Burgundy and Blush Silk Wedding Flowers - Part 1

, , ,

Feel free to scroll down to see the bouquets, boutonnieres, and corsages because they are pretty great. But, please, take a minute and feast your eyes on this altar arrangement! This might be the biggest, baddest silk wedding flower arrangement I’ve ever done. It was almost 4 feet wide and over 2 feet tall, plus the custom garlands for both sides. This mix of burgundy Dahlia and Peonies, blush Roses and Peonies, white Dogwood and Roses, Lamb’s Ear and Eucalyptus was designing specifically for a fireplace mantel. And since I happen to have my very own fireplace mantel, I had the perfect place to model it!

So maybe you don’t have the need for a larger-than-life custom altar arrangement, but you are interested in custom silk wedding flowers and bouquets. These next photos should do the trick.

Peyton’s bridal bouquet was a modified cascade style with most of the flowers you see above in a soft, romantic look.

The bridesmaid bouquets had just a hint of blush and burgundy in a round handtied style.

The boutonnieres and corsages were a variety of burgundy, blush, white and greenery. You can see below that all your personal flowers come labeled, making it super easy for whomever is doing the distribution to get them pinned to the correct person.

Tropical Silk Bridal Bouquet Recreation & Review

, , , ,

Rounding out the end of Recreation Week is this stunner of a bouquet from a Mexico destination wedding. One of the great things about going somewhere is you get the benefit of all the special things of that location. In this case, this luscious tropical bouquet. What you give up is not being able to bring back your flowers to preserve. Kelsey’s bouquet had to be left behind, so she contacted me just a few days after getting home from her wedding to ask about having her bouquet recreated in silk wedding flowers. Take a look at the end product!

“I had Erin recreate my wife’s wedding bouquet as a birthday present. The end result was better than I could have ever expected. Her attention to detail was amazing, communication was constant, and shipping was ridiculously fast. I will definitely be recommending her to my buddies to them out of hot water with their wives.”

Peach, Pink, Blue and Yellow Silk Wedding Flowers - Part 2 Reveal & Review

, ,

There is so very little to say about these photos, except be sure and check out Caroline’s amazing photographer Taylor Sakata Photography and figure out how to hire her right now. Also, surround yourself with your closest friends, wear a dress you love, fix your hair up just right, look adoringly at your husband-to-be, and hold my flowers for at least few pictures before emailing them to me. So I’ve said enough, here are Caroline’s custom silk wedding flowers for her spring Georgia wedding.

“When I first started planning my wedding, I began searching Google for silk flower options. I had not heard of anyone who had gone this route, but I loved the idea of being able to keep my wedding bouquet forever. I was a little hesitant to order flowers online from someone in a different state, but I was immediately at ease after my first communication with Erin. She made each step of the process so easy and fun, and I appreciated that she always asked for my feedback and was willing to adjust to make my flowers perfect. They turned out better than I could have imagined! Not only was her pricing very reasonable, she also had my flowers done earlier than expected. It is so nice knowing that this aspect of my wedding planning is taken care of. I would recommend her over any flower shop any day. Erin’s customer service and quality of work are hard to beat.”
— Caroline | Georgia

Peach, Pink, Blue, and Yellow Silk Wedding Flowers - Part 1

, ,

I love a spring bridal bouquet in silk wedding flowers. This one was especially fun to design. Caroline gave me some creative leeway in designing her custom bouquets. She knew she wanted peach, pink, blue, and yellow then let me figure out the rest. I’m excited that later this week, I can share a few of her amazing photos!

The bridal bouquet was a round handtied style that was loose and whimsical. It incorporated peach Cabbage Roses and Poppies, pink Cosmos, blue Heather and yellow Billy Buttons. I suggested some Lamb’s Ear for a soft touch of “greenery” and Caroline was game. You can’t tell from the photos but this bouquet not only looked bouncy and light and fun, but it had some movement to it that made it even more real looking!

The bridesmaid bouquets were a similar mix of flowers, but I switched out the large Poppies for smaller ones to account for the smaller bouquet size.

