Sorry it has been so long, but here is the next post!
I met Deborah, the bride, through her sister Becca. I had the wonderful opportunity to do the flowers for her bridals and her wedding.
When Deborah, Becca, and I got to talk about flowers they showed me pictures they liked. When I saw the beautiful bouquets I got really excited to create them. Deborah mentioned she wanted a cascading bouquet, which I have not done before, so I was really excited to try out a cascading bouquet. Deborah was unsure about which one she wanted, cascading or ball-shape. She decided for her bridals she wanted to try the ball-shape and if she didn't like it then we would do a cascading bouquet.
The beauty of the flowers only reflects the beauty of the bride. These two different beauties, combined, is what every bride desires for her wedding day. For this beauty is the beauty from within her. She has found the one who sees the beauty in her and now she has the confidence to show everyone else what he sees.
I love the colors Deborah picked, and they are: purple, green, and white. We picked purple and white flowers and the ribbon she wanted were white and green colors.
The flowers in her bouquet were white roses, calla lilies (purple and white), and peruvian lilies (dark purple, white and purple). As you can see the the flowers and colors Deborah decided on turned out beautiful!
The ribbon on the bouquet has a base of white with the green wrapped around crossing over the green. Deborah wanted a green bow with extra long ends. The ribbons give the bouquet a unique and elegant look.
Deborah wanted her, then fiance, Stephen at her bridals. Here is his boutonniere! The flowers are dark purple peruvian lilies, a white spray rose, babies breath, and bear grass. I used the green ribbon to wrap the boutonniere. It looks perfect with Stephen's purple tie!
After her bridals were done Deborah decided she like the look of the bouquet and boutonniere and that is what she wanted for her wedding day. I don't blame her. I loved how these flowers and colors turned out. I also liked working with Deborah! It was wonderful to see how excited Becca was for Deborah. It was a wonderful example of sisterhood to see how they treated each other and finished each others sentences and thoughts.
