Wednesday: What's In It?

For Megan’s bouquet, we used an array of delicate flowers to create a lush, semi-organic bouquet. Blue delphinium, White O’Hara Garden Roses, Peach Fuzz spray roses, and green lisianthus were artfully arranged to complement her fit and flare gown.

Inspiration vs. Interpretation: Colorful Folk Flower Crown

Victoria is Polish and she wanted to honor her heritage at this shoot. She brought me pictures of Polish and Slavic folk art flower crowns. Traditionally, flower crowns were worn by brides in rural Poland ceremonially as a symbol of the rite of passage of marriage. Victoria asked me to design a colorful, fun, modern crown for her to wear and a matching lapel for her fiance, Tim.

Wednesday: What's In It?

For Shannon’s bouquet, we used White Ashley Garden Roses, stock ranunculus, and anemones. To add texture, we intertwined dollar eucalyptus and seeded eucalyptus with the fluffy blooms! Blue delphinium added the perfect touch of something blue to bring the whole bouquet together.

Inspiration vs. Interpretation: Classic White Round Bouquet with Something Blue

I ask almost every client for inspiration photos during the creative process. It helps me understand exactly what they are envisioning for their wedding. When Shannon reached out and asked me to dessign for her and Brent’s intimate nuptials at Cooper Chapel, she actually brought me a picture of my own design! I was so flattered! She loved everything about it, but wanted to add a touch of something blue.
