Boho Chic Wedding with Sunflowers, Dusty Blue and Ivory - Reveal

I am in love with the look of today’s featured wedding! Ashley had a specific vision for her wedding flowers and was able to really communicate that well as we hunted for the perfect flowers. Her colors were dusty blue, yellow, greenery and hints of ivory to match her dress. She wanted to incorporate a specific type of Dahlia, some Sunflowers, and Forget-Me-Nots in her cascading style bridal bouquet. I also added in Ranunculus, mini Sunflowers, Queen Anne’s Lace and a variety of greenery for a full, textured bouquet. Thanks to Kassandra Russell at Granite Stag Photography, we get to see some photos from this beautiful wedding day!

One of my favorite details from Ashley’s custom silk wedding flowers actually has nothing to do with me:) She added beautiful macrame wraps to each of the bridal party bouquets. They complemented her amazing lacey, crochet-look dress. This is a great example of how you can customize anything to make your silk wedding flowers completely unique, and completely you!

Here we get a little peak at the custom hair piece made to match Ashley’s bouquet. It pairs great with a veil, but can stand on its own too!

Here’s their awesome bridal party featuring attire in different shades of blue.

The bridesmaids carried round hand tied bouquets with a slightly different mix of flowers. Ashley wanted to incorporate Billy Buttons into their bouquets, and we left out the Dahlia and the Forget-Me-Nots to keep them as special elements for her bouquet. Their clutch style bouquets had a few Ranunculus, Sunflowers and Billy Buttons with the same greenery as the bridal bouquet.

We love our florals! ...I am speechless! They’re beautiful!

The backdrop for their ceremony was stunning. Ashley wanted flowers for the arch that featured the Sunflowers and Dahlias and filled in with greenery. As you can see, they didn’t need to be big and bold because the woods were the main feature!

These simple centerpieces incorporated her flowers and colors in mini bouquets. Ashley had picked out vases on her end, so I created these mini bouquets to work with what she had. Another benefit of silk flowers is that I work with your needs to come up with budget friendly options that are beautiful!

I mean, we gotta show the puppies, right?

I thought this was the cutest shot to end with. Their sweet flower girls had flower crowns with some mini accent flowers and baby’s breath.

Rustic Barn Wedding Flowers with a Glam Twist

Tracy wanted her fall wedding to full of rustic barn accents and glamour, but not the usual glitz and bling. When she emailed me this spring about her wedding flowers, she painted a very vivid picture of their theme. I'll let her tell it in her own words. 

" Just to give you a feel for the wedding, it will be in a renovated barn. But the theme is old time gangster meeting his sweetheart at a hideout because things were too hot back in the city."

Do you not just love that?! With that story in mind, we worked to find flowers that went with that theme, incorporated her colors, and followed the style of some inspiration photos she sent me. Here's what we came up with:

The Bridal Bouquet

Tracy will be carrying a teardrop bouquet with burgundy Lilies, purple Roses, purple and lavender Hydrangea, orange Button Mums, and Silver Dollar Eucalyptus.

The Bridesmaid Bouquets

Her three bridesmaids will carry a bouquet with matching flowers but in a loose round style bouquet with a single featured Lily. She had a couple of other arrangements she ordered that I crafted with the same flowers and that tie it all together.

The Wedding Cake

Not exactly a Pinterest-worthy setup, but shows off the beautiful cascade of flowers that will be added to their wedding cake.

Tracy's two flower girls are going to be wearing these adorable floral head pieces, modeled by my daughter. Apparently her Vikings jersey was a good match for modeling these pieces--girl loves watching football with her daddy;)
