Modified Cascade Silk Bridal Bouquet Review

One of my favorite all time silk bridal bouquets was Lexi’s Whimsical modified cascade style bridal bouquet. It was big, bold, interesting, colorful, textural, romantic…seriously, I could go on and on about it! So when Lexi sent me some photos from her wedding day, I was so excited to share them with you! Be sure and check out their photographer, Korey J. Smith Cinematography, if you are looking for a highly talented photographer in Utah.

Wedding flowers don’t often get the consideration of scale. But can you imagine if Lexi’s bouquet had been any smaller? The enormity of the architecture around this gorgeous couple would have made a smaller bouquet disappear!

What magazine should this appear in first?? It’s a piece of art!

“Working with Erin was my favorite experience in planning my wedding. I had found this picture on pinterest and kept coming back to it. I knew there was no way to recreate what I saw in this picture, or so I thought. When I showed the picture to Erin she was confident we could create it. It was so much fun, designing and creating this bouquet. With being out of state and working fully online with her, I was so impressed with how quick her turn around was. She literally found the most beautiful flowers I could have ever picked to create this dream bouquet! When she sent me images of the final product, I could not wait! When everything arrived, I was even more impressed with Erin and her work. Having everything shipped across the country also was so easy. I could tell when everything arrived, that she took such great care in creating my wedding bouquet as well as all of the other flowers I had purchased for the wedding. The day of our wedding was perfect, what was the best part was holding this beautiful bouquet of flowers! Having a summer wedding, the worry of your flowers not making it can be stressful. However, with Erin’s silk bouquet I did not have to worry! I was just able to stand tall and beautiful grinning ear to ear with the man I love and the most gorgeous flowers I have ever seen!

Still almost a year later my flowers look immaculate! I am so happy I found Erin and Love is Blooming to make the most perfect wedding bouquet for my most perfect day! ”
— Lexi | Utah

I love seeing action shots of the flowers and aren’t these flower girls the cutest?!

These portraits of the couple are just so good!

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!

Chianti Custom Silk Wedding Flowers

, ,

Every once in a while a color comes along and despite my 15 years in the business, I have to Google it:) I’m not afraid to admit it, but Chianti was one of those colors. I was so glad to see it on my screen because it’s a gorgeous, moody, dusty, saturated pink.

I went looking for the perfect rose for Caitlyn’s bridal bouquet in silk wedding flowers where she wanted to include a hint of Chianti to accent the blush pink, ivory and greenery. Her cascading style bridal bouquet in silk flowers includes Ranunculus, Roses, Peonies, Lamb’s Ear, Silver Dollar Eucalyptus and ivory Heather. It’s such a soft and romantic looking bouquet! I tied it off with the ever popular Antique White satin ribbon for a beautiful wedding day bouquet.

Caitlyn liked the idea of the bridesmaids carrying not only a different style bouquet but also a different combination of flowers. Each bridesmaid would carry the same blush Rose from the bridal bouquet but they would be surrounded by Baby’s Breath and Lamb’s Ear.

Boutonnieres and corsages were easy to design since her main flowers are great sizes for them. The groom and groomsmen wore the blush pink Roses and the dads wore Ranunculus. The mothers’ wrist corsages matched the fathers’ with some Baby’s Breath, blush accent and rhinestones for a little sparkle.

Blending Themes Within a Wedding- Rustic and Tropical Silk Wedding Flowers

, , ,

After 16 years of marriage, I can say with certainty that marriage takes a lot of blending of ideas, plans, and opinions. Sometimes we don’t realize that it actually starts long before you say, “I do.” So when you sit down together to talk about the vision for your wedding day, don’t be surprised if you both have different ideas. But don’t panic! Blending themes within a wedding isn’t as hard as it sounds! These silk wedding flowers are a great example of taking two different ideas and incorporating them into custom arrangements that fit the bride and groom.

