Bridal bouquet

Bright Beach Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

Charlee reached out to me for help when the original silk bridal bouquet she ordered from a different florist didn’t live up to her expectations. While there were some elements of her purchase that she liked, it pretty much needed to be remade. I started sending her options of what I could add to it and how I could reshape it to bring her vision to life. What we ended up designing together is a stunner of a bouquet for her tropical wedding last year. Let’s take a look at the photos by Silverfox Studios of New York.

Charlee’s bouquet needed to stand out on such a big and beautiful back drop. Her modified cascade bridal bouquet was a mix of blue Hydrangea, orange Hibiscus and Orchids, flame Succulents, pink Peonies, green Hydrangea, Gloriosa lilies, yellow Roses, Cymbidium orchids, red and green Anthurium and a whole bunch of tropical foliage. She loved the idea of trailing ribbon, so we finished off the bouquet with a ribbon wrap and tails.

Thanks for my amazing wedding bouquet; so pretty and bright, exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for making the time to re-do my original bouquet that I had made. You made my day very happy once I received what I imagined it to look like : ) The guests all loved my bouquet and commented that it was very beautiful, unique and stunning.
— Charlee | New York

Charlee had ordered bridesmaid bouquets prior to working with me and I loved how she had chosen to go simple with white flowers and greenery so that their varying shades of dress colors would stand out.

She also sent me this photo of how she displays her bouquet at home. I love the branch full of shells and beach glass to go with it!

Burgundy and Navy Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

Last week’s post featured a shade of blue that’s coming on the scene and picking up speed. Today, I want to share with you a wedding that features a tried and true combo: burgundy and navy blue! I’ve done quite a few weddings with this combination over the last few years as more and more couples chose navy instead of black for suits and tuxes. And today’s wedding is a great example of that. Let’s take a look at these very pretty images from Beauridge Photography.

Here’s my gorgeous bride Brittany who was so generous to share her pictures with me. Her loose, round handtied style bridal bouquet was a mix of burgundy Roses and Dahlia, navy Ranunculus, white Roses and Baby’s Breath, Lamb’s Ear and Seeded Eucalyptus.

Erin was amazing to work with. The flowers turned out even better than I could have ever imagined! She always stayed in contact with me throughout the process and she was super affordable. Several of my bridesmaids have their flowers displayed in their homes. I love that I can keep my bridal bouquet for years to come. Thank you Erin for everything!
— Brittany | New Jersey

The bridesmaid bouquets were a mix of the same greenery, Baby’s breath and featured on burgundy Dahlia and one navy Ranunculus. It allowed Brittany’s bouquet to stand out even more!

The groom wore a boutonniere of a burgundy rose, navy Ranunculus and mixed greenery.

Brittany wanted some cake flowers and opted to order a loose assortment of flowers and greens for her baker to place on the cake. It is a great option if you are still decided on a topper or just want to have options!

If you lean towards the classic side of things, whether in color or in style, there are so many options to still make your silk wedding flowers customized to you! Fill out the Free Bride’s Checklist today for a quote and to start the design process with me for your dream wedding flowers.

Salmon, Dusty Blue and White Silk Wedding Flowers- Reveal and Review

Dusty blue was a hot color in 2022 and I fully expect it to stick around through 2023. You may have seen it on my blog paired with yellow, blush pink, burgundy and even lavender! Today, I get to share a pairing that you might not expect, but as you’ll soon see, it’s an amazing combo. Salmon and dusty blue for the win!

Let’s take a look at these gorgeous wedding photos from Paige’s wedding day. These were taken by the very talented Palms and Lace Photo.

Here’s our lovely bride, Paige! Her loose, round, handtied style bridal bouquet was a mix of ivory Sophia Roses, white Anemone, ivory Cabbage Roses with peach centers, salmon Delphinium, white Larkspur, dusty blue Roses, Seeded and small leaf Eucalyptus.

The bridesmaids wore beautiful dusty blue dresses and carried a mix of the bridal flowers in smaller clutch style bouquets. We wrapped them matching dusty blue ribbon to add a little more color.

The groom’s boutonniere incorporated both main colors while we simplified the groomsmen to have a white Anemone and a touch of the salmon Delphinium.

