Rust, Taupe, and Burgundy Fall Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal

, , ,

Remember when I shared Tiara’s wedding flowers with you a few weeks ago? Her wedding flowers prominently featured taupe in her color scheme along with burgundy. Here’s another beautiful wedding that incorporated taupe along with rust, peach, burgundy and ivory in this gorgeous outdoor wedding.

A huge thank you to Lisa Sherwood Photography for these breathtaking photos!

The bridal bouquet was a combination of rust Roses, apricot Roses, peach Cabbage Roses, burgundy Dahlia, taupe Roses and Orchids, sage Fern, Sword and Seeded Eucalyptus. Her bouquet was a full, moody, but lively round handtied style bridal bouquet.

Her altar was picture perfect, so we had just a few custom altar arrangements to complement that beautiful, natural backdrop for their day.

This fall wedding is a great example of another way to “do” fall flowers. We incorporated some of the favorite fall colors (burgundy and orange), but added some surprising elements like lots of texture and taupe flowers. If you are looking for a unique take on a seasonal look, silk wedding flowers might be just your thing! Fill out the Free Bride’s Checklist to share your ideas with me!

Fall Silk Wedding Flowers in the Mountains - Reveal and Review

, , ,

I am thrilled to be able to share Ally’s beautiful custom silk wedding flowers from her fall wedding near Mt. Hood, Washington. Not only is she stunning, but the backdrop for her wedding is to die for! Take a look at these amazing photos from Terra Lange Photography.

Ally’s bridal bouquet was a modified cascade style with a mix of yellow Peonies, burgundy Peonies, orange Dahlia, orange Cosmos, burgundy berries, sage Fern, twigs, Seeded Eucalyptus, Cynara pods and Magnolia greenery. It was textured and lush and full and perfect for an outdoor wedding.

One of the things I loved about working with Ally is that every idea she had was well thought out. Her bridesmaids were wearing these glamorous velvet-y dresses in 3 different jewel tones, and she wanted simple hoop bouquets to complement them. We choose just a few of the flowers and greens for the gold metal hoop bouquets for a modern but classy take on bridesmaid bouquets.

Not to be left out, her flower girls each carried smaller versions of the hoop bouquets

“I was looking for flowers that looked real, and would last forever as I wanted to use them in my home after the wedding. I’m so glad I found love is blooming. They came out absolutely beautifully! She helped me pick flowers and greenery based of my limited knowledge and color scheme. She was very easy to work with and responsive and was also very kind and patient with me. The shipping was timely and the finished product was exactly what I was hoping for. I would definitely hire again.”
— Ally | Washington

Ally used a combination of custom silk wedding altar pieces for her unique round altar and fresh fall flowers and pumpkins. The draped fabric added such texture and softness!

Thanks again to Ally for sharing these magical, mountain view wedding photos. Do you have a beautiful location that needs flowers that complement it? Fill out the Free Bride’s Checklist today!

Green and White Winter Wedding - Reveal and Review

, , ,

Today, I get to share bride Melisa’s green and white winter wedding flowers. She lives in my neck of the woods which made it extra fun. I work with brides all over the country, so when I get a local bride, it’s extra special because I get to meet them in person when they pick up their flowers!

(“Wait, I don’t get to see my flowers beforehand?” Fear not, happy bride, you do! I send photos during the production process so you get to see how they are coming along. That way, when you pick them up, or open your box, there are no surprises…of the bad kind anyways.)

Back to Melisa’s flowers! These amazing photos are by the very talented Eric Vest Photography. If you are a Twin Cities resident, check him out for your upcoming wedding!

Here is our beautiful bride Melisa. And brave might I add for taking outdoor photos during a Minnesota winter! Her round handtied bridal bouquet was a mix of Roses, Ranunculus, Dusty Miller and Boxwood greens. It was simple, elegant, and gave winter vibes without being too on-the-nose.

The groom’s boutonniere was a Ranunculus, greens and Dusty Miller.

