Colorful Wedding Flowers – Bright & Vibrant!

September 29, 2010

A couple weeks ago Matthew and I displayed at the Madison VFW Post 1318’s first mini bridal expo. We had a really fun time putting together some looks for the event. We broke it down into four seasons and created a look for each season. We gave a sneak peek of the event on our Facebook page, but over the next few days I’ll try to cover all four looks we came up with in detail here.

Tonight I’m highlighting our “Spring” look. The inspiration for this look was the bright, fun colors that come to mind when I think of the snow melting and the flowers that will soon be blooming.

The Bouquet: A bouquet of mixed flowers in bright colors. Orange asiatic lilies, “Orange Queens” alstromeria, hot pink gerberas, hot pink “Super Nova” spray roses, green hypericum berries, bright yellow cushion pomps and tinted yellow wax flower. The stems were wrapped with white satin ribbon and then a hot pink ballet stem treatment was accented with hot pink pins. Fun, trendy, fabulous!

The Boutonniere – a “Super Nova” spray rose, a yellow cushion pomp, a green button pomp and yellow wax flower with a bear grass loop accent and a basic tape wrapped stem.

The Corsage: A bright colorful wrist corsage. There are so many new products out there for bouts and corsages. Why not do something different? These bracelet style wristlets are so much fun. The flowers and accents simply glue onto a removable plastic plate so the bracelets can be worn again and again after your special event. This corsage was made with a hot pink gum drop wristlet, a hot pink “Super Nova” spray rose, a yellow cushion pomp, and yellow wax flower accented with salal greens and an orange ribbon.

So there you have it, our look for spring. Up next… summer!
