As promised, I am back again with some flower faves! This week I am focusing on things pretty in pink. Pink was a big favorite with our clients this year and I am seeing lots of pale blush pinks and magentas going into 2011 bookings.
Of course the summer and spring favorite is the beautiful peony! I love using these frothy blooms for as many brides as possible between May and June as they are their most beautiful that time of year! We coupled the peonies with vibernum with a mod white vase for this particular arrangement.
Two pink bouquets – one classic, one modern. A classic rounded bouquet comprised of Dutch pink hydrangea, pink ranunculus with white freesia. Then – I made the mod bridal bouquet on the right a few years ago – but continues to be a favorite among brides that come in looking for something a little different. The pink mini calla lilies are mixed with black magic roses and pink nerine lilies.
This year was filled with fun soda and lemonade stations and we added some cute pink metal bins to our inventory for this pink soda station with all natural Izze soda!
The pink and blue combination was also a big combination this year. We love using gerbera daisies for a fun (and not so serious) reception! Blueberries are a plus!!!
Of course – this would not be a post about all things pink without talking about the amazing pink headpieces that we featured in our first issue of Eco-Beautiful Weddings. Lo Boheme creates the most amazing headpieces from vintage materials and beautiful upcycled items. We loved the pink pouf headpiece and The Cotton Bride dress so much – it graced the cover our 1st issue as well!
We love these two bouquets mainly due to the fun vintage ribbons we used. Bouquet on the left was a fun bright pink rose, calla lilies, nerine lily and cymbidium orchid bouquet. The bouquet on the right was part of our first floral design layout with Eco-Beautiful Weddings in our premiere issue as well.
I love ending with something sweet! We have added new jars and glassware to our candy bar collection and pink never looked so sweet!
See you next week for some more flower faves!
