Pink and White Silk Wedding Flowers with Bling

Pink, in any shade, is in style. In my 15 years of creating custom silk wedding flowers and bridal bouquets in Minneapolis area and across the country (and world), there hasn’t been a single year where I haven’t done multiple pink weddings. No purple this year, sure. No yellow in sight, no surprise there. But pink? There’s always been pink.

If you are considering pink, you can’t go wrong. And if you want to find a way for your silk wedding flowers to stand out, just add bling! Take a look these silk flower bouquets that I customized after my bride saw these flowers.

This round style silk bridal bouquet is made of Roses, Peonies, Tulips and hand wired broaches in the bouquet. I wrapped the handle with antique white ribbon before adding a layer of rhinestone wrap for some extra glam.

Bridal and Toss Bouquet

The bridesmaid bouquets matched but we decided to take out the tulips and add in Phalaenopsis Orchids as well as some individual oversized rhinestones.

Matching boutonnieres incuded Roses, Phalaenopsis Orchids and mini Peony buds. The wrist corsages were upgraded to include a pearl beaded bracelet—a keepsake the moms would get to wear after the big day was but a memory.

Wedding Bouquet Preservation Fail

Sadly, I receive emails like this fairly often, “Our fridge broke when we were on our honeymoon and my wife's wedding bouquet died! She was hoping to have it preserved.” Sometimes it’s a fridge mishap or the preservation process doesn’t end up looking as beautiful as anticipated. If you’re in that boat, I can help!

Dustin was the one that sent me that email and I was happy to help him recreate his wife’s beautiful bouquet in time for a Christmas gift. This elegant bouquet was made up of the elegant Gardenia and some greens. Simple and gorgeous! I found some exceptionally realistic fresh touch flowers that were perfect, since they were the focal point!

After our wedding, my wife put her bouquet in our refrigerator because she was hoping to have it preserved. We returned from our honeymoon to a broken fridge and the bouquet had completely rotted! Erin was able to recreate the bouquet beautifully and it’s actually hard to tell that the flowers are not real. Erin is professional, transparent, and a pleasure to work with. I am sure my wife is going to be ecstatic when she receives the bouquet on Christmas. I highly recommend using Love is Blooming!

April Snow Showers bring May Silk Wedding Flowers!

May is always a popular month to get married. Things feel fresh and bright and it's the start of something new. There are tons of color options for May silk wedding flowers and really anything goes! From the pinks and purples, to coral and red (check back next week to see that lovely color combo), to a classic blue and white like Mary and Jason's flowers.

As a friend of the bride and groom, it was fun to talk with them about their long anticipated wedding.  Having been together for over a decade, they were more than ready to make their plans become a reality. Mary has had her dress for a while and she wanted her flowers to complement the blue accents on her bridal gown.

I found some pretty blue Hydrangea, dark blue Roses, and we added in some white Calla Lilies (these fresh touch Callas are the best!) and tied it off with some silver ribbon. Her bridesmaids will carry a smaller version of Mary's bouquet and the toss bouquet is a simple clutch of blue Hydrangea and white Callas. I left some greenery and added some berries for a fresh from the garden look.

The boutonnieres and corsages in the same high quality silk flowers were a perfect match to the bouquets.

Creating wedding flowers is a special job because it's helping a couple celebrate one of the happiest days of their lives. It's even better when you're doing it for friends! Thanks Jason and Mary for asking me to be a part of such a special day!
