Red, White, and Green Bridal Bouquet Recreation - Reveal and Review

, ,

Andy reached out to me about recreating his wife’s bouquet for their upcoming 20th anniversary! When you think back on all the styles in the last 20 years, you can see how this bouquet stands the test of time. Her red, white, and green bridal bouquet was a classic mix of colors, flowers, and greenery that was a good fit for a custom bridal bouquet recreation in silk flowers. Let’s take a look!

The original bouquet was a mix of white and red Garden Roses, Seeded Eucalyptus and small filler greenery. Andy thought it was originally constructed in a bouquet holder, so I kept the stems thin and wrapped them fully in white ribbon to mimic the look.

Lavender Bouquet Recreation with Accents - Reveal and Review

, ,

Today, I get to share with you a lovely lavender bridal bouquet recreation in silk flowers with some unique accents. Rich reached out to me and sent me a few photos, taken by a family friend, from their wedding day. His wife’s bouquet was a mix of white and lavender Roses, ribbon accents and small silver/pearl bulbs mixed in. Let’s take a look at the recreation!

While I always do my very best to match as closely as possible, sometimes there are slight changes that have to be made. As in this case, I wasn’t able to find ribbon in the same striped look in the right color. I did find a color match that was acceptable to Rich and he felt it was a good representation of the look of the bouquet overall.

“Erin did an awesome job creating a replication of my wife’s bouquet! My wife loves it!

Black, Red and Burgundy Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

, , ,

Michelle’s black, red and burgundy silk wedding flowers were show stoppers. This unique color combination is not one I had worked before and I was super excited because she also wanted some elements that would definitely turn up the glam on her arrangements. These amazing images are by Parker’s Images. Check them out on their website or Facebook! Let’s get a closer look at Michelle’s bouquet!

Michelle’s teardrop cascading silk bridal bouquet was a mix of red and black Garden Roses, dark burgundy Calla Lilies, black Skimmia Berries and a touch of greenery. To crank up the style we added in skinny black feathers and a large black rhinestone broach.

The bridesmaids carried round handtied bouquets with the same mix of flowers and an asymmetrical accent of the skinny black feathers.

Here’s all the handsome men with their boutonnieres. The groom’s boutonniere was a red Spray Rose, Skimmia and feathers with a touch of greenery. We simplified the groomsmen to be just the dark burgundy Calla Lily and some feathers. All bouquets and boutonnieres were finished off with a wine red satin ribbon.

“Erin did a fabulous job on our wedding flowers. She was very communitive throughout the whole process and gave progress photos while she worked on them. If I had any changes or requests, she did everything to accommodate them. They look amazing and were very durable. Guests wanted to take my flowers home but we loved them so much we couldn’t part with them. They look very realistic and now we have keepsakes forever. I would 100% recommend Love is Blooming and Erin. She is just the sweetest to work with.”
— Michelle | Illinois

Michelle wanted to incorporate matching flowers into her centerpieces. She already had lanterns, so I designed these small clusters of a red and a black Garden Rose with a little bit of greenery to tie on with matching ribbon.

She wanted a little something more for the head table, so I suggested using a garland with black and red roses dispersed along the length of the garland. It was a great way to add floral arrangements without blocking anyone’s view of the happy couple and the bridal party.

Thanks again to Michelle for sharing her beautiful wedding day photos with us. Are you looking to incorporate this color scheme into your wedding florals? Silk wedding flowers might be the answer. Fill out the Free Bride’s Checklist today for a quote and to send me your ideas!

Burgundy and Gold Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

, ,

Since were past spring wedding orders, I thought I’d set the mood and get you thinking ahead to fall! Elsie’s burgundy and gold silk wedding flowers are such a classic combination. You can’t go wrong with Roses and Sunflowers and when the colors are just so perfectly matched for fall-it’s always going to look amazing! Elsie shared her photos with me, by photographer Photos by Red and I get to share them with you today!

Her round ball style bridal bouquet was a mix of burgundy Roses, gold Sunflowers, rhinestones in the Roses and a few clear bead sprays. We also added burlap wrap on the stems, a burlap ruffle around the bottom of the bouquet and a touch of lace and ribbon. Accents like that can set things apart in simple, but elegant ways. The bridesmaids carried round ball style bouquets with the same flowers and stem wrap, but without the rhinestone accents. Scroll to the bottom to see a few detail shots of Elsie’s bouquet.

