“AMAZING! Erin was so easy to work with and blew me away with her creations. She took what I had in mind and made it come to life, and they looked better than I could have ever imagined. Everyone kept thinking the bouquets were real! When we received some photos back from our wedding, I could not believe how stunning they looked in photos. I am still in awe!”

Cabernet, Blush, and Cream Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

, ,

Bride Stephanie was a dream to work with last year and she was kind enough to send me some images from her big day! Let’s take a look at these photos of her custom silk bridal bouquet from Marquee Studio.

Stephanie’s bouquet was a mix of blush and wine Peonies, pinkish burgundy Dahlia, cream Dahlia and lots of Eucalyptus and Lamb’s Ear. It was a modified cascade style bouquet that was full, but not overpowering.

I love this picture of the guys! They are holding the bridesmaid bouquets that were the same mix as the bridal bouquet, just in smaller handtied style bouquets.

“A very delayed review from our winter wedding because I’ve been so overwhelmed by how beautifully everything turned out and I couldn’t pick favorite photos! Erin was an absolute pleasure to work with. It was the best of both worlds - getting to lean on the expertise of a florist, with the longevity and lower stress (and less price fluctuation) of faux florals. She did an amazing job matching the bridesmaids dress color (azazie cabernet), and suggesting alternate colors for the groomsmen boutonnieres when we didn’t want to use all white flowers. Flowers arrived early and shipped well! Would absolutely recommend!”
— Stephanie | New Jersey

I love the look of joy on Stephanie’s face here! Thanks again to another wonderful client and for the photos from Marquee Studio.

Sisters' Bridal Bouquet Recreations - Reveal and Review

, , , ,

Bridal Bouquet recreations aren’t just for the gifting husband. I have had sisters, friends, and moms all order them for someone else. I have also had plenty of brides who wanted a bridal bouquet recreation in silk wedding flowers for themselves! Rounine, my lovely customer, fit into two of those categories. She wanted a bridal bouquet recreation for herself and one for her sister! Let's take a look at these very special pieces.

Rounine’s bouquet was a mix of white Roses, Eucalyptus and Seeds in a round handtied style. So classy and elegant!

“My sister and I got married really close and we both wanted to preserve our flowers but didn’t know how. I was on google and the website came up, I emailed Erin and hoped she could do it, I was not disappointed. She communicated and sent pictures throughout the process, and it was affordable. I also wanted to surprise my sister with her own bridal bouquet recreation. I received the bouquets on Saturday and my sister happened to be with me. She was so happy with hers, she couldn’t believe how close it was to her actual bouquet. She like me wishes that she knew about love is blooming before her wedding day. We would have just gone with “fake” flowers and be able to keep all of our floral arrangements. We are very happy with the end results and we hope to use them in the future for our anniversary celebrations and preserve them along with other mementos from our wedding. Thank you again for a job well done.”

It included Cymbidium Orchids, Anemone, Thistle, Stock flowers, burgundy Roses, Hypericum Berries, Kangaroo Paw, Queen Anne’s Lace, Eucalyptus, Grass and Bunny Tails.

This stunning bouquet was made up of all one type of flower with a white satin ribbon wrap and sheer criss-cross overlay. Let’s look at Steve’s awesome choice for an anniversary gift!

“I found the Love Is Blooming website while searching for a gift for my 12th wedding anniversary. The traditional gift is silk and they had the perfect gift, a bridal bouquet recreation made from silk flowers. I knew this was the gift I just had to get so I sent some photos of my wife’s bouquet and was pleased to find out that they could recreate it and that they were able to fit my order into their schedule so that it would arrive in time for my anniversary.

Blush and White Tropical Destination Wedding Bridal Bouquet - Reveal and Review

, , ,

Heather reached out to me with a few inspiration photos and a truly blushing bride color palette for her destination wedding. Her vibe was beachy, romantic, soft and a touch of glamour. She requested that the bouquet was small to make travel easier, but she didn’t want to loose any drama. I sent a few flower ideas and got to work on a custom bridal bouquet in silk wedding flowers.

