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.”

Thanks again to Alex for sharing her day with us!

*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.

Maid of Honor Silk Wedding Bouquet Addition

Remember Winett’s gorgeous dark purple bouquets? She emailed me a few weeks after she received her flowers and asked if we could somehow work another bouquet into the mix. We decided to do a different style for this one and make it into her maid of honor bouquet in silk wedding flowers and here’s what we came up with:

We used the same Cymbidium Orchids in the plum purple and the ivory. Then I added more of the Picasso Calla Lilies and the lavender Sweet Pea and tied it off with the same silver ribbon that we used on her other bouquets. If you are looking to add another bridesmaid to your squad, silk flowers offer a great way to do that in a cohesive way, last minute or weeks ahead of time. Contact me if you are still working out your details and want to see what we can come up with for your bouquets.
