Fall--fresh and green.

Green and white, one of my personal favorite color combos.

We were lucky enough to design this wedding last fall. The bride had an overall vision but let us put our spin on it.

We combined traditional hydrangea and dahlias ,then we added a little twist of scabiosa pods, berzillia berries, veronica and mixed

foliages to add just a little fun.

Bouttonieres, you can't forget about the guys-this one seems to be popular for us--holds up to the hours of hugging, dancing and most important, not too girly!

Thanks to Pam-A la Vie photography for the images.

Barbara at Barbara's Brides for making the "Plan B" seamless.

A little more fall...

A super fun bouttoniere--a great complement to the dark brown accents.

Tall Centerpieces-- branches, curly willow and rocks.. this is an outdoor deck, so had to be heavy enough to stand up to the wind!

And the low complementing arrangements.. I think it is important to see all the elements come together.

More shades of pink!

Maybe we'll have a whole week of pink? Another gorgeous pink wedding from the summer--

this was another sweet wedding with all of our favorites--raspberry pink hydrangea, the gorgeous Sarah Bernhardt peony, ranunucla, and roses.

All the flowers were in shades of pinks to complement the bridesmaids black gowns-a black and white combo for the jr bridesmaids.

Even the groom sported not only a pink bouttoniere, but also a pink pocket square!

Thanks again to smsphotography

Purple to go!

Purple has been and will be popular for a while--this was a spring wedding earlier this year-

I loved the combination of purple flowers-- orchids, lisianthus, stock and sweet peas.

How great is this suit? I did not see this in person--our bride and groom chose to have the flowers picked up from our studio on the day of the wedding. This can sometimes be an option depending upon the scope of the event--in this case, personal flowers and 5 centerpieces.

Congratulations to a super cute couple and thanks to MatthewJohnson studios for the images!

More favorites!

Miniature calla lilies remain a popular flower for weddings.

They come in a variety of colors, white, yellow, hot pink, shades of purple, and then the mango and fall tones.

I'v talked about their expense before-

Above we paired the white with some super fun ostrich feathers ( I know they are not for everyone) but they certainly added a little whimsy to an otherwise formal bouquet!

The yellow always provide a spectacular bloom-we collared these 20 with a few green cymbidium orchids and finished with the fatsia leaves.

Always a favorite, the miniature calla lily bouttoniere-- here we added a finish of gold boullion to go with all the outrageous metallics we are seeing this season.

The new classic

A winter bouquet from this past winter-- I love the combination of flowers , creating a full,lush texture in shades of whites and ivory.

Dendrobium orchid blooms for the groom--simple, elegant. The perfect compliment to a tuxedo and bowtie.

The flower girl pomander--shades of reds- roses, orchids!

This bouttoniere showcases one of our most requested fall flowers-

More from the Bridal Extravaganza

 

A few more bouttonieres-- anything with berries is always a hit with the guys, not too frilly or fluffy!

 

One of our favorites in white- dendrobium orchid blossoms- 

 

Green spider mums-- accented with berries and ladies mantle-- green is starting to feel as classic as white!

A darling dahlia.

 

A classic rose.

Lily of the valley

 

Lily of the valley-- words really do not do this exquisite flower justice.  It is not a flower that lands in our shop very often, primarily because of the cost.  This is a bouquet featuring 30 stems and would run anywhere between $300 and $400.  This was a special request that we were able to fulfill.

 

The groom sported a small bouttoniere  - 3 stems.  The same bouttoniere my husband donned a mere 19 years ago.  There was a lot of hoopla surrounding the lily of the valley,  he questioned if he had ever seen it in person before? When I answered your bouttoniere at your own wedding, he responded , really?  Guess it didn't make an impression for him!!

 

Sorry for the blurriness, I must learn how to manage this fancy contraption of a camera that I own. Although, this is not Lindsey's bouquet, go over to Dave's blog, to see some photos from Lindsey and James wedding. (Lindsey is our Becky's daughter, the wedding was a few weeks ago) That would be Dave Mclaughlin-dcmphotography.com , check out his work (and his cutie pie daughter)

Lindsey's bouquet was a combo of lily of the valley and sweet peas, absolutely lovely!