I went with an asymmetrical design for the shape with a more subtle draping to the bouquet. I incorporated white and nude pink Garden Roses, white Baby’s Breath, white Phalaenopsis Orchids and blush pink Anthurium.

“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

Kaitlin’s bridal bouquet was a show stopper. To recreate it, I needed to duplicate the same drama! Her bouquet was a mix of pink Roses, pink Dendrobium orchids, white Calla Lilies, Fern, Seeds, Pittosporum and Ruscus in a long tear drop cascade style bouquet. Let’s take a look at the side-by-side to see how the recreation in silk wedding flowers turned out!

Thanks to Stark Studio for the lovely images from Katilin’s big day!

“I absolutely love my recreation! I love flowers and was so sad to part with them after my wedding day. Now I’m able to feel those memories again each time I look at them. Erin did a fabulous job making my bouquet look just like the real one did on my wedding day! This was a first anniversary gift for me and I couldn’t have asked for something better!”

Sunflower Silk Wedding Flowers- Reveal

, ,

I’m writing this on the official first day of summer and today is July 4th, but I happen to be sharing an example of wedding flowers from a fall wedding, last year. Take note of the fact that these silk bridal and bridesmaid bouquets could easily fit into a summer wedding. The colors are bright and vibrant, with a lush look that could work for either season! These images are by the talented Dayna Quimby Photography.

The bridal bouquet was loose handtied mix of Sunflowers, burgundy Dahlia and Peonies, orange Dahlia and Ranunculus, yellow Heather and touch of navy Delphinium. I added a variety of greenery that worked so well with their outdoor ceremony site. The bridesmaids carried smaller versions of the bridal bouquet. We finished them all off with some burlap wrapped around the stems for a rustic touch.

I absolutely loved the detail on her wedding dress! And this back drop of a beautiful wooded area makes the dresses and flowers really pop!

Thanks again to my awesome bride, for her version of vibrant fall silk wedding flowers and to Dayna Quimby Photography for these lovely images. If you are looking for a different take on fall silk wedding flowers, fill out the Free Bride’s Checklist today!

White and Green Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

, ,

Last fall, I did a series on white silk wedding flowers with greenery. I had shared these wedding flowers that I photographed on my dining room table and it just didn’t do them justice! Let’s take a look at Rachel’s delicate white silk flower bouquets in these gorgeous images from Liv Naturally Photography.

Rachel’s bridal bouquet was a round handtied style with Lily of the Valley, Baby’s Breath and Stephanotis with Lamb’s Ear, Olive greenery and Silver Dollar Eucalyptus. The we simplified the bridesmaids to be more of a clutch size bouquet with Baby’s Breath, Lily of the Valley, Stephanotis and just a touch of greenery. It was a perfect look to go with their sage green dresses.

Rachel’s mom, Jill, was actually the one I primarily worked with to design and bring Rachel’s vision to life for her Duluth wedding.

“Erin was so great to work with. We provided lots of information and pictures of what my daughter wanted for her wedding flowers, and Erin hit it out of the ballpark! She kept us updated, and provided photos along the way, to be sure my daughter was happy with the look. But, when we received them they were so much more beautiful than the pictures depicted. My daughter is petite (read, short :-)) and she didn’t want something that would overwhelm and cover her up too much and Erin really listened and payed attention to all the details. Thank you so much for your part in making my daughter’s wedding such a beautiful day in May!!”

Silk Bridal Bouquet in Purple - Reveal and Review

, , ,

Today, I get to share with you a truly custom silk bridal bouquet! Sarah contacted me about creating a custom bridal bouquet for her to match the bridesmaid bouquets she already had. I was able to make some suggestions that matched closely and also included some unique elements that would make her bouquet stand out, but also work with what she had.

Sarah’s silk bridal bouquet was a loose, round handtied that was full of beautiful texture and colors. 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.

