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.”

Burgundy, Blush, and Navy Silk Wedding Flowers

, ,

Last week, I shared with you Jenna’s wedding flowers, coordinated by her sister Emily. This week, I want to share with you Hannah’s wedding flowers, coordinated by her mother Deborah. I seriously work with the nicest people, and Deborah is right at the top of the list. She provided me with inspiration photos for her bridal bouquet, feedback from Hannah, and coordinated delivery. Deborah was a great communicator and made my job so easy! Let’s take a look at Hannah’s custom silk wedding flowers!

The bridal bouquet was a teardrop cascade style of burgundy Peonies and Mums, blush Garden and Tea Roses, white Baby’s Breath, preserved burgundy Pine sprigs, green Seeds and Seeded Eucalyptus with burgundy ribbon wrap and blush pink ribbon tails.

“My daughter was finishing her senior year of college and really had no idea of flower design other than she wanted fake flowers. I was disappointed she wasn’t going for real ones, but I started researching for her and came across Erin’s site, Love is Blooming. After looking at ideas for color and style, I sent the ideas to my daughter to choose what she liked. Then I contacted Erin and shared with her Hannah’s choices. Erin was very friendly and so easy to work with her. The finished product was so beyond what I had expected, and I was beyond thrilled at the gorgeous results. From the boutonnières to the wrist corsages to the bouquets for the bridal party, every one of them looked real and so very beautiful that I was brought to tears. I highly recommend Erin and her high quality of work You will not be disappointed.”
— Deborah | Indiana

The bridesmaid bouquets were a round handtied style with a different mix of flowers. It included blue Tea Roses, a navy Ranunculus, burgundy Thistle, Blueberries, white Ranunculus, burgundy Roses and Mums, Seeded Eucalyptus, burgundy Preserved Pine, and Lamb’s Ear. I love how the mix of flowers is so different from the bridal bouquet, and yet they go together perfectly!

Deborah decided to add on a few more items later including this cute little toss bouquet. I chose a few of the flowers from the bridal bouquet to mix together for a clutch size toss bouquet.

Burgundy and Gold Silk Wedding Flowers-Rustic Details & Bling

, ,

It’s not too often that a rustic themed wedding gets some sparkle added to it. But bride Elsie knew she wanted some elements of both! Her designs featured burgundy Roses and the ever-so-classic Sunflower. The classic round style bouquets showcased both flowers beautifully!

As I mentioned above, Elsie had a rustic theme going, but wanted some bling. I made some suggestions and she sent me a few inspiration photos and we landed on a few elements that made her bridal bouquet a little extra special. We started with a burlap wrap and collar around the base of the bouquet. Elsie also liked the idea of lace and a bit of ribbon, so we added those touches to the stems, over the burlap wrap. And because she also loved the idea of bling, I added some individual rhinestones to each Rose and a few small sprays of clear beads to give it a little extra something.

“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!!!”

The bridesmaids carried smaller versions of the bridal bouquet, but we simplified their stem wrap to just have burlap with a band of lace over the top. The toss bouquet (right) was a cute little clutch that included that added band of burgundy ribbon to look more closely like the wrap on the bridal bouquet.

The boutonnieres and corsages were all made to match the color scheme and overall feel of the bouquets. I used twine for an accent to finish them up, with an added spray of rhinestones for the mothers’ corsages. Here they are all labeled and ready to go.

White Silk Wedding Flowers with Greenery- Part 2 Larger Scale Blooms

, ,

Earlier this week, I showed you some white silk wedding flowers with greenery that had a delicate, almost lacy look. Today is about impact and contrast! These weddings flowers and bridal bouquet used larger scale blooms to fill out the bouquets. The added greenery really stood out against all the white for an eye-catching look!

The bridal bouquet was a round ball style bouquet with white Roses and Tulips and a mix of Columnea Fern, Ficus and Rose Greens.