“Erin is absolutely AMAZING!!! I was kinda in a bind because I didn’t want to spend so much on real flowers and I didn’t want to worry about having to make them myself. So one day I was on Google and just happened to come across Love is Blooming and I’m sooooo glad I did! Will definitely recommend to everyone I know who needs flowers!!! Not to mention her prices are so reasonable!!!”
— Elsie | Kansas

We kept all the boutonnieres and corsages on theme with burgundy Roses and mini Sunflowers with twine wrapped on the stem. This is a good option to match the texture, but not the bulk, of burlap.

Baby's Breath and Lamb's Ear Bridal Bouquet Recreation

Cierra wanted her simple yet elegant bridal bouquet recreated and when she asked me I was happy to say, yes! Her bouquet was a unique and classy design; a combination of Baby’s Breath and Lamb’s Ear. I recreated her bouquet in silk flowers with a simple cream bow and satin ribbon on the stems.

“I recently got married this past July and really wanted to preserve my wedding flowers, but when I found out how expensive that was I decided to go a different route and get my bouquet recreated. I eventually found Love Is Blooming online and emailed Erin right away. Erin was lovely to work with and responded quickly. After a few emails and pictures my bouquet turned out beautifully, so good my family thought it was the real thing!”

Sunflower Modified Cascade Silk Wedding Flowers- Part 1

, , ,

Ashley’s sunflower themed silk wedding flowers were a fun challenge for me. I’ve done lots of different sunflower themed bouquets (just head over to my blog and do a quick search for more examples), but Ashley wanted a bouquet that had a few more colors mixed in, lots of greenery and to turn a cascade bouquet on its head, quite literally. As you can see below, instead of the traditional vertical tear drop of a cascade, we spread out the bouquet side to side for a very unique take on a cascade bouquet. This is exactly the type of bouquet that fits into my category of “modified cascade.” You can clearly see that it’s not a round bouquet, and not a true cascade. It has a more organic shape with draping elements. It is a showstopper!

The bridal bouquet was a mix of Sunflowers, blueberries, burgundy Mums, white Cosmos, white accent flowers, Seeded Ecualyptus, Silver Dollar Eucalyptus and Fern. We tied it off with Antique White satin ribbon and left some of the stems exposed for a more modern look.

The bridesmaid bouquets needed to be a matching style without as much volume. We pared back the amount of flowers and added in some navy Delphinium to deepen the color scheme to match their moody burgundy dresses. I kept the composition loose and a little wild to match the look of the bridal bouquet.

Ashley had requested that I make all of the boutonnieres and corsages different from each other, incorporating a variety of greenery and accent flowers in blue, white and burgundy. This was so fun for me, because each one is unique, but stays consistent with the look and feel of her other flowers.

Do you like the idea of unique boutonnieres and corsages? Or maybe you want a cascade that’s, well, not quite a cascade? Silk flowers allow you to have that kind of input! There’s no flipping through catalogs to pick out the same thing 1,000 other brides already picked out.

Check back in a few days to see the reveal of Ashley’s wedding day and hear what she had to say about working with me on her custom silk wedding flowers.

Bridal Bouquet Recreation in Silk Wedding Flowers

, ,

Planning your wedding can occupy months or maybe even a year or more of your time, energy and money. And sometimes there are parts of it that you love so much that it would be nice to keep reliving and remembering. A recreation in silk flowers is just the thing to help you cherish one thing you probably spent a lot of time picking out and then carrying around—your bridal bouquet!

Kayla’s bouquet was so pretty-blue Hydrangea, ivory Roses and peachy-pink Lisianthus with buds and Silver Dollar Eucalyptus. Take a look at this comparison photo!

Dusty Blue and Ivory Silk Bridal Bouquet and Maid of Honor Bouquet

, ,

Small weddings are all the rage right now. Whether that’s a result of Covid-19 or couples reevaluating what they want their dream wedding to be like, I’m doing more and more custom silk bridal bouquets for weddings with just one or two bridesmaids, or none at all! And since things are changing left and right for what can be celebrated and when, there has never been a better time to order flowers that DON’T DIE! I’ve already been able to help out several couples who’s wedding plans had to change and the best part is that they still get beautiful flowers, whenever their wedding ends up happening.