The boutonnieres and corsages had the same mix of bright colors and interesting textures. Each one a little different from the other, but all matched the theme and color scheme of the bouquets.

Check back later this week to see our beautiful bride Caroline and her beautiful custom silk wedding flowers!

Silk Wedding Flowers for a Destination Wedding

, , ,

It’s been hot here in Minneapolis, so a tropical destination wedding seemed like a fitting blog post for this week! I don’t often get to do tropical themed wedding flowers, but this year I’ve done several. While most brides aren’t looking for over-the-top tropical themes, they do gravitate towards the bright colors and rich greenery that is often the backdrop for their wedding days. This is a great example of a hybrid silk bridal bouquet that incorporates some classic wedding flowers and colors along with brighter pops of color and that tropical foliage that is instantly recognizable and decidedly NOT Minnesotan greenery.

This bridal bouquet was a mix of pinks and whites, per the bride’s request. I used a variety of Peonies and Ranunculus, a few mauve Roses and some smaller seeds and Cosmos. The Palm branches and mini Monstera added some texture and shape to the bouquet so that it would look good in any environment, but especially a beach ceremony.

The bridesmaid bouquet was sized down and more round shaped than the bridal which was more of a modified cascade style. Both were wrapped in satin ribbon in the color Rosewater.

When Peonies are a main flower in the bouquets, I like to use Ranunculus for the boutonnieres and corsages. They have a similar shape and look as Peonies, but a much more appropriate size for being on a lapel or wrist.

The boutonnieres were custom matched to what the groom, groomsman, and ring bearers would be wearing. And since the ringbearers were her little boys, we had them coordinate with the groom’s boutonniere too. I added just a touch of greenery in the boutonnieres to that it all matched, in a sort of non-matchy way. The pin on style corsages were a mix of white and pink Peonies and greenery with a small spray of rhinestones for a little shine.

Planning a destination wedding but not sure what to do about flowers? Talk to me about your options for having that figured out before the plane lands…or even before you book your tickets for that matter!

Combining Inspiration Photos for the Perfect Silk Flower Bridal Bouquet

, , ,

I’m not going to let my head get too big here, but it’s pretty fun when I ask for inspiration photos and brides send me photos of my own work. In this case, the bride sent me photos of Haley’s champagne, ivory and gray silk wedding flowers and another more intricate bridal bouquet (recreation) and asked me to combine the two styles and designs into one romantic look. Challenge accepted!

This modified cascade style bridal bouquet incorporated a similar color scheme as the first bouquet with some of the same flowers and berries and some of the daintiness and smaller elements of the second bouquet.

The bouquet was made with blush centered Cabbage Roses, ivory Garden Roses, gray Berries, blush pink Calla Lilies, Silver Dollar Eucalyptus, blush Heather, Lamb’s Ear and some mixed greens tucked in. The ever popular Antique White ribbon finished off this classy bouquet with partially wrapped stems.

The groom’s boutonniere was a nice complement to the bridal bouquet with a single Calla Lily, blush Heather, gray berries, Lamb’s Ear and Silver Dollar Eucalyptus.

Though this was for a small wedding, she also wanted some cake flowers for her two tier cake. I designed three different flower clusters that would give her baker some flexibility in placement.

Whether your wedding is big or small, silk wedding flowers allow flexibility, are budget friendly and they are just so darn pretty! Fill out the Free Bride’s Checklist for a quote for your custom silk wedding flowers.

Navy, Burgundy and Bling Winter Silk Wedding Flowers- Part 1

, , ,

Over the last 18 months, I’ve worked with a record number of moms and sisters to design and create the perfect wedding flower bouquets for their daughter/sister. I love that picking out flowers has become a family event for so many! Tori’s silk flowers were a great example of the design process being completed second-hand, so to speak. Her mom, Tracey, was a great communicator and was quick to pass along Tori’s feedback of my design ideas and ultimately of the silk wedding flower arrangements themselves. Let’s take a look at what we designed together!