The bridesmaid bouquets were smaller versions of the bridal bouquet. All bouquets were wrapped with white satin ribbon.

The toss bouquet was a clutch size version of the bridal bouquet with just a few roses and tulips with a touch of greenery.

The boutonnieres were very clean and classy white tulips and spray roses with the same greenery and ribbon.

White Silk Wedding Flowers with Greenery- Part 1 Delicate Blooms

, ,

This week, I want to feature a couple of weddings where the main event was white wedding flowers and greenery. Today, we’re going the delicate route! This bride knew she wanted a mix of Baby’s Breath, Lily of the Valley and Greenery. I suggested we add in a few Stephanotis to mix up the sizing of flowers but still keeping it smaller scaled. She liked my greenery suggestions of Olive greens, Lamb’s Ear and Silver Dollar Eucalyptus. Here’s the silk bridal bouquet:

For the bridesmaid bouquets, she wanted to reduce the size, and composition. They were made up of Baby’s Breath, Stephanotis and just a few leaves of greenery.

The toss bouquet was a smaller version of the bridal bouquet with some ribbon tails. The boutonnieres and corsages incorporated all our pretty little buds in different combinations. We did add a spray rose to the mother’s pin on corsages to make them a little more substantial.

Check back later this week to see another example of white silk wedding flowers with greenery!

Moody Winter Wedding Colors in Silk Flowers

, ,

Winter can be a bright, shiny, time of year. But if that’s not the vibe you want in your silk wedding flowers for your bridal bouquet, then this post is for you! These moody winter wedding colors of navy, burgundy, gray and white were a fun mix for a January wedding. Just a hint of greenery kept it from being completely dark and jewel-toned, but we kept it minimal in order to provide just a touch of contrast.

The bridal bouquet was a mix of navy Peonies, burgundy berries and Calla Lilies, white Roses, gray Dusty Miller and Eucalyptus in a classic tear drop cascade style.

The bridesmaid and toss bouquets were mix of all the same flowers, but in a round handtied style. SIlver ribbon finished off all the arrangements to tie in more of her color scheme.

Sunflower Yellow and Navy Blue Silk Wedding Flowers with Altar Arrangements

, , ,

I’m convinced that sunflowers, along with roses will always be classic wedding flowers. And there might not be a better complementary color than navy with the deep gold hues of the Sunflowers. These silk wedding flowers are a great example of that color combination. Take a look!

This classic, round style bridal bouquet consisted of white Roses, Sunflowers, navy Ranunculus and white Baby’s Breath.

We simplified the bridesmaid bouquets to be white Hydrangea and Sunflowers so that the bridal bouquet stood out even more. If you are looking for a way to make the bridal bouquet different, but are worried about it not “matching,” this is a great example of how to make all the arrangements work together but different.

The toss bouquet was a mini version of the bridal bouquet with some fun ribbon tails added.

For altar arrangements, I created two mirror-image pieces to hang on her arch. It was mostly greenery for impact, with a few flowers to bring in their color scheme.

The reception venue included a fireplace that they wanted a custom piece to decorate the mantel. I created this garland of white Hydrangea, navy Peonies, white Roses, Sunflowers and mixed greenery.

Navy, Purple, and Plum Custom Silk Wedding Flowers

, , , ,

This was a new-to-me color combination, and I was all for it! Plum, purple and navy; moody, deep, complicated, simple, romantic, vibrant, striking…I could keep going, but let’s just get to the pictures. The silk bridal bouquet was a mix of navy and purple Calla Lilies, plum Tea Roses, navy Ranunculus, mini purple Tiger Lilies and Silver Dollar Eucalyptus in a modified cascade style.

We simplified the bridesmaid bouquets with just some plum Tea Roses, navy and purple Calla Lilies and just a touch of Eucalyptus.

The toss bouquet usually reflects the bridal bouquet in some way. This clutch style bouquet had the same flowers as the bridal bouquet, including the mini purple Tiger Lilies and navy Ranunculus. We added a little to it with some satin ribbon tails in navy.

