15 of our favourite bridal bouquets ... part 3
Before all of this fabulous spring weather we've been having recently, we started our look back at some of the best moments of the last year's wedding season! Here's part 3 in the series of our favourite bridal bouquets from last wedding season ... enjoy!
Luscious Bride's Bouquet ...
This wedding was featured on Style Me Pretty Canada!
Alyssa + Jay's wedding was jam packed with luscious and intense colour ... bright and bold tones of deep pink, red and burgundy ... the girls wore stunning peacock blue dresses! A feast for the eyes.
The floral colours borrowed heavily from our ‘Spirit’ palette and featured oodles and oodles of peonies, garden roses, orchids and pink hydrangea ... mmmmm.
The bridesmaids bouquets looked absolutely delicious against their peacock blue dresses!
The scrambling roses on the Vineyard Retreat were in full bloom ... just perfect!
Mid-Summer Night's Dream Inspired Bouquet ...
Muted tones of blush, butter, light purple, ivory and soft green were the colour palette for the big day ... a very Mid-Summer Night's Dream feel! The bride was so excited about her bridal bouquet and gushed about how 'we must've read her mind' ... we love it when that happens!!! :))
We used soft and romantic blooms such as garden roses, antique green and white hydrangeas, blushing bride, pieres and even some seasonal mint foliage, japanese painted fern fronds and variegated hosta leaves from our organic cutting gardens!
The maid of honour carried this pretty bouquet ...
The couple were married in an afternoon ceremony in the Atrium at Queen's Landing ...
Earthy + Textural Bride's Bouquet ...
The color palette for this wedding was 'Forest' featuring shots of caramel and butter with accidental indigo, deep pink and mango tones and loads of texture.
To accomplish the 'look and feel', we designed with green mums, garden roses, viburnum, hydrangea, cobra lilies and gardeny bits (from our Studio's organic cutting gardens!) including mint, heuchera and japanese painted fern.
Above: Bride Erinn's bouquet. Below: The bridesmaid's each carried a unique bouquet!
How we love the cute raspberries tucked in this bridesmaid's bouquet!
The bride and groom ... after just having tied the knot inside (during a torrential downpour), exit the Vineyard Retreat and the sun comes out ... on cue!! Matt's expression says it all.
Modern Vintage Bridal Bouquet ...
Deep purple, rose, champagne, burgundy and muted magenta were all in the colour palette for the day. A very modern vintage theme featuring classic glassware and pewter accents such as our hammered-rim votive holders, pewter linens and silver chiavari chairs.
Blooms included purple vandas, dazzling dahilias, roses, picasso callas, white and antique green hydrangeas, curly willow and toad lily plucked straight from our studio's organic cutting gardens!
The *Made with Love* Bouquet ...
While we were dreaming up our most recent photo / film shoot, we were really focused on some specific words and phrases such as ... 'local', 'heirloom', 'hand-made', 'authentic', 'community', 'nature', 'living in the moment' ... we followed our heart and really let these words become our mantra to guide us through this project.
At it's heart, *Made with Love* is a story about beauty, friendship, connection and kindred spirits ... it's a story that is about more than just a theme or colour scheme ... it’s about more than a schedule of events or formalities and pretense.
See the whole photoshoot here or watch the short film we made!
We hope you enjoyed our looki back at some of our favourite bridal bouquets from last wedding season ... we're really exited about all of the wonderful love stories we're going to be involved with in 2012!!!