“Erin was super easy to work with. I felt a lot of relief knowing that I’d get to see the flowers along the way, although Erin was amazing at understanding my vision and I didn’t need any revisions! I would highly recommend her, everything turned out better than imagined and pricing was very reasonable!”
— Melisa | Minnesota

We kept things cohesive with the bridal party and made smaller versions of the bridal bouquet for the bridesmaids to carry and stuck with a Ranunculus and greens for the groomsmen. Slight differences set apart the bridal bouquet and groom’s boutonniere, but sometimes that’s all you need!

I love the way Melisa is looking at her new husband!

Melisa’s friend had gotten married at this venue not long before her, so she knew what décor would look good there. She helped me design this 90” long garland for the mantel of the fireplace. It incorporated the same Boxwood greenery along with a mix of white Garden and Spray Roses.

The venue provided simple vases for centerpieces and Melisa had another great idea to do a simple ring of greenery and roses to tie it all together. It was a great way to brighten up the tables without taking anything away from the romantic glow of the candles.

One of the things I always recommend to brides who need to stretch their décor: purchase vases that your bouquets can just drop into and use them at the head table (like Melisa did) or around your reception area. Some other great places to have your bouquets do double duty are the cake table, gift table, cocktail tables, or if you have a smaller amount of guests, use them as your centerpieces!

Thanks again to Eric Vest Photography for his excellent work. If you have a winter wedding but aren’t into some of the more traditional accents, let’s talk about how to make it happen. Fill out the Free Bride’s Checklist today!

Moody Purple Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

, , ,

Last week I showed you Felicia’s beautiful wedding flowers in multiple shades of purple. This week I get to share with you Morgan’s moody purple silk wedding flowers. Let’s take a look at some photos from Ivy and Ink Photography from her lovely wedding day!

Morgan’s cascading bridal bouquet was a mix of white Garden Roses, lavender Garden Roses, plum Tea Roses, purple Heather, and Lamb’s Ear.

The bridesmaids carried the same mix of flowers in round handtied style bridesmaid bouquets. I was so pleased that the plum tea Roses matched their dresses to perfectly!

“I got so many compliments on the flowers for the wedding! I can’t thank you enough for them!”
— Morgan | Missouri

Morgan wanted matching centerpieces but didn’t want to budget for full finished arrangements. She had the great idea to buy bulk amounts of Roses and Baby’s Breath to make her own centerpieces. They added the perfect amount of floral touch to her reception and she did a great job arranging them herself!

I wanted to share Morgan’s cake with you as a great example of how to add just a touch of florals to your cake, without going over board. The rustic look of her cake and cake stand, along with that custom topper IS the feature. Adding a big floral piece really would have taken away from those unique elements. I think this was a great decision to add just a few flowers around the base of the cake to incorporate the them and colors without it being all about the flowers.

Here’s one last breathtaking shot of Morgan from the talented Ivy and Ink Photography.

Multiple Shades of Purple in Silk Wedding Flowers- Reveal and Review

, , ,
silk-wedding-flowers-bridal-bouquet-purple

I get to share a few photos from another one of my amazing brides, Felicia! She wanted multiple shades of purple flowers in all her arrangements. We worked closely together to find just the right ones, including: dusty lavender Peonies, plum Tea Roses, bright lavender Ranunculus, Wisteria Ranunculus, and lavender Heather. She loved the idea of some mixed greenery, so I included Seeded Eucalyptus and Lamb’s Ear and then she added a touch of Baby’s Breath for a classy and happy round style bridal bouquet.

silk-wedding-flowers-bridal-bouquet-purple

Felicia opted to have wrist corsages for each of bridesmaids and I loved that idea. Seeing their beautiful dresses, with all the purple lace, I think it was a great way to allow their dresses to take center stage while still incorporating some small floral elements to match the bridal bouquet.

Felicia also ordered two custom altar arrangements to go on her amazing arbor. Is this not an impressive venue??

“Erin did an amazing job on my flowers for my wedding day! I love how they turned out. I didn’t have much of an idea to go off of when we started designing my bouquet, I just knew my colors and Erin created such a beautiful bouquet for me. She made beautiful corsages for my bridal party and the boutonnieres were made perfectly as well. She was always so sweet and responded to all my emails and any concerns I had didn’t seem like it was an issue. She had the right answers for me every time. I love, love, love my bouquet and I definitely would recommend her to anyone.”