The boutonnieres had a classic look with a single Calla and greens and a Ranunculus bud for the groom’s boutonniere.

These hair pieces were added a little later. The larger piece was for the bride and incorporated all her colors. The smaller style was for the bridesmaids and just had a hint of plum with the greenery.

And let’s not forget the flower girl! This cute flower crown was a base of baby’s breath with some plum flower blossoms for a dainty, but matching look.

Burgundy, Blush, and Dusty Blue Silk Wedding Flowers

, ,

It’s still March, and I’m still getting a ton of requests for Burgundy themed custom wedding flowers. Here’s another great example of incorporating Burgundy into silk wedding flowers. This color combo of dusty blue, blush pink, sage green and burgundy is a great example of using burgundy without making the arrangements all dark and moody. These feel light and bright, and that pop of jewel tone adds a nice surprise to these bouquets.

The bridal bouquet was a modified cascade style with blush pink Roses, burgundy Dahlia, ivory Spray Roses, dusty blue Thistle, blush pink Seeds and two kinds of Eucalyptus.

The Maid of Honor bouquet was pared down to have a single burgundy Dahlia, blush Roses, dusty blue Thistle and Eucalyptus. The bridesmaid bouquets (see below) were all the same, but without the burgundy Dahlia. These designs kept everything feeling sames-ies but let the bridal bouquet stand out a little from the rest.

Here’s the cute little toss bouquet that was a mini version of the bridal bouquet.

The boutonnieres and corsages used the same flowers as the bouquets.

Galaxy Orchids and Picasso Calla Lilies Featured in Custom Silk Wedding Flowers

, , ,

If you live in the Midwest then you know how quickly the weather changes. Why shouldn’t my blog reflect that? Last week, I showed you a gorgeous set of winter wedding flowers, and today, I give you spring colors. Gotta keep you guessing! Tiana’s gorgeous custom flowers were for her small wedding. But don’t be fooled, this small wedding was big on impact!

These custom silk wedding flowers were designed hand in hand with me and the bride for a truly custom look. She knew she wanted Galaxy Orchids and Picasso Calla Lilies with a hint of yellow mixed in. Here bridal bouquet was a traditional tear drop cascade that was bursting with color and variety. It included the Callas and Orchids along with lavender and white Roses, Baby’s Breath, yellow Forsythia, purple Heather Fern and Lamb’s Ear. She also wanted some bling, so I added in some larger scale rhinestones throughout to give it some shine.

The toss bouquet was much smaller but still contained all the same elements in a round handtied style bouquet.

We used all the colors to fill out both the boutonnieres and corsages.

This custom altar arrangement was a garland with Lamb’s Ear as the base, ivory and lavender Roses, lavender Heather, Picasso Calla Lilies, Galaxy Orchids, Forsythia and Fern and was almost 6’ long. This would grace a table at the front of their venue. An arrangement like this is so versatile because you can have someone move it to the reception site after the ceremony is done. Lay it on your head table, along the gift table, around the cake, or even down the center of a banquet style table.

Ivory, Champagne and Dusty Rose Silk Wedding Flowers

, , ,

Carmen’s ivory, champagne and dusty rose silk wedding flowers were so fun to create. She opted for a modified cascade style bridal bouquet with a distinctly asymmetrical shape. Her bouquet was unique, the colors romantic, and the look was so classy. Scroll down to take a look!

We wanted to come up with a really soft looking bouquet. I suggested Cymbidium Orchids, toast colored Roses, ivory Peonies, dusty rose Mums, small pink Cosmos, and Lamb’s Ear.

The matching toss bouquet incorporated one Cymbidium Orchid, a toast colored Rose, dusty pink Mum, and some Lamb’s Ear with ribbon.