“Erin was wonderful to work with. I was afraid to buy faux flowers online and not get to see the quality of them. I did not want the “fake flower” look. I sent over some bouquets I liked and what I already had. Erin was wonderful with giving advice, listening to my likes and dislikes and sending pictures of ones she put together quickly without charging additional to do so. Her communication was top notch. She responded so fast and in a timely manner. She had it put together and shipped so fast. I absolutely love it and it doesn’t give off that “fake look”. I am super satisfied and definitely recommend. ”
— Sarah | Ohio

Sarah sent me this photo of her bouquet and one of the bridesmaid bouquets next to each other so you can see how well they work together.

Yesterday was my 18th anniversary, so I thought it would be a good idea to share a great idea for an anniversary present!

Dusty Blue and Sunflowers in Custom Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

, , ,

Dusty blue is a hot color right now for silk bridal bouquets, and I’ve mixed it with everything from blush, to burgundy, to gold, to peach! The wedding I’m sharing with you today was a gorgeous outdoor wedding in Florida that was full of texture and color and just so lovely. Take a look at these images from Imely Photography and Video.

Katie’s gorgeous modified cascading silk bridal bouquet was a mix of Sunflowers, dusty blue Roses, ivory mini Cabbage Roses, yellow Astilbe, Queen Anne’s Lace, Fern and Ficus greenery. She wanted some pearl accent so we went with some larger scale pearl picks to just add that little bit of glam to her bouquet. A lovely bouquet for a beautiful bride!

The two bridesmaid bouquets were round handtied style bouquets with the same mix of flowers as the bridal bouquet. We left the pearls out so they were just special to Katie’s bouquet.

Katie had the most amazing venue for her big day. This awesome entryway to the ceremony site had window boxes on either side of the doors. I created small garlands to lay in there with a few of the feature flowers and greenery for accent.

The arbor was a rustic wood piece that I created big, lush corner swag and a smaller vertical piece for the side. Peep those palms leaves in the back-so unique!

Katie had hanging jars for the ends of each row of benches. I created small bouquets for each one and all she had to do was drop it in the jars! And what’s great about pieces like this is that you can use them elsewhere in your décor-scroll down to see how they transferred seamlessly to her reception tables.

“I found Erin online looking for wedding flowers. Sunflowers with blue flowers were very rare to find but I ended up coming across a beautiful bouquet that was the colors I wanted but not exactly what I was looking for. When id read more through her page I had reached out and asked for the specifics. I wanted blue flowers and sunflowers with a very small amount of white but more added greenery and if possible somehow added accents of lace and pearls. Erin absolutely hit exactly what i wanted out of the park. She consulted with me while they were being done to make sure i was getting exactly what i wanted (actually better than i ever could have expected) and they came well before the wedding, so no nervous bride! I also did all the decorating for my wedding and the ties on these flowers and the easy drop ins for my mason jars made for an easy experience. I love that i get to keep these beautiful pieces as well and use them now as décor for my home as we couldn’t give them up and found a way to insert them into our lives daily. The fact that they are so tastefully done and not over the top made that easy for us as well. The price was also perfect and well worth it! I wouldn’t change one thing about how beautiful her flowers tied our wedding together! Thank you Erin for such an amazing and easy experience.”
— Katie | Florida

A couple of the guys’ boutonnieres.

The cake flowers were small clusters of Sunflowers, dusty blue Roses and accent flowers, Queen Anne’s Lace and greenery. Katie also incorporated some of her own décor that all looked so good together!

Coral and Teal Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal

, ,

Courtney reached out to me about creating custom silk wedding flowers with a slightly tropical vibe. Her colors were coral and teal and I used some sandier/taupe tones mixed in with white roses and greenery. Let’s take a look at some lovely images from Monica Mize Photography!