Kayla emailed me looking for her bouquet and a matching one for her Maid of Honor. She had a few inspiration photos and with a little input from me we came up with this bright and light design.

The bridal bouquet consisted of blue Hydrangea, ivory Roses and Calla Lilies, and greens. Kayla wanted to include some bling, so I added individual rhinestones into the bouquet and tied it off with silver ribbon.

“I ordered my bridal and maid of honor bouquet after dealing with so many florists. I decided to go with Love is Blooming and holy cow they came out amazing! Erin did an amazing job, she kept me informed, and gave me ideas on what would look good and what wouldn’t. I am so beyond happy with how they turned out.”
— Kayla | Minnesota

The matching Maid of Honor bouquet was a smaller version of Kayla’s bridal bouquet, down to the rhinestones and ribbon.

Whimsical Silk Wedding Flowers

, ,

One of my new favorite finds over on Instagram is following people that make dollhouses (I’ve always loved miniature things, and I’m proud of it). What’s so amazing about them is that in some of the photos you can’t tell it’s a dollhouse! Keep that in mind when I show you this silk bridal bouquet because sometimes photos don’t give an accurate picture of the size of something. In this case, this baby is actually much bigger than the photo does it justice. Stretching almost 2.5 feet wide, this whimsical silk bridal bouquet was absolutely breathtaking. Lexi worked closely with me to nail down the specific colors she wanted in the bouquet. I worked with her requests and a few style photos she sent to come up with this design. Behold!

Here’s the rundown of what went into this showstopper:

-Ranunculus in white and coral
-Roses in mauve
-Peonies in hot pink and yellow
-Dogwood in dusty blue
-Freesia in white and red
-Skimmia berries in dark blue
-Fall berries in burnt orange
-Fern and ficus greenery

The bridesmaid bouquets were much more typical sized and had less of a variety of the flowers from the bridal bouquet. These summer bouquets were magical and I can only imagine how amazing they would look for spring, summer or even fall!

Lexi wanted to include her flower girls in the grand scheme of her floral designs so I came up with these sweet little floral crowns that matched the bridal bouquet and added some brightness to their aisle walk. Thanks to my daughter for being a willing model;)

If you’ve been looking for a little whimsy in your wedding flowers, or perhaps a less common shape like Lexi’s bouquet, silk flowers are where it’s at. If we don’t get the shape quite right, we can make adjustments so there are no surprises on your wedding day. Well at least no floral surprises. Fill out the Free Bride’s Checklist for a quote!

Lantern Centerpiece Wedding Idea with Silk Flowers

Jean contacted me to help her figure out an arrangement design for some lanterns for her daughter’s centerpieces. She found the perfect red Ranunculus and dusty/sage greenery and I came up with this simple but classy design made with silk wedding flowers.

Bows can look outdated and heavy. But by keeping it a simpler, two-loop bow with antique white satin ribbon, it really dressed up the arrangement and provided a nice contrast to the black metal lanterns.

Anniversary around the holidays: The Gift of Bouquet Recreation

,

I've got a December birthday, thankfully for me it's early enough in the month that I get birthday presents separate from my Christmas presents. My daughter isn't quite as lucky. Her December 19th birthday means extended family celebrations are a mish-mash of holiday and birthday gift giving. At 6, she doesn't mind so much yet. But as her mom, I still have to plan ahead to make some distinction between her birthday and Christmas. If you have an anniversary around a major holiday, you too might be feeling the squeeze of gift giving. How do you make your anniversary gift separate but meaningful?

Jared must have been thinking the same thing because when he contacted me before Christmas, for his January anniversary, he was really planning ahead! He sent me some wedding pictures, we talked through the flowers and I got to work.

As I looked through the photos and talked with Jared about the bouquet itself, more questions came up. Jared was awesome about giving quick feedback and even asked his wife's Grandma what she remembered. He found me a more close up photo which helped even more and I was able to determine that in between the cream roses were purple Delphinium and individual blue silk flowers.

The bouquet itself also had some nice details we wanted to be sure to include. The sprays of pearls were just like the original bouquet. There was also a criss-cross sheer ribbon detail on the handle of the bouquet, over the top of the white satin ribbon. Because of the stems I was working with, I wasn't able to leave as much ribbon showing on the bottom of the handle. Sometimes I have to work with the constraints of the products. But I always work to maintain the overall look of the original floral design. Jared noticed the ribbon detail wasn't quite exact but understood and ultimately approved of the final product.

