Plum and Orange Silk Wedding Flowers

, , ,

I know I’ve been sharing a ton of last year (and probably this year’s) hot color in bridal bouquets — burgundy. But there are so many other color combinations out there worth mentioning! Today, I want to show you a really striking color scheme of plum and orange. Take a look at these gorgeous custom silk wedding flowers!

The cascading style bridal bouquet was a mix of plum Tea Roses and Peonies, orange Dahlia and Waxflower with Baby’s Breath and Seeded Eucalyptus to fill it all in.

The handtied bridesmaid bouquets and the clutch style toss bouquet had the same mix of flowers and colors to keep things all cohesive.

This custom swag is a great versatile piece. This could be hung from an arch or laid on a table in front of a unity candle. Then after the ceremony, it could be moved over to the head table or cake table for instant decor that does double duty! Now that’s a way to save some $$!!

The plum Tea Roses in the smallest bud size were a great flower to use for the boutonnieres and corsages. With just a touch of orange and white to tie it all together, they were perfect complements to the larger arrangments.

Silk Bridal Bouquet Recreations Reveal

, , , , ,

I don’t always get permission to share the original photos clients send me when recreating a bridal bouquet. But that doesn’t mean I can’t share the finished product! Here are three gorgeous and unique bridal bouquet recreations in silk wedding flowers that are totally worth sharing!

This first bouquet was a striking combination of Anemone, white Ranunculus, blush Roses, peach Hydrangea, Seeded Eucalyptus, white Heather, light green Eucalyptus seeds, Lamb’s Ear, chocolate Cosmos, and purple Eucalyptus in a cascade style bouquet. I just love the high contrast of the white and dark purples!

This next bouquet was for her destination wedding. It was a classic round style bouquet chock full of roses in a variety of whites and creams.

Here’s one more for your viewing pleasure :)

This last bouquet was so gorgeous and lush. It had a mix of Cabbage Roses in Peach and Cream, white Peonies, cream Ranunculus, white Hydrangea, and brighter pink Roses. Tucked throughout the bouquet were pretty clusters of larger scale pearls. It was such a sweet bouquet to recreate!

Hiking in With Your Northwoods Silk Wedding Flowers - A Destination Wedding

, , , ,

One of the many things I learned in 2020 was some flexibility. I saw that same quality in a lot of my clients this past year. Minnesota clients of mine, especially, had to switch plans, reschedule dates, change venues, and even adjust wedding party members. When Karen contacted me about her daughter’s wedding, I loved the creativity they had come up with to still go forward with her daughter’s wedding. They were going up north, hiking into their location and doing a small ceremony in the beauty of nature. Isn’t that awesome? It also presented a few unique challenges: the arrangements needed to be packable and small.

Take a look at the package of destination silk wedding flowers I put together for Karen and her daughter.

The bridal bouquet was a mix of a single white Peony, ivory Ranunuculus, Fern, Seeded Eucalyptus and some mixed greenery. Karen wanted everything to look woodsy and natural, so I wrapped the stems in a sage green satin ribbon.

There was one bridesmaid bouquet that needed to be even smaller and still incorporate the same flowers. I reduced the amount of Ranunculus and greenery for a cute clutch style bouquet.

The groom and groomsman each had a single Ranunculus for their boutonnieres with a different mix of greenery in each. Karen had ordered a small cake that they wanted a small custom cake arrangement made for. I created a topper that could either be placed directly in the center, on one corner/side spreading over the cake, or hanging over the edge of the cake on the side. I like to give options with these sorts of custom arrangements so the bride can decide what she likes best.

If 2020 left you in a tail spin and you feel like everything has to change for your upcoming wedding plans, take heart! One of the things you could check off your list is your wedding flowers. With custom silk wedding flowers, you can order ahead of time, see what they look like while they are being made, and have them on hand months ahead of time to deal with any changes that come your way. And if that means hiking into the Northwoods with your custom silk wedding flowers, I got your back! Contact me today for a free quote!