Lavender, Blush and Dusty Blue Silk Wedding Flowers-Reveal and Review

, , ,

I’ve known Lexi and her family for about 18 years and my husband’s family has known them even longer. I felt incredibly honored to be asked to do silk wedding flowers and her bridal bouquet for her and Austin’s August wedding. Their color scheme was lavender, blush, dusty blue and ivory with pops of greenery. I went a little overboard with sharing their photos, but you’ll see really quickly why. These amazing images, provided by Cameron and Tia, were so fun to scroll through! Check them out if you are in the Minneapolis area!

Here’s our lovely couple Lexi and Austin, and they are clearly in love!

Lexi’s bridal bouquet was a mix of lavender Cabbage Roses, blush Peonies, purple Lilac, Baby’s Breath, ivory Roses, Lavender greenery, dusty blue Thistle and Eucalyptus in a teardrop cascade style bouquet. This bouquet was extra special because Lexi was able to give me a piece from her Mom’s and Grandma’s wedding dresses to wrap the handle of her bouquet.

The bridesmaid bouquets were round handtied style with the same flowers as the bridal bouquet. Lexi also ordered some small, loose flowers for her stylist to put in, the day of the wedding.

The wedding and reception took place at Hidden Meadow and Barn in Pepin, Wisconsin. The ceremony site had this amazing and huge arch. I created 2 large swags and a smaller piece to match the scale of the structure.

“Erin was so amazing to work with! I had no idea what I was doing, but she made sure I had all the details necessary for my wedding flowers to make my wedding absolutely beautiful! She had great communication throughout the entire wedding planning process and listened to any feedback I had about my flowers to make sure they were exactly what I wanted. Thank you Erin!”
— Alexi | Wisconsin

The arch pieces did double-duty the day of the wedding and after the ceremony were moved to the reception area to decorate this beautiful fireplace.

Lexi didn’t shy away from a little DIY project. She sourced the garlands and vases for the tables and ordered loose stems from me so the whole look was cohesive.

I love this shot of their elegant cake with a custom topper. For this design, Lexi ordered loose flowers to be placed on the cake by the baker. I handed them over to, none other than my Mother-in-Law, designer and baker of this delicious and beautiful wedding cake. If you are in the Minneapolis area, be sure and check out Cakes For Your Occasions. Trust me when I say that every flavor and frosting is delicious, because you know I’ve tried them all;)

Lavender and White Silk Wedding Flowers with Bling- Review and Reveal

, , ,

You might remember Emily’s beautiful lavender and white silk wedding flowers from a post a few months ago. I was so happy when she sent me some of the beautiful images from her wedding day. These images were captured by Carson Stivason Studios, check her out on Facebook (@carsonstivasonstudios) or on Instagram (@carson.stivason).

Now that I see Emily’s dress, I can totally understand why she wanted some eye-catching bling in her bouquet. With all those beautiful jewel details, the bouquet has to live up to that amazing dress!

“I am extremely happy with the way my flowers turned out. When I was looking for flowers for my wedding, I was having trouble finding some that I like because I can be pretty picky. I am also a college student, so I don’t have a lot of money to spend on my wedding. I’m so glad I found this company! Not only were the prices fair, bur she also worked very closely with me to help me customize my flowers. I’m legally blind, so details can be a little hard for me to work with. I trusted her completely to put together a beautiful arrangement using my colors, and I am very happy with how they turned out. The communication was amazing as well. Not only did I receive pictures throughout the process, but also received quick replies when I reached out. When I physically received the flowers in the mail, I was so impressed by the texture. The flowers seemed so real, which is something I really wanted for my bouquet. Additionally, they were packaged very carefully and neatly. I would highly encourage anyone who is looking for beautiful flowers at a fairly cheap price to order from here!”

Tropical Wedding and Silk Flower Bouquet Reveal!

, , ,

I love being able to do reveals, and this one is so amazing! Ali had a clear vision for her tropical themed silk wedding flowers. She wanted to incorporate the colors of coral, peach, and white and also lots of lush greenery. I found some great options for her in Calla Lilies, Peonies, Orchids, Palm and Monstera Leaves and even some tiny coral Succulents for her bouquet.