Courtney picked out a teardrop cascade shape for her bouquet. We filled it with Roses, Peonies, Ranunculus, mini Orchids, Seeded Eucalyptus and a spiky Succulent. It kind of reminded me of a Sea Anemone and was the perfect mix of mauve/peach for her bouquet!

What a great looking group! Courtney’s bridesmaids carried round handtied bouquets that were mostly coral and white with a pop of teal with a large Peony in the center. It kept everything cohesive and looked perfect with their dresses. Courtney also had a maid of honor wearing a dustier pink dress. At first we only had brighter coral flowers mixed in with the white and teal but then decided to add a more muted tone with some Toast Roses and it really helped blend Courtney’s bouquet with both color of bridesmaid dresses.

Courtney wanted all three colors incorporated into the boutonnieres so we used a white rose bud as the base with a few small coral orchids and a touch of teal accent flowers. Everyone matched!

Blush and Burgundy Fall Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal

, ,

Spring has sprung here in Minnesota, but the requests for burgundy flowers keep coming! So, I thought I’d share another gorgeous set of photos of silk bridal bouquets and wedding flowers sent in by a bride. Photos are by the very talented Jamie Dee!

This modified cascading bridal bouquet in custom silk wedding flowers was a mix of burgundy Dahlia, Roses and Amaranthus, blush pink Roses, white Roses, and Seeded Eucalyptus.

This bridal party looked amazingly classic in black tuxes and bridesmaid dresses. The dresses, especially, allowed those bouquets to really stand out!

The bridesmaid bouquets were a mix of 3 burgundy Roses and a single white Rose with lots of Seeded Eucalyptus in a round handtied style.

Custom Silk Winter Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

, , ,

I hate to talk about winter when spring in Minnesota hasn’t really shown up yet. As I write this, we are on day 4 of rain, snow, and clouds. But, it’s never too early to think about your winter wedding and how you want to incorporate silk wedding flowers into your big day.

Darlena is my hero! She had a February wedding, in Duluth (it gets real cold up there by the way)! She had a vision for her wedding and bridal bouquet, and she made it happen. I was lucky enough to be able to provide the floral accents to her beautiful wedding. Her photographer was a friend and gave permission to share photos from the wedding. Let’s take a look!

Darlena’s bridal bouquet was a mix of white Roses, Carnations, Anemone, Queen Anne’s Lace and Foxtail. The greenery was a mix of Cedar, Olive Greens and Seeded Eucalyptus. And then to add a little something extra there were gold dipped Pinecones. This bouquet was a result of a few inspiration photos Darlena sent and working together to come up with a perfect custom look for her.

I got to make these really fun and classy aisle arrangements that featured big pinecones, roses and carnations and pine and cedar branches. The simple white ribbon finished the look perfectly!

“Erin was FANTASTIC to work with! She took what I saw on Pinterest and brought it to life! Definitely worth going to her! Thanks so much Erin!”

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.

Bridal Bouquet Recreation for a Sister - Reveal and Review

Today’s dose of joy and sweetness is brought to you by Kelly, the kind of sister everyone wants! Kelly contacted me about recreating her sister’s bridal bouquet. It was a striking combination of yellow roses, dark purple Iris, white Baby’s Breath and rhinestones. Here’s how it turned out!

“Erin was absolutely the best to work with. After I reached out to her about recreating my sisters wedding bouquet, she responded back almost immediately with answers to all my questions. The final product was way better than I ever could have imagined. It was beautiful, solid, and looked exactly like my sisters bouquet, even down to the rhinestones in the flowers and the pearls in the wrap. It was absolutely perfect. Erin kept in contact with me throughout the whole thing with pictures and tracking info when it was sent. I was amazed with how fast she made it and sent it. The flowers came in perfectly intact and unsquished. I am so glad I found her and I absolutely recommend her to anyone that needs flowers for a wedding or a recreation done. I am so beyond happy with how it came out. Thank you so much Erin!”