The bridal bouquet was a modified cascade style. At first glance you may be thinking, that’s clearly the tear drop style. And you are right! Sort of;) I designed this bouquet to look good from any angle so that if she wanted to hold it straight on, it would be a tear drop cascade. Or if she wanted to show off the rhinestone wrap on the handle, it could be held so that the cascade went to the side.

The design for her bouquet included deep hues of burgundy, navy, white and silver. I wanted to incorporate various textures for this winter wedding, keeping it soft, but interesting. I used burgundy Cabbage Roses, Calla Lilies, Amaranthus and Lamb’s Ear, navy Ranunculus, white Roses and Baby’s Breath along with gray Dusty Miller and dusty green Seeded Eucalyptus for her greenery. Tracey thought Tori would like some bling, so I sprinkled both small broaches and clear crystals throughout her bouquet.

The bridesmaids carried matching bouquets with the same mix of flowers, but in loose handtied style round bouquets. I even add just a * touch * of cascading Amaranthus to theirs to give it a little something different than a typical round style bridesmaid bouquet.

Check back later this week to see the reveal of Tori’s flowers!

Lavender, Eggplant, Blush and Ivory Silk Wedding Flowers and Centerpieces

, ,

January weddings are usually full of blues, whites, silvers and greens. But Mara’s colors were white, lavender, blush and navy. What we ended up with was a mix of plum, lavender, blush, pink and white with some softer greenery so that the silk bridal bouquets didn’t get too dark. Mara loved the look of the plum complementing the lavender, so we skipped the navy all together. Sometimes when you think you know what you want, a visual of something just slightly different makes more sense!

The bridal bouquet was a modified cascade style with white Dahlia, Ranunculus and Roses, lavender Roses, a blush Tea Rose, pink Ranunculus, plum Statice, blush Seedum, Lamb’s Ear and Seeded Eucalyptus. The asymmetrical style of the bouquet gave all the flowers a chance to shine while still giving a cascading swoop that we all know and love.

The bridesmaid bouquets had the same mix of flowers but in a round handtied style. I didn’t want their bouquets to get too round, so I had a few flowers sticking out from the bouquet and used the greenery to extend the shape of the bouquet beyond a sphere. It mimics the bridal bouquet pretty well, but without any cascading sections.

Mara’s mom had done all the designing and ordering with me to create custom arrangements. And having just gone through this whole process with her other daughter, she had a good eye for what Mara wanted and what worked for them and their budget. Silk wedding flower centerpieces are a great way to save money, as fresh flower centerpieces can be quite expensive. Here you can see the centerpieces we designed that incorporated many of the same flowers and colors as the bouquets but with bigger impact! Designed to sit on top of vases they had from the last wedding, these arrangements had plenty of fullness and were going to look fantastic floating above their guest tables.

Blush and Ivory Silk Wedding Flowers with Custom Dog Collar

, , ,

It’s fun (and flattering) when brides see one of my bouquets and use it as the inspiration photo for their own custom silk wedding flowers. We had talked through a few ideas, but when bride Tammy saw these bouquets, she knew what direction she wanted her designs to go.

Her colors were blush and ivory and she wanted to make sure the flowers didn’t get too pink but rather leaned towards the peach side of blush. I gave a few options, but I ended up experimenting with custom dyeing some flowers and we nailed it on the color. Take a look at the designs we came up with together.

The bridal bouquet was a modified cascade style with blush Cabbage Roses, ivory with blush center Dahlia, ivory Garden Roses, blush Heather and lots of Lamb’s Ear. Soft, romantic-all the things you want in a bridal bouquet!

The bridesmaid bouquets were a mix of the same flowers in a round handtied style with Antique White ribbon, the same color we used on the bridal bouquet. It’s one of my favorite colors because it goes with everything (including white) and is a classic, clean look that blends in with every style and will never look outdated.

The boutonnieres were a simple mix of ivory Roses and some blush accents with Lamb’s Ear.