Take a look at these fantastic images from Erin Schaal, a very talented photographer out of Richmond, Virginia! You can find her on Instagram @erinnschaal, check her out!

Ali was such a stunning bride!

Browsing through Ali’s gallery, I noticed so many photos of her looking adoringly at her new husband. I love it!

I love that Ali’s bridesmaids all wore different styles and colors of dresses. It looks so good!

This wedding is a great example of a unique and easy DIY for table decor. Ali purchased individual Monstera and Palm leaves in bulk through me. Then she simply laid them on her tables at the reception site. It gives big impact without the cost of individual finished centerpieces.

Ali also purchased loose flowers and greens for her baker to place on the cake. It’s simple and stunning!

Jewel Toned Summer Silk Wedding Flowers- Review and Reveal

, , ,

I love, love, loved doing these wedding flowers! Bride Catherine gave me her color palette and her permission to get creative with her bouquets, and her arrangements turned out stunning. These jewel toned summer silk wedding flowers were a mix of moody and bright colors with texture and greens for a unique look that worked for her summer wedding.

A huge thanks to these amazing images from their photographer Precious Pics!

Catherine’s handtied style round bridal bouquet was a mix of plum Tea Roses, navy Delphinium, yellow Ranunculus, orange Hydrangea, plum Poppies, orange Ranunculus, burgundy Roses, dusty pink Peonies, Blueberries and mixed greenery.

The bridesmaids carried clutch size bouquets with just a few of the flowers from the bridal bouquet, but in the same loose handtied style. All the bouquets were finished off with burlap wrap on the stems.

“I can’t say enough positive things about Love is Blooming. I had always loved the idea of a bold, jewel tone colored bouquet. However the quotes from local florists were wayyy out of our budget. I had almost given up when I came across Love is is Blooming. Erin was very responsive and did such good job listening to what I wanted while also adding in her own experience. The end result was exactly what I had been looking for at a fraction of the cost of a florist. She was even able to create a matching dog collar! I loved that I was able to get picture updates and make any adjustments before getting them and it was one less thing to have to worry about on the big day! Everyone, both guests and venue staff, at the wedding were shocked when they realized they were fake flowers as no one could tell until they were up close. Plus, my bridesmaids were so happy to be able to keep their flowers after the wedding. I am so incredibly grateful and highly recommend Love is Blooming to anyone looking for wedding flowers.”
— Catherine | Maryland

The groom’s boutonniere was a burgundy Rose, yellow Ranunculus, a bit of Hydrangea, Blueberries and matching greenery with a twine wrap on the stems.

Catherine had a lot of loved ones surrounding her on her big day and they all had a custom silk flower wedding arrangement. Even her precious pup got a custom silk flower dog collar to wear during the celebration.

Are jewel tones your jam? Love the moodier colors but getting married in the spring or summer? Let’s talk!

Red and Ivory Silk Bridal Bouquet Recreation

, , ,

Becky contacted me about recreating her beautiful bridal bouquet of ivory Tulips, Baby’s Breath and baby red Roses. This full and luscious bouquet had a lot of greenery and was quite large. The best part about this kind of work is that I can customize your recreation any way you want! Becky wanted to display it in her living room in a vase next to one of their wedding photographs. I came up with a plan to reduce the overall size of the bouquet but only by a small amount so that it wasn’t too large for what she had in mind.

Photos of the original bouquet are by the very talented Brian Anthony Photography. Check him out if you are in the Greensboro area!

“My bouquet is absolutely beautiful. Having the recreation takes the sting away that the beautiful flowers I had on my wedding day are long gone. I highly recommend Erin to recreate your bouquet!”
— Becky | North Carolina
custom-bridal-bouquet-recreation-wedding-flowers-anniversary-gift

One of the things Becky loved about her bouquet was the ivory ribbon wrap and the long tails. Since she is displaying this on a table top, I cut them a bit shorter than the original, but kept the same notched detail on the ends of the tails. It looks so classy!

