing to actively grow (ahem, dead stuff). And while those colors look amazing together, there is no rule saying your fall wedding can’t be bright and lively. Take these fall silk wedding flowers and bridal bouquet for example:

We’ve got all the classic fall colors but in brighter tones making for cheerier wedding flowers. If you are the type of bride who bucks the trend or doesn’t stick with the norms, contact me today to find out how your wedding flowers can reflect your unique personality.

Burgundy Cascade Silk Wedding Flower Review

After posting Janelle’s amazing raspberry and blush silk wedding flowers, the requests have poured in for quotes for similar style bouquets and color combinations. I love hearing from all of you who are looking for unique takes on burgundy flowers, modified cascade bouquets and how to add interesting texture to your custom silk wedding flowers.

For those of you checking me out for the first time, I wanted to share the photos Janelle sent me from her wedding day. She looks stunning, as do her bridesmaids! And I gotta say, her flowers looked great in front of the camera too. So if you’ve been wondering how silk wedding flowers compare to fresh, here’s a great look at how versatile and realistic they actually are.

These beautiful images were taken by Empiria Studios right here in Minneapolis. Check them out if you are looking for a great local photographer.

These ladies were brave for these photos, but these shots were worth some shivers!

Janelle came to me during the design process with an idea for her centerpieces. She was planning to do chargers with candles and wanted some matching greens and roses for each table. I used some of the same seeded Eucalyptus branches from the bouquets and bundled them up with some of the roses so that whoever her decorator was could just grab a bundle and arrange each table. This was a great, budget-friendly option that also fit well with Janelle’s overall style and theme.

Love is Blooming was fantastic to work with!! My flowers were so beautiful and Erin was so great to work with. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for beautiful flowers on their big day!

Raspberry and Blush Silk Wedding Flowers

Janelle’s dreamy color scheme was so fun to work with! With a wine/raspberry as her main color and blush and rosegold accents, I felt like I had endless possibilities of what to include in her silk wedding flower bouquets.

What we settled on was Dahlia, Roses, Mums, and Peonies with some burgundy Lamb’s Ear and Seeded Eucalyptus. The bridal bouquet also included raspberry Amaranthus for a dramatic edge.

The bridesmaid bouquets were a perfect complement to the bridal bouquet.

Here’s a quick peak at some of the boutonnieres and corsages to coordinate with the bouquets.

I can’t help it, here’s one more of the bridal and bridesmaid bouquet. I’m kind of in love with this modified cascade, it’s modern and eye catching without being too over the top.

Looking for a modern twist on a classic style, silk flowers offer you the ability to see it before your big day. So no surprises when it’s too late to change anything! We can tweak it until it‘s just right without risking the beauty of the flowers.