Now that you have all the details, enjoy these lovely images from their ceremony!

Love is Blooming was able to give me exactly what I was looking for for my wedding! I shopped around for a while, but no florist could guarantee I could get the colors and flowers I wanted, and I wouldn’t be able to see them in advance. Love is Blooming gave me the exact colors and worked with me throughout the entire process to create what I wanted so that there would be no surprises on my wedding day. I would absolutely recommend working with her!
— Paige | Utah

Paige also added to her order some small centerpieces. We featured the Cabbage Roses, salmon Delphinium and Eucalyptus for simple and pretty pieces. She purchases vases she liked and these mini bouquets just had to be dropped in before the big day.

Thanks again to Paige for sharing her big day with us! Are you looking for a unique spin on a well loved color for your wedding color scheme? Let’s talk!

Black and Burgundy Fall Silk Wedding Flowers- Reveal and Review

Back in November, I shared a stunning black, red and burgundy wedding. Today, I get to share another eye catching combo of black and burgundy that features another black wedding dress! Let’s take a look at Carlie’s unique and stunning wedding! Photos are by Alexis Ziemski you can find her on Instagram @lenscapkid. 

With a dress like this, the flowers need to add, not take away from it. Carlie’s bouquet was a modified cascade style of burgundy Roses, black Roses, black Baby's Breath, burgundy and white Callas, black Eucalyptus and satin ribbon.

The bridesmaids wore burgundy which was a great match to the roses. Their bouquets were round handtied style with the same mix of flowers and “greenery.”

I worked with Erin for my wedding bouquets and they turned out perfect! Erin was absolutely wonderful through out the entire process!

Bold and Bright Spring Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

Today’s bride, Kimberly, filled out the Free Bride’s Checklist and also included links to bouquets that had caught her eye. What I noticed right away were the bright colors, varying textures of the flowers and sunflowers! I got a little excited about her designs and sent her a bunch of ideas. Then, I looked at everything a second time and sent her a whole bunch more options. What we landed on is bold, bright and a little spunky. Let’s take a look at the professional wedding photos by Amy Galimore Photography

Kimberly’s bouquet was a loose and lush round handtied style bouquet with sunflowers, purple Hydrangea, magenta Cabbage Roses, orange and pink Ranunculus, blue Prunus, orange Cosmos, blue Dogwood, yellow Freesia, lavender seeds, and light green Roses. You almost have to look at it twice to see everything that’s in there!

The groom’s boutonniere was a mini Sunflower, purple Hydrangea, and pink and orange Ranunculus. We tied it off with twine to have a similar texture to the burlap that all the bouquets were wrapped with.

The lovely bridesmaids wore purple dresses and those bright tones really popped against such a rich backdrop!

Erin did a fantastic job with the flowers for my wedding! She was quick to respond and came up with beautiful combinations! She incorporated everything I asked for and more! Highly recommend!
— Kimberly | South Carolina

Kimberly also wanted to incorporate matching florals to the large arbor for their outdoor ceremony. She opted for two altar arrangements to attach to the sides of the arbor. The swags matched the bridal bouquet flowers on a bed of eucalyptus.

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.
— Alex | Minnesota

Thanks again to Alex for sharing her day with us!

White and Green Bridal Bouquet Recreation - Reveal and Review

Austin contacted me about recreating his wife’s beautiful, orchid filled bouquet for their upcoming anniversary.

The bouquet was a mix of white Roses and Hydrangea, white Cymbidium Orchids with Burgundy tips and green berries. It was wrapped with white satin ribbon and finished off with a neat bow.

My wife loved the bouquet so thank you again so much for your great and quick work!

Dusty Rose and Ivory Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

I love to share all my weddings, but the soft and romantic color palettes will always have my heart! Jennifer’s custom silk wedding flowers were a mix of white and dusty pink flowers with a touch of greenery. I was so excited to show her a few new options I had found including the dusty pink Lilac. Those lacey little flowers added so much texture with just a kiss of color. Let’s take a look at these wonderful images by Nikki Joachim Photography to see what Jennifer and I came up with together!