This was a first for me: a custom floral dog collar! Her dog is actually much smaller than my dog, Hoover, so I needed to use smaller scale flowers that still looked similar to what was in the bouquet. This wired floral collar is a mix of ivory and peach Ranunculus because they are similar shape to Cabbage Roses. I also included a few bits of blush Heather and some small sprigs of Queen Anne’s Lace to go with the Lamb’s Ear. Cute, right?!

Custom Cake Flowers Reveal

Back in December, I shared a few photos with you of Brianna’s custom silk wedding cake flowers.

I was thrilled when Brianna sent me some photos from her wedding day of her amazing cake!

Her amazing wedding cake was created by Modern Pastry Shop in Hartford, Connecticut. (Anyone else automatically think of Gilmore Girls when they hear anything about Hartford??). If you are looking for a photographer out East, get in touch with Brianna’s photographer Xluzive. There is just so much talent in these photos!

“The flowers came out more beautiful than we imagined! They looked so realistic and came out perfect! Very accommodating to our requests!”

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.

*Actual* Valentine's Day Silk Wedding Flowers

, , ,

Earlier this week, I gave one example of Valentine’s Day silk wedding flowers. Today is another example with a similar color palette but a completely different style. Enjoy!

This round ball bridal bouquet was a mix of magenta Garden and Cabbage Roses and Calla Lilies, white Garden Roses and Peonies, dusty pink Mums, and few stems of Dendrobium Orchids. She wanted some pearls added in so I put together clusters of 3-5 larger scale pearls and placed them throughout the bouquet. Their accent color was silver, so that’s the color we went with on the handle of the bouquets.

She chose a mini bouquet for the flower girl and I used the same mix as the bridal bouquet, just much smaller.

This next photo shows a few of the “extras” she ordered. There were two cake clusters for her one layer wedding Cheesecake (yum!). These were designed to be different and could go on two opposite corners, one on top, one around the edge or wherever she wanted them to go. The bottom arrangement was a swag for her unity candle table. The great thing about this piece is that is can easily be picked up after the ceremony and used somewhere in the reception area; the food, gift, guestbook, or head table would all be great places for this matching custom silk wedding flower arrangement to decorate.

We kept the boutonnieres and corsages simple with white Roses and magenta accents with Lamb’s Ear for the boutonnieres and a fluffier white Ranunculus for the corsages. You’ll notice the differences are ever so slight between the boutonnieres, but they are enough to be able differentiate between the groom, groomsmen and father bouts. This bride wanted the mothers to have an option of pin or wrist corsage so she ordered one of each! I added a small spray of pearls for accent to match the bridal bouquet for a nice touch of shine.

*Almost* Valentine's Day Silk Wedding Flowers

, ,

You might think it’s weird to be talking about Valentine’s Day in May, but there’s Christmas in July, so why not? This week, I want to share with you two different sets of silk weddings flowers and bridal bouquets. Today, I’m sharing a wedding that was almost on Valentine’s Day (the 13th) and, a little later this week, one that was actually on Valentine’s Day. Both were pretty, both were unique, both incorporated those classic colors without being cliche’.

The bridal bouquet was a mix of Anemone, Cabbage Roses, Mums, Roses, Amaranthus, Queen Anne’s Lace, with some dusty greenery and Seeded Eucalyptus. This bouquet is a great example if you aren’t sure if you want a traditional tear drop cascade or a modified cascade. This one probably lands right between the two, though I don’t plan to make a third category of cascades. It has the element of a teardrop with a more defined linear shape, but not the tight composition that traditional teardrops usually have. But on the other hand, it doesn’t have quite the asymmetrical, branchier feel that a true modified cascade has. Perhaps this is the happy medium!

The matching groom’s boutonniere was a smaller Cabbage Rose in burgundy with a tiny bit of the blush accent and some dusty greenery. You can see that the stem was wrapped in burlap which matched the bridal bouquet. A cute complement!

