The Best of What Meegan Makes 2012-Bridal Bouquet is featured today!! I am excited to share this post with you. Not only because of the positive response I got, but because it has been a few years since I have done flowers-and I was so pleased with how they turned out. Enjoy!!
I told you about some Bridal flowers that I am doing lately. I did these last week:
These colors came out looking so well together. This is a few bridesmaid’s bouquets. Gotta love me some blue hydrangeas!!
Today another bride is taking her Bridal Portraits and wanted her bouquet for the sitting. She likes roses, succulents, and billy balls. Her wedding colors are champagne, taupe, peachy pink, creamy whites, gray and white.
Here are both the Groom’s boutonniere and the Bridal bouquet. I would love to show you a full view, but that is for the bride to do.
The “bout” is 2 yellow billy balls and 2 dusty miller leaves. I wrapped the stems with twine. The dusty miller leaves are the same shade as the succulents, so it works well. They are also a heavier leaf, like the succulents. I used the leaves for balance.
The Bridal bouquet. There are so many textures. I really like it. She needed a gray succulent, rather than green. I actually bought these at our local nursery in tiny pots. They work perfectly!!
These pictures make me smile! I hope they bring a smile to your face as well!! Their wedding is towards the end of September, so I am sure I will have more pictures for you then!!