Jennifer specified that she wanted a loose look to the bouquets with space between things. She decided on the round handtied style, and I made some suggestions for a full bouquet that wouldn’t mean every flower would be packed in tightly. Her bouquet consisted of champagne Roses, ivory Ranunculus, dusty pink Lilac, white seeds, Lamb's Ear, white Larkspur, ivory Garden Roses, Silver Dollar Eucalyptus and small leaf Eucalyptus.

Jennifer’s bridesmaid carried a matching style bouquet, just a bit smaller. The boutonnieres combined the ivory flowers and bits of the dusty pink Lilac with greenery to match the ladies.

Erin was easy to work with and finished the project much earlier than I expected. I just showed her a few photos of what I liked and she created something beautiful with them.
— Jennifer | Minnesota

At the altar was a table that I designed a swag/garland combination piece for. The center was a spray of Roses, Lilac and greens with long Eucalyptus pieces trailing from both sides. It filled the table nicely without being over the top. The best part is, they were able to use at there reception site for their sweetheart table as well.

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.

peach-white-succulent-custom-bridal-bouquet-recreation
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 | Minnesota

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.

Early Fall Silk Wedding Flowers on the Mississippi River - Reveal and Review

It’s such an honor when a friend chooses me to create their custom silk wedding flowers. And today, I get to share my friend with you! I have known Shayna and her family for over 15 years, so being asked to create flowers for her early fall wedding on the Mississippi River was a treat for me! Let’s take a look at some of the beautiful images by her very talented photographer, Nicole Krause Photography.

Shayna’s bouquet was a modified cascade style with a mix of lavender Cabbage Roses, blue Hydrangea and Lilacs, white Garden Roses and Lily of the Valley and Lavender. Several of the flowers were chosen because of special people in the family and I thought that was such a sweet touch.

Shayna’s bridesmaids carried round handtied bouquets with a mix of the bridal flowers. The boutonnieres for the bridal party included Roses, Lavender and Hydrangea in simple styles.

Erin knew exactly what I wanted when I didn’t know! She is so kind, and I am so happy she made my wedding flowers and bridal bouquet. Thank you, Erin!
— Shayna | Minnesota

The setting for the ceremony and reception were so naturally beautiful and they had this awesome arch made for their ceremony. I created two altar arrangements to complement the wedding colors and flowers without taking away from the beauty of the surroundings.

Shayna designed her own table decor and purchased bulk quantities of the flowers to arrange in jars with fairy lights and on the tables. It was the perfect touch of color and florals to tie everything together!

A big thanks to Shayna for trusting me to create her custom silk wedding flowers for her special day.

Plum, Lavender and Gray Silk Wedding Flowers- Reveal and Review

I’m excited to get to share another beautiful purple themed wedding with you today. Kennedy contacted me looking for custom silk wedding flowers with a variety of shades of purple and white flowers. I made some flower suggestions based on the inspiration photos she sent me and we collaborated on the composition of the bouquets until everything was just right. Let’s take a look at some of these lovely images provided by her photographer, TwentySix Photography. You can also find them on Facebook.

Here’s our beautiful bride, Kennedy! Her bridal bouquet was a teardrop cascade style with a mix of white Garden Roses, lavender Cabbage Roses, lavender gray Peonies, Lavender, plum Cosmos, lavender Freesia, white Heather and seeds and Ruscus.

Kennedy really liked the look of the boutonnieres being made of a mix of smaller, more delicate flowers. I played around with the combinations to make sure we included her colors, but kept them unique.

The bridesmaids carried round handtied style bouquets with the same mix of flowers to compliment Kennedy’s bouquet and their dresses.

The flowers turned out better than I could have imagined ! So easy to put the order together with what I wanted and even make simple changes throughout.
— Kennedy | West Viriginia

The sweet flower girl got a matching floral crown with touches of lavender, plum and white for a perfectly cohesive, and adorable, look.