Inspiration Photos and Silk Wedding Flowers

, , ,

Kendra is a local bride who reached out to me to bring her dream bouquet to life. She sent me an inspiration photo of a big, bold, beautiful bouquet. In her attempt to have a recreation made of the bouquet, she had found a seller on Etsy who said she was able to recreate the look. Unfortunately, the bouquet was undersized, the colors and greenery were off, and she just didn’t love it. Kendra had also talked to the actual florist of her inspiration bouquet who was willing to come do her flowers, but it was going to cost her thousands of dollars to fly her here and cover her accommodations, car rental, material and time.

And then she found me :) I sent her some flower and greenery options, we talked through the shape of the silk bouquet, I custom dyed some Dahlias to be just the right shade of burgundy, and what we came up with together was…well I’ll let her tell you in her own words:

“HIGHLY recommend Love is Blooming! I had attempted to work with two different florists to recreate a bouquet from a picture I found on Pinterest, that I absolutely loved! Neither were able to create anything even remotely similar to the picture, and I thought I was going to have to give up on my vision. But then I found Erin at Love is Blooming, and she went above and beyond to create a gorgeous bouquet for myself, as well as beautiful matching bouquets for my bridal party! She provided great communication throughout her entire creation process and I couldn’t be happier with how they all turned out!”
— Kendra | Minnesota

Kendra’s bridal bouquet was a very lush mix of white Roses, large burgundy Dahlia, dusty blue Thistle, Fern, Heart Eucalyptus, Seeded Eucalypts and Ruscus in a modified cascade style bouquet. We finished it off with some burlap to complement the rustic style of their wedding.

The bridesmaid bouquets and junior bridesmaid bouquet were a mix of all the same flowers and greens but in smaller handtied style bouquets.

I’m always so grateful when brides trust me to design their custom silk wedding flowers. I loved these bouquets a little more than usual because I knew how much they meant to Kendra.

Silk Bridesmaid Bouquets in White and Blush

,

These cute little clutch bridesmaid bouquets came from a local bride who was keeping things simple. She was doing a fresh flower bouquet for herself, but wanted silk bridesmaid bouquets. She sent me inspiration photo, I sent some suggestions back to her and VOILA!

Her colors were white and blush, so used a single blush rose and white roses along with some Seeded and Silver Dollar Eucalyptus. Her original inspiration photo didn’t have it, but I thought they needed a little texture so had suggested some smaller mixed greens and blush seeds to give it depth and interest.

Dusty Rose, Cream and Green Silk Wedding Flowers- Part 1

, , ,

Dusty Rose might be the star of 2021 for bridal bouquets. It’s one of those colors that is soft, romantic, and a little out of the ordinary so it really stands out! Kourtney’s flowers are a great example of incorporating dusty rose into your silk wedding flowers as an accent and feature.

Kourtney’s bridal bouquet was a mix of custom dyed Roses in dusty Rose, ivory Garden Roses, ivory Cabbage Roses, white seeds, Fern and lots of Eucalyptus in a modified cascade style. Big and beautiful, this bouquet was a show-stopper!

The bridesmaid dresses were a shade of dusty rose, so Kourtney requested that their bouquets be a mix of cream and green. These simple style bouquets would allow Kourtney’s bouquet to stand out even more and for the bridesmaid dresses to be a great accent to the bridal bouquet as well. The flower girls had their own sweet mini bouquets of a single cabbage Rose and greenery.

Kourtney included a few custom honorary arrangements to honor family members who had passed away. These bouquet style arrangements are designed to be able to drop into vases that Kourtney purchased on her own. I wrapped them with a green ribbon so that if the vases were clear, the ribbon would blend in nicely with the stems.

The boutonnieres and corsages were a mix of cream flowers and a few dusty rose colored flowers mixed in. But all were simple and classic styles. These photos are to show how all the personal flowers come labeled, so that whoever is handing them out or doing the pinning knows who they are for.

Royal Purple, Wisteria and White Silk Wedding Flowers - Part 1

, , ,

I’ve been talking about purple flowers for quite a few years. Mainly, how there are so many shades! This wedding is a great example of incorporating multiple shades of purples in the same silk bridal bouquet!

Paige’s wedding theme was a royal purple, plum and hints of Wisteria. I showed her a variety of options of flowers and colors and we narrowed it down to royal purple Roses, Wisteria Ranunculus, Picasso Calla Lilies, White Roses, and purple Hydrangea. The bridal bouquet was a more traditional tear drop shape with royal purple ribbon to match the groom’s suit.