The matching boutonnieres and corsages:

Burgundy and White Silk Wedding Flowers

, , ,

Earlier this year I waxed poetic about sunflowers, and cascading bridal bouquets, and probably the color purple. But I hereby declare 2020 (besides being a ridiculous year) the year of burgundy wedding flowers. And as I just sent my first 2021 wedding off to it’s happy home, it looks like burgundy may be the color of 2021 as well. Here’s another example of some beautiful burgundy silk wedding flowers for a wedding earlier this fall.

Morgan initially approached me about creating a custom modified cascade style bridal bouquet for herself. She hoped to DIY the rest of her bouquets to save money. But after she saw her show stopping custom bridal bouquet in silk wedding flowers, she came back for a second order that included bridesmaid bouquets and a toss bouquet to match. Take a look at these modern styled bouquets filled with lush greenery and high contrast colors.

The bridal bouquet was a mix of burgundy Peonies, white Roses, Seeded and Blue Eucalyptus, Sage greenery, white Heather, and green Amaranthus. This unique shape, the modified cascade, is becoming more popular as brides are looking for a more modern take on a traditional tear drop cascade.

The bridesmaid bouquets were smaller clutch style bouquets with just a handful of the burgundy Peonies and white Roses. I gave it that same loose look with all that awesome greenery.

Toss bouquets are traditionally smaller than the bridesmaid bouquets. Though there is always the option for a bigger bouquet if you want something more substantial to toss. Morgan opted for a smaller toss bouquet that we set apart with some pretty ribbon tails (left photo). She also decided to order a mini bouquet for her flower girl. It was essentially the same size as the toss bouquet, just without the ribbon tails.

White and Gold in Silk Wedding Flowers

, , ,

Elizabeth’s classic color palette of white, ivory, and gold was a fun one to work with. She had a wide variety of flowers that she liked and we were able to incorporate almost all of them. Her silk bridal bouquet was a modified cascade style with ivory Roses, ivory Ranunculus, white Anemone, Queen Anne’s Lace, white Baby’s Breath, Lamb’s Ear, and 3 different types of Eucalyptus.

I used a sheer gold ribbon to give a nice contrast to all the whites and ivory flowers and also add a bit of shimmer.

The bridesmaid bouquets matched the bridal in flower and style with a looser composition, but not as much cascading pieces.

The toss bouquet was a small clutch style bouquet with just a handful of flowers, but all the same style and elegance as the other bouquets.

What did you think of this color palette? Love it as is or maybe would you add a pop of color? If you are looking for ways to customize your floral decor to match your color scheme, fill out the Free Bride’s Checklist for a quote and to receive ideas.

Peony Silk Wedding Flowers and Bridal Bouquet

, ,

Peonies are one of my favorite flowers, so I love getting to incorporate them into bridal bouquets and wedding flowers. Because they are a nice full flower, they fill in an arrangement using fewer flowers, but have a romantic texture that softens up any bouquet.

This bridal bouquet was a mix of ivory roses and peonies with blush pink large and mini Peonies and wrapped in Antique White ribbon.

The bridesmaids bouquets were a nice complement to the bridal and feature ivory roses and peonies and a few blush peonies. We matched the ribbon on these bouquets too.

One of the special arrangements I created to match the other wedding flowers was an honorary Grandparent’s arrangement. This is a thoughtful way to honor grandparents who are not able to attend the ceremony or who have passed away. In this case, we added some red roses as a way to include her grandmother’s favorite color. I also added a little bit of Lamb’s ear to set it apart from the bouquets.

The toss bouquet was a slight variation on both the bridal and the bridesmaids bouquets and was composed of ivory and blush Peonies and ivory Spray Roses. I added ribbon tails onto the wrap so it looks a little more dramatic as it gets tossed through the air.

Peonies aren’t usually used for boutonnieres and corsages because of their size. In this case, the mini Peonies were a great option for both!

Cake flowers are a great way to tie it all your themes together at the reception. These small clusters will be placed on a few of the layers of the cake. Just a touch of pink, ivory and Lamb’s ear.