Here's the original for comparison:

“
The bouquet turned out beautiful, my wife thought they were so accurate that she asked if I had the original florist make them. Very impressive work for just a few details and pictures. Also the whole process was really quick and I felt involved throughout the whole process from design to finish. Would recommend highly.”

Bling Is The Thing: Part 2 | Designer Silk Wedding Flowers

Heather had done quite a bit of research in deciding what she wanted her wedding flowers to look like.  But unlike most brides, she also put a lot of thought into the boutonnieres and corsages.  She sent me pictures of some amazing details she wanted to incorporate and then she put me up to the task of tailoring them to her flowers, colors and needs.

The groom's boutonniere: Lavender Sweet Pea, white Freesia, feathers, greens, green decorative wire:

The mom's and grandma's wristlet corsages on pearl beaded bracelets: Hydrangea, Freesia, ribbon, rhinestones:

Heather did a great job of choosing designs that were thoughtful, beautiful, and carried the theme throughout the arrangements.  Her love of bling was used tastefully and uniquely--two very important things in wedding flowers.  Thanks Heather for trusting me to bring your vision to life and I wish you all the best!

Bridal Arm Silk Wedding Bouquet with Yellow Calla Lillies: Choosing a Unique Design

There is a certain thrill of having a deadline and I especially work well under pressure.  But how about when that deadline is a mere 2 weeks away and you are starting from scratch.  As they say in Cool Runnings,"No problem, mahn!"

Serina called me on a Thursday evening and wanted to get together to talk about flowers.  I did my usual, "How many bridesmaids?  What are your colors? Yadda, yadda, yadda."  I was already starting to get a few ideas when I threw out the all important, "And what's your wedding date?"  Good thing she couldn't see my jaw hit my desktop when she told me it was July 14th.  As in, 16 days away.

Our appointment was really a great way to nail down exact details of what she wanted.  Her 7 bridesmaids will carry yellow and white callas with sheer yellow ribbon.  And the groomsmen boutonnieres will be a yellow calla with yellow ribbon.  Very classy and chic.

When we got to the design of her bouquet, Serina emphasized that she was looking for something unique.  At this point she had been leaning towards a cascade bouquet so I started to introduce the idea of a modified cascade bouquet.  I like to reinvent the wheel, remember? 

What we came up with is a hybrid bouquet that has the fluid draping elements of the cascade bouquet combined with the long stemmed look of the arm bouquet.  And of course we really upped the ante by doing a rhinestone wrap along the entire length of the handle.

The groom's boutonniere was a good match with its own rhinestone band.

When I finished these beautifies I felt a little bit like hitting that little clock thingy at a chess match and yelling, "Checkmate!"  There's something fun about a challenge and this certainly was one.  Thanks Serina for keeping me on my toes!

Peonies in Wedding Boutonnieres & Corsages

Briana and I worked together to find simply designed boutonnieres and corsages that were cohesive with the rest of her silk wedding flowers. Ranunculus were the perfect choice! The fullness of the flower, the round shape, and the fluffy appearance made them look as if they might be mini Peonies.

Groom's Boutonniere:

Groomsmen Boutonniere:

Father's Boutonniere:

While we figured the men in the bridal party might not appreciate pink in their boutonnieres, we thought the moms would. I was able to use one of the Peony buds along with an open Ranunculus and a bud to give their corsages a punch of color and a touch of femininity.

Mother's Corsage:

And now the best part of this whole series...coming up next, the professional pictures of Briana's wedding flowers. Wait til you see these gorgeous wedding arrangements against a wintry backdrop--amazing!

Winter Wedding Designer Bouquets

Minnesota bride Julie had given me enough details before our consultation to have a head start on choosing her designer silk wedding bouquet options. And when it came down to it, she loved them all! So much so that we incorporated all the options into her arrangements. She wanted some varying shades of purple, some crisp white, a hint of greenery, and of course a little bling.