Josie wanted a mix of Lilies and Calla Lilies and had some bright and fun colors as well. Her teal, orange and purple theme colors would be used in their centerpieces and she wanted to incorporate them in her ceremony flowers as well. The bridal bouquet was a mix of white Garden Lilies, ivory Calla Lilies, orange and purple Dendrobium Orchids and teal mini Phalaenopsis orchids. Her summer-y bouquet was a combination of all the inspiration photos she sent me. Though this bouquet looks quite tropical, Josie wanted to include a rustic element. Twine is a great way to accent any bouquet that you want to look a little more organic and rustic.

For the bridesmaid bouquets, we used the same variety of flowers, but in a handtied style. With their bouquets, the twine was a little more front and center, but still kept everything on theme.

For the toss bouquet, I scaled everything back, including using a different orange flower that fit the overall size of the bouquet much better.

The pin on corsages were all similar, with subtle differences to set apart the mothers, grandmothers and attendants. Again, the twine was a fun way to keep these bright and happy corsages a little more earthy.

Josie and her groom did a great job personalizing their flowers. One way they did this was to send me spent shotgun shells and turkey feathers for their boutonnieres. These accessories were a fun way to give a nod to the family’s hunting hobby. If you’ve been around my blog long enough, you may remember the last time I did some custom boutonnieres with shotgun shells.

Groom’s and Groomsman’s Boutonniere

Even the littlest bridal party member wasn’t left out. The ring bearer boutonniere might have been too small for a shotgun shell, but it wasn’t too small for a turkey feather!

Blending bright flowers with rustic accents isn’t a new idea. In fact I did it once before for Tracy’s Rustic Barn Wedding Flowers. Maybe you have a few ideas that you aren’t sure how to combine to make your wedding day truly unique. That’s where I come in!

Custom Silk Flower Arrangement for Special Occasions

There are quite a few reasons why fresh flowers may not be an option. Wanda contacted me about a family member she wanted to send flowers to who was going through cancer treatment. She wasn’t able to be around fresh flowers, so Wanda though silk flowers would be a great option, and she was right. She gave me a few parameters and her budget and I got to work designing a custom arrangement for her.

Wanda enjoyed the simple process so much that a few weeks later she placed an order for a graduation gift that would double as dorm room decor and a sympathy arrangement to be delivered after a funeral.

This graduation arrangement would need to be bright and fun for a young lady heading off to college. I used corals, pinks and a touch of yellow. Wanda requested some pinks and Baby’s Breath, so I was sure to include those elements. The geometric accent vase makes for a floral arrangement that is both modern and feminine.

A sympathy arrangement can be bright and striking, but for something that stays in the home, a more subtle look seemed appropriate. I used a blend of mauve, pink, and ivory flowers with greenery in a more classically styled vase for an arrangement meant to be a sweet reminder of a loved one lost.

This last arrangement was a recent order from Wanda for her Great Aunt who needed a little cheering up in her care facility. With all of the restrictions happening, Wanda wanted a bright spot in her Great Aunt’s room. A custom silk flower arrangement is a great way to do just that!

Peony Silk Wedding Flowers and Bridal Bouquet

, ,

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Custom Wedding Flowers to Complement Wisteria Bridesmaid Dresses

, , ,

This is my fourth wedding in the last 9 months where Wisteria was the main wedding color. When bridesmaids are wearing Wisteria dresses, you want colors that complement them without being too matchy-matchy. Rachel’s wedding flowers were a fun challenge because she wanted to incorporate some mauve and blush pink for a soft romantic look. We decided her silk bridal bouquet was the perfect place for that.

This modified cascading bridal bouquet had ivory Roses, ivory Dahlia, ivory Ranunculus, mauve Roses, blush pink Tulips, blush pink Seedum, plum Heather, Fern, Smilax and Ivy with Antique White satin ribbon.

The bridesmaid bouquets were quite a bit different from the bridal bouquet. The base of the bouquet was Hydrangea for a nice full look, a single ivory Dahlia, cream mini Tulips with a collar of plum Heather and Smilax. They were finished off with Antique White ribbon.