Maybe you like Peonies or maybe it’s the blush and ivory combination. Or maybe it’s the look of a round style bridal bouquet that caught your eye. Whatever your style or colors, fill out the Free Bride’s Checklist for a quote on your dream wedding flowers!

Lavender, Violet, and Ivory Silk Wedding Flowers

, ,

Lavender has been another hot color this year. And what’s fun is that my brides have chosen some really pretty ways to accent the lavender. This custom silk cascading bridal bouquet is a great example of using a pastel color in a mix of wedding flowers and textures so that it doesn’t feel dated or too muted.

I used a violet Phalaenopsis Orchid along with lavender and ivory Roses with some Smilax for a pop of green. I really like how the contrast between the ivory and violet is bridged by that soft lavender.

Antique white ribbon for a bridal touch.

The matching bridesmaid bouquet was a really pretty mix of lavender Roses, a few violet Orchids and Smilax. I wrapped the handle with Rosewater ribbon which is a nice in between pink and purple shade. It was a perfect fit on for this bouquet.

silk-wedding-flowers-custom-bridal-bouquet.jpg

The cute little toss bouquet incorporated ivory and lavender Roses and violet Orchids. I wrapped the handle in Antique White satin ribbon and added tails in Rosewater.

Burgundy and Blush Centerpieces and Silk Wedding Flowers

, ,

Here’s another great example of burgundy and blush silk wedding flowers. And if you check back later this week, you’ll get to see these babies in action!

Samantha really loved the Amaranthus seen in some of my other weddings so we found a great way to work it into not only her bridal bouquet, but the centerpieces for her reception. Amaranthus is really quite a statement “flower” and is so unique because of the shape and the texture. It’s the perfect addition to a modified cascading bridal bouquet like Samantha’s.

Roses, Dahlia, Amaranthus, Cherry Blossom, Lamb’s Ear, Seeded Eucalyptus

For the centerpieces, I designed two different styles. Both included ivory and blush roses, seeded Eucalyptus, dyed Pine Branch and Amaranthus. One style had ivory Amaranthus like the photo below and the other had burgundy Amaranthus. They sat very regally atop Eiffel Tower Vases at a height that made ya look, but didn’t get in the way of guests conversing across the tables.

The bridesmaids carried bouquets with the same flowers, minus the Amaranthus in loose, handtied styles. One thing to be aware of when you choose asymmetrical and looser style bouquets is that each one will be slightly different. Part of that is because they are handmade, and part of that is because some flowers will lay a little differently when spread out from the rest.

Later this week, I’ve got photos from Samantha and her talented photographer to share with you. What are you thinking of this modified cascade style bridal bouquet? If you think it would be a good fit for you, contact me today to see if it will fit with your style!

Champagne, Ivory, Gray and Dusty Blue Silk Wedding Flowers

, ,

Haley’s gorgeous wedding flowers were so fun to design. She loved the idea of incorporating some champagne wedding flowers into her silk bridal bouquet to match her dress which was ivory and champagne with beading. Her guys were going to be all in gray and the bridesmaids would be in dusty blue, so we wanted to find ways to make it all go together for a very soft and lush look.

This modified cascade style bridal bouquet was stunning. The dahlias, roses, baby’s breath, lamb’s ear and gray winter berries were just the right amount of texture and soft colors to stand out in a crowd.

The bridesmaid bouquets were almost all ivory with roses and baby’s breath but at the last minute Haley wanted to add in some gray Brunia Berries for a little contrast. We used the lamb’s ear again to soften it up around the edges so they weren’t too round of bouquets. Haley really wanted the bouquets to look looser and less formal in their shape. So adding the lamb’s ear at opposite edges and asymmetrically really did the trick.

The cute little toss bouquet matched the bridal bouquet.

Champagne can be a tricky color, not too peachy, or pinky or pale; just the right amount of color. Maybe your dress isn’t the traditional bridal white. Not a problem! Contact me today to work on design ideas.