This bridesmaids carried round style bouquets with a mix of the same flowers. The maid of honor had a few more flowers in her bouquet and had a wisteria ribbon wrap to stand out a little.

Paige also needed a few extra arrangements to complete her wedding decor including a toss bouquet. This clutch style bouquet incorporated the same flowers and we added some ribbon tails.

The cake flowers were three clusters of royal purple roses, and purple Hydrangea. Simple, but classy!

Paige had a custom welcome sign for the entrance to their venue that she wanted a small swag for. She sent me an inspiration photo and I created a custom piece that matched the bouquets, but would sit nicely on the corner of the sign.

Erin was professional, prompt in her communication, and went above and beyond in providing flower and accent recommendations to align with our color scheme.

Black, White and Blush Silk Wedding Flowers- Part 1

, ,

Angela was the sweetest bride to work with! She knew her color scheme and had a few flower suggestions, but she really let me make some creative suggestions and gave me the freedom in designing her bridal bouquet. Her custom silk wedding flowers and bouquets were so soft and romantic and dreamy and I can’t wait to share them with you!

Angela’s loose round handtied style bridal bouquet was a mix of blush pink Peonies, garden Roses, dusty blush pink Anemone, Skimmia berries, white seeds and some mixed greenery. Black can be a touch color to incorporate in the bouquets themselves, so I was excited that she liked my suggestions to bring that into the bouquets with the Skimmia and the Anemone.

The bridesmaid bouquets had a similar composition to the bridal bouquet, only smaller.

The boutonnieres and corsages used a mix of the flowers, colors and greenery for simple, but classically styled personal flowers.

Last is the cake topper! This cutie could be viewed from any side and feature some of the same flowers as the other arrangements, but in a small cluster for the top layer of her cake.

I’m excited to show you photos of this sweet client and her beautiful wedding day later this week. Check back in a few days to see the reveal and hear what Angela had to say about designing and ordering her custom silk wedding flowers.

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.

custom-silk-wedding-flowers-bridal-bouquet-sunflowers-altar-arrangements

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.

If you need decor for all aspects of your wedding day, and want a cohesive look, silk flowers are a great option. You get to help design the arrangements, see them in progress and have them ahead of schedule. If that appeals to you, contact me today about your wedding needs!

Lavender, White and Silver Silk Wedding Flowers with Bling

, , ,

If you are looking for some silk wedding flowers and bouquets with a touch of bling, these are the photos for you! Emily’s color palette of lavender, white and silver were easy enough to work with, but I wanted to add a little extra ‘Oomph’ to her arrangements with some bling. Rather than just a few rhinestones here and there, I wanted it to be a statement. Take a look at what we designed together!

The bridal bouquet was a mix of lavender Roses, white Tulips, Baby’s Breath, and a little brighter lavender Spray Roses.

To give it a little more dimension, I add in some glittery, blingy branches to add texture, height and take it to the next level!

The bridesmaid bouquet was the same mix of flowers, but smaller and without the bling.

“I am extremely happy with the way my flowers turned out. When I was looking for flowers for my wedding, I was having trouble finding some that I like because I can be pretty picky. I am also a college student, so I don’t have a lot of money to spend on my wedding. I’m so glad I found this company! Not only were the prices fair, bur she also worked very closely with me to help me customize my flowers. I’m legally blind, so details can be a little hard for me to work with. I trusted her completely to put together a beautiful arrangement using my colors, and I am very happy with how they turned out. The communication was amazing as well. Not only did I receive pictures throughout the process, but also received quick replies when I reached out. When I physically received the flowers in the mail, I was so impressed by the texture. The flowers seemed so real, which is something I really wanted for my bouquet. Additionally, they were packaged very carefully and neatly. I would highly encourage anyone who is looking for beautiful flowers at a fairly cheap price to order from here!”

There were two boutonnieres, the groom and groomsman where I incorporated a small piece of the glitter branch in the groom’s to match the bridal bouquet.

Emily also wanted a few clusters of flowers on ribbon loops for her aisle arrangements. These are a great, and cost effective way to tie all your looks together, add a little more to your decor, but not break the budget.