Sunflowers and Dusty Blue Silk Wedding Flowers

, , , ,

This elopement bridal bouquet inspired several more variations of bouquets and wedding flowers, and I have another to share with you today! Domenique used that silk bouquet as her inspiration, but wanted to add in a few elements to go with her color scheme. She liked the modified cascade style with Sunflowers, Succulents and Eucalyptus, but she wanted to get some dusty blue in there as well so I suggested some dusty blue Wisteria. Later, she decided some Peacock feathers would be the perfect element to up the elegance. We finished off the look with a combination of burlap and lace. Scroll down to read what Domenique had to say about collaborating on her bouquet with me.

“Received my bouquet in perfect time. Amazing customer service. Erin really worked with me and always kept me updated on my order. It was really important that I got my order in time and when I got it it was beyond my expectations. Thank you so much for making this part of my wedding process stress free.”
— Domenique | California

I made a couple boutonnieres to match the bridal bouquet. We kept them fairly simple with a small sunflower, baby’s breath, greenery and for the groom a sprig of Wisteria buds and a Peacock feather.

The corsages were equally simple with a mini Sunflower and bud, baby’s breath, Wisteria petals, and a small spray of rhinestones.

Thanks to Domenique for working so easily with me to design your custom silk wedding flowers.

Adjusting Expectation for Inspiration Photos for a Silk Flower Bouquet

, , , , ,

Elijah contacted me about a very unique bouquet he wanted to order for his fiancée’ in silk wedding flowers. He had an inspiration picture that we worked really hard to duplicate. The original bouquet had white Casablanca Lilies, lots of Spray Roses and Delphinium buds that trailed down the front in two distinct pieces. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to find Delphinium buds that were as large or as prolific as what he wanted. I found some mini Peony buds and, of all things, Hops that I mixed together to mimic the look of the trailing bud vines. For the greenery I added in some pieces of Smilax for a nice dark contrast to all the white flowers.

Elijah’s fiancée had a very specific vision for this bouquet, based off a bouquet she had seen a photo of and loved. This can be a tricky situation since I’m not working with the exact same material and had to make some substitutions. I asked Elijah each step along the way for his approval before coming up with the final design you see. There were some expectations that had to be adjusted, but Elijah was a great communicator and honest with me about he liked and didn’t like, what worked and what didn’t.

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.

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!”

Navy & Rosewood Silk Wedding Flower Bridal Bouquet

, ,

I absolutely loved Ali’s soft romantic color scheme: ivory and white with Rosewood pink and a hint of navy. She loved the idea of a modified cascade bouquet in silk wedding flowers so I chose some greenery that would contribute to a unique shape and style and here’s what we came up with!

The bridal bouquet was a modified cascade shape with ivory Roses, white Spray Roses, white Heather, Baby’s Breath and Rosewood pink Roses. I filled in the bouquet with 3 different varieties of Eucalyptus and tied it off with navy satin ribbon.

“Erin was AMAZING to work with! From quick replies, exceptional customer service, to the final product, she was phenomenal! I recommend her a thousand times over! Thank you, Erin!!”
— Ali | Minnesota

Ali had a variety of other arrangements that needed to match the same look and feel. She added an honorary arrangement for grandparents who had passed away or wouldn’t be able to attend the wedding. This smaller arrangement was designed to pop into a vase of Ali’s choosing and placed at her ceremony site.

The bridesmaid bouquets (left) had the same mix of flowers as the bridal bouquet, minus the spray roses. The junior bridesmaid and toss bouquets (right) were an even more scaled back version of the bridal bouquet. Still charming though!

Boutonnieres and Corsages can be an important part of your custom silk wedding flowers. Here’s what we came up with for Ali’s boutonnieres and corsages.

Last Minute Elopement Bridal Bouquet and Groom's Boutonniere

, , , , ,

Katelyn contacted me in a flurry of changed plans and needing immediate help. Because of COVID they had made the hard decision to postpone their wedding until 2021, but then decided to elope for a destination wedding to the mountains of Washington last minute. She needed a custom bridal bouquet in silk wedding flowers with a matching groom’s boutonniere with less than two weeks until the elopement date. I came up with a design lickety-split and here’s the final product!