Wild Winter Wedding with Silk Wedding Flowers

, , ,

I thought this post would be a good kickoff to the official first day of winter! With Christmas right around the corner, I wanted to show you something that captures the spirit of winter without being all, “Hey, I’m a Christmas bouquet!”

They say snowflakes are all different, so why can’t wedding flowers? I get the luxury of coming up with custom designs for my brides. There are no books of silk wedding flower packages to limit you to. If you can dream it, I can do it!

I feel like Emily’s flowers fall into this category. She wanted a wild, winter look for her December wedding flowers with twigs, branches, pussy willow, mistletoe and pops of jewel tones to accent her green wedding dress.

Her bouquet was another “may appear bigger in real life” bouquet that is just magical. The blue thistle pays homage to her fiance’s Scottish background, and the bits of burgundy Eucalyptus keep this bouquet on the warmer side of becoming too frosty.

Herer’s the toss bouquet that matches the bridal bouquet in a simpler style.

custom-wedding-flowers-bridal-bouquet-toss-bouquets.jpg

We went a little different route with the bridesmaid bouquets. Instead of them closely matching the bridal bouquet, we used more of the burgundy with some Calla lilies, along with the white Freesia, blue Thistle, Boxwood, Pussy Willow, and Mistletoe.

The boutonnieres and corsages used a little bit of everything so that we could customize some of the personal flowers based on who would be wearing them.

Lavender, Plum, and Ivory Silk Wedding Flowers

, ,

Plum is one of those amazing jewel tones that usually gets paired up with other jewel tones-teal, burgundy, gold, etc. But I took it another direction and lightened things up a bit with lavender and ivory with some soft gray greenery in this silk bridal bouquet and wedding flowers.

This cascading bridal bouquet of Ranunculus, Roses, Lavender and Lamb’s ear is soft and romantic, but also eye catching with the high contrast of plum and ivory.

“My flowers were above & beyond my expectations. The colors were stunning, and the quality was immaculate. The price was nothing compared to the way my flowers looked. Absolutely beautiful job!!”
— Justine | Minnesota

The bridesmaid bouquet was a handtied style without the traditional round shape. By spreading out the Lamb’s ear and keeping it loose and playful, we have bridesmaid bouquets that are memorable and fun.

This simple toss bouquet incorporates all the color and all the flowers and greenery in a sweet little clutch bouquet.

Burgundy and Blush Silk Wedding Flowers

, , ,

Burgundy and Blush might have been someone’s million dollar idea this year. Even though I don’t know who decided it would be a hot color combo for bridal bouquets this year, I do know that I’ve loved all the different designs that have come out of it for silk wedding flowers here in my corner of Minnesota.

Anna wanted mostly the wine/burgundy in her bouquets with just a hint of blush. Her bridal bouquet was the modified cascade style draping, texture, and saturated colors. Basically she had a dreamy, romantic bridal bouquet with Dahlia, Calla Lilies, Cherry Blossom, Ranunculus, Babys’ Breath, and Eucalyptus. All the bouquets were finished up with a lovely burlap with lace overlay. It added to the rustic charm that Anna was hoping for.

The bridesmaids carried similar style bouquets with some slight changes that would allow the bridal bouquet to stand out a little more. The toss bouquet had the same variety of flowers as the bridal bouquet, just smaller and more throwable…throwier…aerodynamic!

Bridesmaid and Toss Bouquet

Here are some of the boutonnieres using the every classic and trust-worthy Calla Lily in a dark burgundy. These guys never let you down on your wedding day, especially because they are silk and you never have to worry about them getting crushed in all those bro-hugs or wilting in our unpredictable Minnesota weather.

Maybe you didn’t come up with this winning color combination, but you definitely want to use it in your own wedding. Fill out the Free Bride’s Checklist to get a quote and get the design process started with me!