The toss bouquet was a mix between both styles of bouquets with ivory Roses and Hydrangea, mauve Roses, plum Heather, Smilax and a touch of Fern. I added the Antique White ribbon and some tails because they look good flying through the air.

Customizing Silk Wedding Flowers from and Inspiration Photos

, ,

Usually bride’s who contact me have an idea of what they like, as was the case with Kim. She was interested in a silk bridal bouquet with ivory Roses, Baby’s Breath and pink carnations with some bling. I sent her the link to this bouquet to give her an example of the bling I could do and she ended up loving the bouquet itself! We adjusted the colors a bit so that her bouquet was mainly ivory and blush pink and gave the big pops of pink to the bridesmaids who would be wearing black dresses.

Peonies in ivory and blush pink with ivory Roses, Silver Dollar Eucalyptus, Antique White Satin ribbon and rhinestone wrap on the handle.

The bridesmaid bouquets were a mix of ivory Roses, fuchsia, bright pink and blush pink Peonies, Silver Dollar Eucalyptus with Azalea colored satin ribbon.

Kim wanted a custom piece for her altar. I created this swag to lay on the table at the front of her ceremony site. I incorporated mixed greens, Silver Dollar Eucalyptus, ivory Roses and Peonies, and blush pink, fuchsia and bright pink peonies.

The boutonnieres were a combination of flowers and colors for a cohesive look. The groom’s bout was an ivory Rose bud, with blush pink accent, bright pink mini Peony, a sprig of Eucalyptus and antique white ribbon to match the bridal bouquet. Kim also wanted the groom’s bout to have a tiny bit of bling so I lined the top and the bottom of the stem with a thin strip of rhinestones. The groomsmen bouts were an ivory rose, mini Peony, Eucalyptus and the same color ribbon as the bridesmaid bouquets. We kept the fathers’ boutonnieres simple with an ivory Rose bud, sprig of Eucalyptus and blush pink ribbon.

The two mothers’ corsages were wrist style with spray Roses, mini Peonies, blush accent, Eucalyptus, a small spray of rhinestones and blush pink ribbon.

Burgundy Silk Wedding Flowers with a Twist

, , ,

When Candace booked her wedding with me in February, she had a pretty good idea of what she wanted for her custom silk wedding flowers and a bridal bouquet. The inspiration photos had creamy Roses, peach and burgundy accents and lots of greenery and texture. They were moody and romantic and a little bit boho—perfect for an October wedding! Once I started working on her arrangements, she felt like it was missing a little pop of color, so we incorporated a touch of golden orange that gave the bouquets that perfect little twist of brightness. Take a look at Candace’s awesome custom silk wedding bouquets for fall.

The bridal bouquet incorporated cream Roses, peach Roses, apricot Garden Roses, ivory Spray Roses, burgundy Dahlia, orange gold Mums, Seeded Eucalyptus, Magnolia leaves, dusty greenery, feathery Fern, and seed pods in mauve. This modified cascade style silk bridal bouquet is a show stopper!

The bridesmaid bouquets weren’t the exact same shape but incorporated almost all the same elements as the bridal bouquet while giving off the same wild and rustic vibe.

This nontraditional shape bridesmaid bouquet is definitely becoming the norm as more bride’s are choosing more organic shapes and color palettes for both themselves and their bridal party.

Sunflowers in Silk Bridal Bouquet Wedding Flowers

,

I know I recently declared this the year of Cascading bridal bouquets, but I have to walk that back a little and also declare it the year of the Sunflower! And since this bouquet is both a cascade style and has sunflowers, it’s extra special! Elisha is from Michigan and saw these maize and blue themed wedding flowers and wanted something similar for her wedding. Her bridal bouquet was a mix of ivory Roses, Sunflowers, blue Apple Blossoms, white Daisies, blue Thistle and Smilax for a touch of green.

Elisha wanted a touch of rustic and had the idea to have the bouquet wrapped with twine, rather than a traditional satin ribbon. It’s a perfect look!