The bridal bouquet was an offset modified cascade design. The main color was burgundy, so I added some Button mums and Amaranthus to ivory Roses and a variety of greenery including Seeded Eucalyptus, Lamb’s ear, Hydrangea buds, Eucalyptus and some other more delicate greenery. The groom’s boutonniere was an ivory Rose bud, Button Mum bud and mixed greens tied off with the same Antique White ribbon on the bridal bouquet.

“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!”

Fall Jewel Tone Silk Wedding Flowers

, , ,

I loved this color palette for April’s jewel toned silk wedding flowers. Her original plan was to include burgundy, plum, dusty blue and burnt orange in her arrangements and bridal bouquet. But when we got everything together, the orange stood out way too much for her and her fiance’s liking. So with a bit of editing and rearranging, we landed on these amazing, textural, bouquets full of depth and color. Take a look!

Bridal Bouquet

Antique White Satin Ribbon

April’s bridal bouquet was a modified cascade style with a mix of plum Ranunculus, burgundy Peonies, dusty blue Thistle, ivory Spray Roses, burgundy Lamb’s Ear and Eucalyptus and seeded Eucalyptus.

Bridesmaid Bouquet

Toss Bouquet

The bridesmaids bouquets were a bit smaller with most of the same elements, but we left out the Spray roses and tied them off with matching burgundy ribbon. April was able to direct me to swatches of the bridesmaid dress color, so I was able to match almost exactly the Peonies and the ribbon to their dress color. The toss bouquet was a variation of the bridal with the addition of some burgundy Baby’s Breath and tied off with the same ribbon as the bridal bouquet.

We matched the ribbon on the boutonnieres to the corresponding bouquets. The wrist corsages incorporated a little bit of each color and some greenery and the mothers’ got some bling to set them apart.

If you are looking for jewel toned flowers for your fall or winter wedding, silk flowers are a great choice!

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.

Sunflower Modified Cascade Silk Wedding Flowers- Part 2 Reveal & Review

James Erick Photography

What a beautiful and happy couple! And a great looking group to stand next to you on your big day!

James Erick Photography

“Can’t recommend her enough!

Erin is absolutely amazing, and so so kind!! I felt annoying asking for so many changes and specifications, but she was always optimistic and happy to help me get my desired looks! I could tell she genuinely cared about me and what i wanted my bouquets and bouts to look like.

I was worried that the silk flowers would be very obviously fake, but oh my god, they’re gorgeous. I didn’t know exactly what i was looking for at first, and she helped me figure out what it was that I wanted.

I loved the constant communication. She worked with me every step of the way, and that helped ease my worries about purchasing silk flowers online. She also works with your budget, which I really appreciated. I can’t recommend her enough. If you’re looking for silk flowers, talk to her! you will NOT regret it. She exceeded my expectations.

Thanks Erin!”

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.

Green and White Silk Wedding Flowers with Structure Arrangement for Destination Wedding

, , , , ,

Emily contacted me about custom arrangements for her destination wedding in the Bahamas. Not only did she want a silk bridal bouquet and matching silk bridesmaids bouquets, but she had an awesome plan for the ceremony structure at her tropical venue.

We started with the bouquets that were going to be a simple palette of green and white. Peonies, Sophia Garden Roses, Ranunculus and Baby’s Breath would be the main flower ingredients and those would be surrounded by a variety of Eucalyptus and seeds in a modified cascade style bouquet.

I scaled back the bridesmaid bouquets with a single Peony, loosely placed Ranunculus, a touch of Baby’s Breath and then surrounded it with Silver Dollar Eucalyptus and Seeds in an organically shaped handtied bouquet.

For the cake flowers, I created a simple topper with a Sophia Garden Rose, Ranunculus and Silver Dollar Eucalyptus. I also created a custom swag for around the base of the cake with a Peony, Ranunculus and Eucalyptus.

The real show stopper of this order of Emily’s silk wedding flowers was her custom structure arrangement made entirely with greenery. I had to climb a ladder to photograph it because there wasn’t an appropriate place in my house big enough! The custom altar arrangement was made up in 3 parts; a 27” swag and 2 garlands that were each about 6’ long. The structure at Emily’s venue is going to be 12’ long, so we needed something that would stretch across the entire span of it. This thing is going to have a big impact!