Custom Silk Flower Bridal Bouquet - Reveal and Review

Back in June, I shared Sarah’s custom silk bridal bouquet I made to match her existing bridesmaid bouquets. It was a lovely mix of purple and white flowers with a touch of navy. Her silk bridal bouquet was a loose, round hand-tied style full of white Garden and Cabbage Roses, lavender Garden Roses, medium purple Ranunculus and cabbage Roses, plum tea Roses, Lavender, white Baby’s Breath, Waxflower and Blueberries. I made it nice and lush with adding a variety of greenery, including: Lamb’s Ear, Silver Dollar Eucalyptus, Standard Eucalyptus and Ruscus. Her accent color was navy, so she chose a satin navy ribbon to finish off her bouquet. Today I get to share a few photos from Sarah’s big day provided by her photographer Emily Anderson Photography. Check her out here on Instagram and here on Facebook.

Erin was wonderful to work with. I sent her some ideas I had in mind for my bridal bouquet and colors. She sent me a mock up super fast and was great at changing out flowers I didn’t like. I loved my bouquet and so happy with how it turned out. I was so afraid of my flowers looking fake and I can contest it was absolutely beautiful and far from looking fake. I would recommend Erin and go to her again for any floral need.

Spring Colors Silk Bridal Bouquet Recreation - Reveal and Review

Victor reached out to me about recreating his wife’s beautiful bouquet in silk wedding flowers for an anniversary present.

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!

Sunflowers, Coral Pink and White Silk Wedding Flowers-Reveal

I have the sweetest set of wedding photos to share with you today. Caitlin was a local bride who I got to meet and work with and she has the best smile! Her vision for her custom silk wedding flowers included featuring some sunflowers and greenery and a touch of coral pink. She wanted a more natural outdoorsy look to the bouquets to reflect their interests and personalities. And speaking of personality, Caitlin had custom shoes painted to match the wedding flowers!! So without giving too much more away, let’s take a look at these beautiful images from So.Jean Photography of Caitlin’s sunflower, coral pink and white silk wedding flowers.

Caitlin’s bouquet was a loose cascading style bridal bouquet with Sunflowers, white Anemone, Ranunculus and Larkspur, coral pink Lilac, seeded filler, Lamb’s Ear, Silver Dollar and Seeded Eucalyptus. It was lush, full, classic and such a fun design to collaborate on!

This detail shot is awesome and shows those custom shoes off.

The bridesmaids wore sage green dresses in a variety of styles and carried loose handtied round bouquets that had the same mix of flowers and greenery as the bridal bouquet. The boutonnieres were Anemone with a touch of the coral pink Lilac, greens and the groom’s had a mini sunflower to make it stand out a little from the rest of the guys.

Caitlin’s ring bearers were two different ages, so I used mini sunflowers with magnet backings to keep even their littlest ring bearer safe from pins!

I don’t have a whole lot more to say about the flowers, but I had to share these amazing golden hour photos with all of you!

Thanks again to Caitlin for sharing the photos from So.Jean Photography, for being responsive, collaborative and so joyful to work with!

White Silk Wedding Flowers with Greenery - Reveal and Review

Savannah contacted me last year to start the design process for her custom white silk wedding flower arrangements with greenery. She sent me a variety of inspiration photos, noting her favorites and included a request for some of her favorite flowers she wanted incorporated. She recently sent me some photos from her big day that I get to share with you! These amazing images were created by Leslie Duffy Photography.

Here’s our happy couple! Savannah’s bouquet was a modified cascade style bridal bouquet with a mix of white Peonies, Ranunculus, Cabbage Roses and Astrantia with Silver Dollar Eucalyptus and a touch of sage greenery. Her bouquet had a classic look that could work with any season and really any style. Savannah’s dress had lots of texture, so the bouquet design needed to match the elegance, but not take away from it! I mean, take a look at the back of that dress!

The bridesmaids carried loose, round, handtied style bouquets with the same mix of flowers and greenery.

I am so happy I went with Love is Blooming! I had a phenomenal experience—from working with Erin and receiving her timely emails, to ordering and paying, to receiving my flowers with tons of time before my wedding. Not to mention they were stunning and looked even better than the inspo photos I sent. This was so easy, stress free and cost effective. I highly recommend!

Jewel Tone and Woodland Theme Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

I’m so excited to share Sarah’s beautiful woodland themed silk wedding flowers that had bright pops of color and jewel tones throughout. These amazing images are from the very talented JLA Photography out of Virginia. Let’s take a look at this special wedding day!