The groom’s boutonniere was an ivory Rose bud, blue Thistle and mini Sunflower. The groomsmen boutonnieres were a mini Sunflower, blue Apple Blossom and Baby’s Breath. The fathers had a smaller version of the groomsmen. The mother’s wrist corsage was a few mini Sunflowers, baby’s breath, greens and navy ribbon. Elisha wanted to continue the rustic theme so the bouts got wrapped in twine too. The mother’s corsage had a touch of blue ribbon for a little more color.

Blush, Navy and Ivory Custom Silk Wedding Flowers

, ,

When Emily gave me the go ahead to give her a truly custom look for her bridal bouquet in silk wedding flowers, I WAS SO EXCITED! She sent me a few inspiration photos, her color palette and feedback on my ideas and I’m proud to present this very pretty modified cascade bridal bouquet in blush and ivory with tons of greenery.

I seriously packed this baby with tons of flowers, textures and style. It is composed of ivory and blush pink Roses, blush centered Garden Roses, ivory Spray Roses, ivory Ranunculus, Baby’s Breath, Scabiosa Seed Pods, Peony buds, seeded Eucalyptus, Dusty Miller, and Smilax. This asymmetrical design is one of a kind and fantastic, if I do say so myself!

Emily knew exactly what she wanted for her Maid of Honor and Bridesmaids bouquets. We started with a base of all white baby’s breath and for the Maid of Honor I added in some of the blush Roses and the blush centered Garden Roses. A little bit of seeded Eucalyptus and these simple designs were so pretty!

Emily also needed some clusters of flowers for her simple and elegant cake. I didn’t want to do anything too large or fussy, so I designed these 4 small clusters to be placed on the layers for a look that would match her bouquets.

Elopement Bridal Bouquet in Silk Wedding Flowers

, ,

Elopements are making a come back! Here’s another custom silk bridal bouquet for an elopement. Amanda wanted to incorporate some of her favorite flowers and colors in a beautiful modified cascade style bouquet for her elopement this fall that will take place in a Pecan Grove. How romantic right?? Her favorite flower is the Peony (and mine too!) and she also wanted to feature the color pink and a hint of yellow. I sent her a few emails with a variety of options and we settled on the elements you’ll see below: bright pink Peonies, blush pink Peonies, pink and white Magnolia, white Spray Roses, bright pink Wild Roses, Forsythia and yellow Queen Anne’s Lace. She wanted her bouquet to have some rustic charm, so I added a burlap ribbon to the handle and a delicate ivory lace wrap to finish it off.

For the groom’s boutonniere, I used one Magnolia blossom, one Forsythia flower and a small Wild Rose bud. A little bit of burlap and it was a perfect match!

Silk Champagne and Ivory Bridal Bouquet and Altar Arrangement

, ,

Rachel contacted me about flowers for her upcoming private wedding ceremony. She was not completely settled on a style, so I sent her to my blog to poke around and look at different bouquet designs. She loved the look of this lavender, plum and ivory bouquet and the color palette of this champagne and ivory bouquet. Because everything I create is custom, this was no problem at all. Rachel got a mashup of these two bouquets for a stylish and beautiful cascading bridal bouquet in silk flowers.

I custom dyed the Dahlia to have a champagne center to match the champagne Peonies and Heather. I added in some ivory Roses, white Baby’s breath and finished it off with some Lamb’s ear for a softer touch of greenery. And literally this Lamb’s ear is so soft! It adds such a romantic texture to any bouquet!

I made a matching groom’s boutonniere with an ivory Rose bud, a small sprig of Heather and lamb’s ear tied with matching ribbon. Her father’s boutonniere was a simple Rose bud and Lamb’s ear. So classic!

Rachel sent me a few photos of the altar set up at her church. Even though this would be a small private ceremony, she still wanted to add a custom altar arrangement that would match her bouquet. This two piece arrangement consists of a swag and a garland. By making it as separate pieces, she can configure this however she likes when she gets there. Made to either hang or lay down, the swag looks seamless with the garland. And it will be sure to bring some color and warmth to her ceremony.
