Burgundy and Blush Silk Wedding Flowers

Burgundy and Blush might have been someone’s million dollar idea this year. Even though I don’t know who decided it would be a hot color combo for bridal bouquets this year, I do know that I’ve loved all the different designs that have come out of it for silk wedding flowers here in my corner of Minnesota.

Anna wanted mostly the wine/burgundy in her bouquets with just a hint of blush. Her bridal bouquet was the modified cascade style draping, texture, and saturated colors. Basically she had a dreamy, romantic bridal bouquet with Dahlia, Calla Lilies, Cherry Blossom, Ranunculus, Babys’ Breath, and Eucalyptus. All the bouquets were finished up with a lovely burlap with lace overlay. It added to the rustic charm that Anna was hoping for.

The bridesmaids carried similar style bouquets with some slight changes that would allow the bridal bouquet to stand out a little more. The toss bouquet had the same variety of flowers as the bridal bouquet, just smaller and more throwable…throwier…aerodynamic!

Bridesmaid and Toss Bouquet

Here are some of the boutonnieres using the every classic and trust-worthy Calla Lily in a dark burgundy. These guys never let you down on your wedding day, especially because they are silk and you never have to worry about them getting crushed in all those bro-hugs or wilting in our unpredictable Minnesota weather.

Maybe you didn’t come up with this winning color combination, but you definitely want to use it in your own wedding. Fill out the Free Bride’s Checklist to get a quote and get the design process started with me!

Silk Bridal Bouquet Recreation in Fresh Touch Flowers

My absolute favorite flowers to use are Fresh Touch flowers. They look and feel real and they are especially perfect for bridal bouquet recreations in silk flowers. Take a look at the recreation I did for Jerry:

While this bouquet was itself pretty straightforward, the details are what made it shine! I’m pretty adamant about getting those details just right to make your anniversary gift that much more special.

Vintage Wedding Flowers

A few weeks ago, I got an email from out-of-state bride Susan looking for me to replicate one of my own vintage wedding flower bouquets. You can see the original design here. That particular bouquet had already sold on my Etsy shop, and because it was crafted more than a year ago, I wasn't sure if I'd be able to duplicate it exactly as pictured. The more I talked with Susan, the more I began to understand her vision for her vintage inspired wedding.  She wanted to tie in the color mauve that would be an element feature in her wedding dress. So I set out to find some flowers that would give Susan a similar look as the original bouquet but also give it a custom twist.

Vintage Bouquet in Process

The bouquet is still in progress, but here's a sneak peak of the main flowers you'll see in the finished product.

I'm really excited to share more as I progress on this design. Susan's bouquet will also have some awesome bling in a variety of pieces, including a cameo broach made by Susan herself. It's going to be gorgeous!