(I think that was the theme for this winter, Bling!)
Bridal Bouquet: Roses, Hydrangea, Calla Lilies, Pom Pom Mums, Stephanotis, Bling, Purple Satin Ribbon

Bridesmaid Bouquet: Roses, Hydrangea, Calla Lilies, Pom Pom Mums, Stephanotis, Bling, Silver Satin Ribbon

Toss Bouquet: Hydrangea, Pom Pom Mums, Callas


Getting married in the winter doesn't mean your theme needs to be red and green or blue and white, there are tons of color combinations to highlight the season. Add purple and white to that list because jewel tones are a huge hit for winter and fall weddings.

Thanks again to Julie for choosing me to put a new spin on her winter wedding!

Real Wedding: James & Clarissa

Local couple and our friends James and Clarissa contacted me about doing the flowers for their July 22nd ceremony and of course I said yes! Clarissa came ready with color swatches, a hand drawn sketch of her ideas for the ceremony site and pictures showing what she liked for the bouquets. Having all that in hand made my job so easy and the expectations so clear. In just a matter of a few weeks we had flowers chosen, designs picked out, and we were ready to roll.

Her color palette of turquoise, spring green, yellow, and white was such a vibrant and fun combination for a summer wedding. The flowers she wanted incorporated were daisies, roses, mums, hydrangea, and some greenery. Her two bridesmaids carried smaller versions of her bouquet and the guys wore white roses with smaller accent flowers that were also found in the bouquets. Check out what we came up with together:

James and Clarissa had me create aisle arrangements hung from matching turquoise ribbon, and altar arrangement using the same flowers and colors, and centerpieces for their intimate reception at

The Northland Inn

.

It was an honor to attend such a beautiful occasion with my hubs and also so fun to see the flowers outside "in the wild." And now I have these stunning photos from

Thanks to James and Clarissa for included me in your special day in such a big way! Blessings in your new adventures together!

Nautical Inspiration: Navy and White Wedding

I love when I'm challenged with incorporating a theme, a unique color scheme, or even interesting new materials into wedding flowers. So when local bride Cindy contacted me and kind of asked for all three, I was pretty excited!

 Her wedding is this weekend and is taking place in Door County, Wisconsin, a beautifully scenic area along the coast of Lake Michigan. She wanted that to be reflected in her color scheme and her wedding flowers.
Cindy wasn't picky about what types of flowers but with a color scheme that includes navy, the choices can be somewhat limited. I happened to have some deliciously dark blue Cornflowers on hand that I thought would be a great option as well as some beautifully summery daisies that brought in the white. Because both types of flowers have similar shapes and textures they were a great match--and more importantly, Cindy loved them! Using navy and white striped ribbon that Cindy mailed me with her contract, the finishing touches were really striking.



In one of our phone conversations, Cindy mentioned her desire to make things nautically themed because of her unique wedding location. She e-mailed me a few pictures and asked if I could work with the ideas using her choice of flowers. I was blown away by these unique takes on boutonnieres and corsages and immediately agreed to give it a go. I've never been a boy scout, so I had to learn some knot tying and had to track down just the right type of rope.
The boutonnieres: Mini daisy, leaves, knotted rope


The corsage: Mini daisy, cornflower, navy and white striped ribbon
Cindy and I had the chance to meet face to face when she picked up the flowers on Sunday and we just oohed and ahhed over what we came up with together. And that's what I love about this process--collaborating with brides, coming up with new and inspiring designs, and being a part of a project that makes people so happy and excited. Thanks Cindy for this fun opportunity and I wish you much happiness in your new marriage!

Real Wedding: Bekah (Part 2)

Bekah liked the idea of her personal flowers matching the bouquets. That's a pretty common way of signifying who's who in the bridal party. In this case, we went with a slight variation. The flowers we used for the bridesmaid bouquets were on the larger size, and we weren't sure that it was the best choice for the groomsmen bouts. Instead we used a different type of Calla Lily, but used the same ribbon that we wrapped the bouquets with.

For the groom's boutonniere we used the same Rose that appeared in Bekah's bridal bouquet. We matched the same color ribbon as one additional way of having her groom stand out.
Groom's Bout



Groomsmen Bout


For the corsages we also used the bright pink ribbon and we added Sweet Pea in bright pink for the Mother's corsages. Bekah wasn't picky about the type of accent flower, but it was important that the color matched the ribbon swatch she sent me.

Thanks Bekah for the opportunity to create these beautiful flowers. I wish you all the best in your new marriage!