Sarah and her groom’s venue had wood tones throughout so she really wanted everything to pop against the backdrop while also complementing the berry pink bridesmaid dresses. Her inspiration photos had various types of flowers and colors and once we narrowed down which colors we wanted to include, we came up with a really striking combination for her bouquet. Sarah’s whimsical woodland bouquet was a loose handtied style with navy Delphinium, berry Peonies and Dahlia, spice orange Ranunculus, eggplant Poppies, blue Clematis, white seeds, trailing greenery, twigs and bright pink Lotus flowers. The Lotus had special meaning to Sarah and because she chose silk wedding flowers, I could actually make this happen. In nature, Lotus flowers grow in water, so cutting them and placing in a bouquet would mean they would wilt rather quickly.

I stumbled upon the Love Is Blooming blog through a simple Google search and fell in love with the beautiful jewel tone creations by Erin. I knew I wanted something similar for my August 2022 wedding. Erin was extremely responsive, answering all my questions and providing thoughtful suggestions. She was able to stay within my budget and incorporated a woodland aesthetic to match our style. I enjoyed watching her creativity flow and she graciously included the personalizations I requested to make it one-of-a-kind.

The final result was a collection of flowers that had meaningful symbolism perfectly curated by Love Is Blooming. Similar flowers were used in the bouts, mother of the bride corsages and bridesmaid bouquets.
Magenta Peonies-love, honor, romance
Eggplant Poppies-consolation, remembrance
Spice Ranunculus-charm, having a crush
Navy Delphinium-cheerfulness & goodwill
Plum Dahlia-beauty, commitment, and kindness
Blue Clematis-ambition, aspiration
Pink Lotus- purity, rebirth, strength (my favorite flower and in honor of a dear therapy horse, Lotus, who passed in Dec. 2021)

Thank you, Erin, for the beautiful work!
— Sarah | Virginia

I just love the way those dresses pop against all the greenery!

The bridesmaid carried complementary but very different bouquets from Sarah. She had previously bought some really pretty pre-made bouquets but they needed a little something special. I was able to add in a few more flowers to dress them up to match. The bridesmaid bouquets were a mix of white and ivory peonies, roses and Dahlia. I found Tear Roses in a deep berry pink color that were a great match to the dresses. For a little more texture and color we also add in some pink Waxflower and finished with a little bit of Silver Dollar Eucalyptus.

Trying to figure out how to do a woodland theme without adding a Gnome to your bouquet? Silk flowers are the perfect way to find the right mix of flowers, be confident in the arrangements you’ll be carrying on your wedding day, and keep your budget in check.

Blush and White Destination Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

Back in July, I shared photos of a pretty little bridal bouquet I made for Heather. I needed to post an update once Heather sent me her professional photos because they are STUNNING! From her vintage inspired dress to the colorful back grounds, these photos are inspiring! The amazing images are by Andi Artigue .Let’s take a look at Heather’s silk flowers for a Vegas destination wedding!

Heather sent me inspiration photos that included roses, orchids and a few tropical accents. She originally wanted all white but decided to add in some blush for contrast. Her asymmetrical cascade bridal bouquet included white Phalaenopsis Orchids, white and nude pink Garden Roses, white Baby’s Breath and blush pink Anthurium. We planned for a smaller bouquet to accommodate her travel needs, but as you can see this bouquet was still high impact despite it’s smaller size.

So happy I found Love Is Blooming to create my custom silk bouquet!

Erin was great. She worked with my (many) inspo pictures to pick out all of the flowers and other elements that I wanted. She also helped me pick out the right size and shape since I would be flying with my bouquet and was worried about how to transport something more traditional.

She was super responsive and provided several updates to the status of my bouquet and asked for feedback before shipping (I didn’t have any as her creation was perfect and more than everything I envisioned).

Erin truly made something that could have been very stressful so easy and I would recommend her business to anyone!
— Heather | Texas

Heather’s dress was a beautiful lace number, so we matched that look with soft pink satin ribbon wrapped with lace and trailing lace tales. It goes with her dress so well!