Check back later this week to see another way to do Valentine’s Day wedding flowers that stay on theme, without being on theme if you know what I mean;)

Blue, White and Rosegold Silk Wedding Flowers with Pergola Arrangement

, , ,

Rachelle and I worked to come up with the perfect design for her 2021 winter wedding they were hosting in their beautiful Arizona backyard….record scratch…”Wait, winter 2021?! That hasn’t even happened yet Erin!” Here’s the skinny, Rachelle emailed me a few weeks after finalizing her design plan with some circumstances that expedited our timeline. So instead of a December wedding, we were now planning for an April wedding! But you know what, I didn’t even break out into one drop of sweat. I had the silk wedding flowers, and I was ready to go!

This intimate backyard wedding would be small, but Rachelle still wanted beautiful arrangements for their loved ones and for the amazing Pergola that would be the location of where they were going to exchange their vows. Take a look at her custom arrangements that feature blue, white, and rosegold in the designs!

The bridal bouquet was a combination of white Roses, white and blue Picasso Calla Lilies, navy Peonies, Dusty Miller, and some glittery rosegold twigs.

The Maid of Honor silk bouquet featured the same flowers, but a single navy Peony to bring the size down. I tied both bouquets off with a shimmery, sheer Champagne ribbon that looked amazing with the rosegold twigs.

Rachelle ordered just a few boutonnieres and corsages for the bridal party and parents. Everything matching in colors, flowers, and ribbon.

Remember that pergola I mentioned in the intro? Take a look at the show stopping altar arrangement pieces we designed together to go on the top corner and the opposite upright beam of the pergola. These swags incorporated all the same flowers on a base of mixed greens and Eucalyptus.

I know you didn’t ask for the moral of the story, but here it is: life throws you curve balls and silk flowers keep you in the batters box! And if sportsball isn’t your type of metaphor: if a major/minor life change results in wedding plans that have to change, don’t spend one minute worrying about whether you can still get the custom silk wedding flowers of your dreams, because the answer is YES!

Shades of Pink: Raspberry, Dusty Rose and Blush Silk Wedding Flowers

, ,

Sarah sent over several inspiration photos with her quote request. Most of them had all white/cream flowers with a hint of blush that would have been beautiful against her bridesmaids dusty blue gowns. But she couldn’t quite decide on a style until just the right inspiration photo came along. Instead of just a hint of blush we amped up the pink factor and included some raspberry, dusty rose, blush, and ivory with a variety of Eucalyptus in more of the dusty green and blue tones. Take a look at these custom silk wedding flowers!

The bouquets were all a round handtied style with the bridesmaid bouquets made as smaller versions of the bridal bouquet. They all included mini raspberry Cabbage Roses, dusty pink Curled Roses, ivory Garden Roses, blush Tea Roses, blush seeds, Seeded Eucalyptus, and Willow.

The boutonnieres incorporated her main colors and greenery and the pin on corsages were mainly ivory with hints of blush seeds.

If you have some inspiration photos but you haven’t quite landed on an exact design, send them my way and let’s talk about how to combine your favorite looks for a truly custom set of silk wedding flowers.

Succulents and Sunflowers in Silk Wedding Flowers

, , , ,

If sunflowers are your main squeeze, here’s another look for your wedding day! You may recognize this style from the original elopement bouquet I made for Katrina. It’s been one of my most popular bridal bouquets to date! You can see with these wedding flowers, we added on to the custom arrangements and included some cake flowers and some boutonnieres featuring the ever-popular succulents!

This cascading style bridal bouquet is on the verge of being a modified cascade. You can see the outline of the tear drop shape of a traditional cascading bouquet. But all that lush greenery give it’s a looser, more organic shape that works so well with the sunflowers.

We simplified the look for the bridesmaid bouquet to fit a loose round handtied style with just a single larger succulent, and few Sunflowers, Baby’s Breath and more of that lovely greenery.

Each of the boutonnieres was a different mini-Succulent with a bit of Baby’s Breath and Ecualyptus with matching Antique White Ribbon.

She wanted something really simple for her cake, so I used mini Sunflowers, Baby’s Breath and Eucalyptus for a cohesive look.