Custom Green and White Silk Hand-Tied Bridal Bouquet - Reveal

, ,

There is nothing more classic than white wedding flowers with greenery. Colors come and go in popularity, but I probably do just as many white wedding arrangements every year as I do ones with color. Sarah’s custom silk wedding flowers were simple, but so pretty. It allowed all the dresses to shine as well as their beautiful outdoor location! Today, I get to share some beautiful images from HL Photo. Check them out on Instagram (@hl.photo1 on Instagram) or Facebook (HL PHOTO).

Sarah’s beautiful round handtied bridal bouquet was a mix of white Peonies, white Sophia Roses, white seeds, Heart Eucalyptus, gray standard Eucalyptus and Silver Dollar Eucalyptus.

She chose the clutch style bridesmaid bouquets. Despite there only being one flower featured, you can see that there was plenty of fullness with the mix of greenery.

-With Larger Blooms

Such a beautiful location and I feel so lucky to have designed custom silk wedding flower arrangements that got to be a part of it.

One of the things I advise to any bride is to incorporate the bouquets into your reception decor and this is a perfect example of that. Sarah bought simple vases and was able to use the bridesmaid bouquets for additional decor on their desert table.

Burgundy and Taupe Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

, ,

One of the up and coming hot colors is a surprising choice - it’s taupe! It’s a wonderfully warm neutral that goes with a variety of accent colors and adds an unexpected richness to wedding decor. Today, I get to share with you a great example of incorporating taupe into wedding flowers. Tiara had an awesome vision for her custom silk wedding flowers that included texture, neutrals and burgundy. I showed her a variety of options, and she pretty much said “Yes!” to all of them! Let’s take a look at the magazine-worthy images Tiara sent me from the photographer who captured her day so beautifully: Narvold Photography.

Tiara’s modified cascade style bridal bouquet was a mix of taupe and coffee colored Roses, burgundy Roses, Peonies and Calla Lilies, Cynara pods, Thistle, burgundy Amaranthus, sage Fern, mauve Queen Anne’s Lace seeds, Seeded Eucalyptus and beige Heather. It was a STUNNER!

“Erin is absolutely fantastic to work with and she created the most beautiful bouquets for my wedding. After sending her a few photos and ideas she was able to visualize and create exactly what I was looking for and more! I highly recommend!”
— Tiara | Minnesota

The bridesmaids were wearing beautiful burgundy dresses and carried handtied versions of Tiara’s bouquet. I even made mini bouquets for the flower girls.

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!

Burgundy and Gold Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

, ,

Since were past spring wedding orders, I thought I’d set the mood and get you thinking ahead to fall! Elsie’s burgundy and gold silk wedding flowers are such a classic combination. You can’t go wrong with Roses and Sunflowers and when the colors are just so perfectly matched for fall-it’s always going to look amazing! Elsie shared her photos with me, by photographer Photos by Red and I get to share them with you today!

Her round ball style bridal bouquet was a mix of burgundy Roses, gold Sunflowers, rhinestones in the Roses and a few clear bead sprays. We also added burlap wrap on the stems, a burlap ruffle around the bottom of the bouquet and a touch of lace and ribbon. Accents like that can set things apart in simple, but elegant ways. The bridesmaids carried round ball style bouquets with the same flowers and stem wrap, but without the rhinestone accents. Scroll to the bottom to see a few detail shots of Elsie’s bouquet.

“Erin is absolutely AMAZING!!! I was kinda in a bind because I didn’t want to spend so much on real flowers and I didn’t want to worry about having to make them myself. So one day I was on Google and just happened to come across Love is Blooming and I’m sooooo glad I did! Will definitely recommend to everyone I know who needs flowers!!! Not to mention her prices are so reasonable!!!”
— Elsie | Kansas
custom-silk-wedding-flowers-burgundy-gold-roses-sunflowers-bridal-bouquet-boutonnieres-table-arrangements

We kept all the boutonnieres and corsages on theme with burgundy Roses and mini Sunflowers with twine wrapped on the stem. This is a good option to match the texture, but not the bulk, of burlap.
