Recreating a Bouquet You Love For Your Wedding - Reveal & Review

I’ve had a number of brides find a blog post of mine and fall in love with the look of a bouquet I’ve made for another bride. Today’s bride, Tommy, loved this modified cascade bridal bouquet that I made a few years ago and wanted the same bouquet for herself! I was able to design a few more custom arrangements to match and we had custom silk wedding flowers for her big day! Let’s take a look at a few of the photos Tommy sent me from her photographer, Ron Park Photography.

Tommy’s modified cascade silk bridal bouquet was a mix of Sunflowers, dusty blue Wisteria, white Baby’s Breath, Silver Dollar Eucalyptus, Succulents and Peacock Feathers. Her daughter carried a small, simplified bouquet of Sunflowers, Baby’s Breath, one Succulent and some Eucalyptus. I really liked how they complemented each other without being matchy-matchy.

The groom’s boutonniere included a Succulent, mini Sunflowers, Baby’s Breath and a touch of the dusty blue Wisteria. I loved that Tommy went with a Succulent as the main “flower” for the boutonniere.

I also got to design and create two custom hair pieces for Tommy and her daughter. We used the same mix of flowers from the bridal bouquet with a touch of smaller leafed greenery and of course those classy Peacock feathers had to make an appearance!

I was searching for examples of sunflowers and peacock feather bouquets and came across Love Is Blooming. I emailed Erin immediately when I saw she had made the exact combination that I was looking for. She was great to work with, very informative and kept me updated on the progress.

Peach, White, and Succulent Bridal Bouquet Recreation - Reveal and Review

While it’s too late for a Christmas gift idea for this year, a custom bridal bouquet recreation in silk flowers is a great idea for an anniversary, Valentine’s, birthday or ‘just because’ gift in 2023. Here’s a great example of a custom bouquet recreation for a local client. Spencer sent me a few photos of his wife’s bouquet, and I got to work finding the perfect flowers and greens to recreate it. Let’s take a look at the recreation and the original bouquet, side-by-side. Photos of the original bouquet are by the very talented Jordan Blanchard Photography.

This stunning bouquet was a mix of peach Cabbage Roses, white Hydrangea, pale peach Gardenia, white Astilbe, Succulents, Eucalyptus Seeds, Silver Dollar and Sword Eucalyptus in a round, handtied style.

My wife and I were living in New Orleans when we were married while we were renovating our house. After our wedding, our house came together, but her bouquet from it fell apart. Damaged from construction debris, dust, and eventually a move to Minnesota, we lost something we expected to cherish for a long time. We recently celebrated our four year anniversary and when my wife told me this years theme, I knew exactly what I wanted to get her. I searched online for bouquet recreations and stumbled on Erin. She was incredibly helpful, responsive, and clear in her communication. Most importantly, what she created is perfect. It’s hard to tell the difference between the original bouquet and the recreation.

Spencer was able to send me some awesome detail shots of the bouquet that allowed me to really examine it for all the details.

The original bouquet had a small wrapping of off white satin ribbon with a overlay of lace. While I wasn’t able to get the exact lace, I found a close enough piece that mimicked the original bouquet.

Coral and Teal Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal

Courtney reached out to me about creating custom silk wedding flowers with a slightly tropical vibe. Her colors were coral and teal and I used some sandier/taupe tones mixed in with white roses and greenery. Let’s take a look at some lovely images from Monica Mize Photography!

Courtney picked out a teardrop cascade shape for her bouquet. We filled it with Roses, Peonies, Ranunculus, mini Orchids, Seeded Eucalyptus and a spiky Succulent. It kind of reminded me of a Sea Anemone and was the perfect mix of mauve/peach for her bouquet!

What a great looking group! Courtney’s bridesmaids carried round handtied bouquets that were mostly coral and white with a pop of teal with a large Peony in the center. It kept everything cohesive and looked perfect with their dresses. Courtney also had a maid of honor wearing a dustier pink dress. At first we only had brighter coral flowers mixed in with the white and teal but then decided to add a more muted tone with some Toast Roses and it really helped blend Courtney’s bouquet with both color of bridesmaid dresses.

Courtney wanted all three colors incorporated into the boutonnieres so we used a white rose bud as the base with a few small coral orchids and a touch of teal accent flowers. Everyone matched!

Do you have a tropical themed wedding planned but it’s a little different than the usual pinks, yellows, oranges? I’d love to talk with you about your ideas! Fill out the Free Bride’s Checklist for a quote!

Silk Bridal Bouquet Review

Take a look at this joyful couple who got married recently! You may have seen my post a few days ago about Maggie’s bouquet which was inspired by an elopement bouquet I did earlier this year. Maggie sent me some lovely photos of her cascading sunflower and succulent bouquet in silk wedding flowers. Scroll down to see more photos from her big day and to read what she had to say about working with me. Photos were taken by Andre of Voida Visuall. Check him out on Facebook or IG (@voidavisuall).

I decided on silk flowers for my wedding bouquet and boutonniere. I reached out to Erin on her Love Is Blooming website and got a reply right away! I was very impressed with the whole experience. She has a very creative eye and sent updates of the bouquet while it was being created and made sure I was happy with it. Would 100% recommend if you are looking to go the silk flower route. Very reasonable pricing as well!
