mismatched bridesmaids bouquets - SATC style!

sooooo....you may remember this stunning bride from monday's post...her style was fresh, light, neutral and classic...of course, a textured all white and cream bouquet was the perfect choice for her!



well for her personal flowers we decided to go a different route...the bride told me she wanted her bridesmaids bouquets to be very "sex and the city" style, where each girl carried a unique, individual bouquet custom made for her...so after asking each girl to choose a color, the bride let me create whatever i wanted based on each girls' color selection - FUN! i LOVE creative freedom! :)


if this is too bold for you, try doing each bouquet in different colors but similar tones (ie blush, pale pink, hot pink, deep fuschia, etc)...it still gives the effect of individuality and keeps your palette more moderate...


hot pink ranunculas...
blush peonies...
yellow gloriosa lilies...
wine colored dahlias...
fuschia cymbidium orchids...
blue hydrangea...
don't be afraid to think outside the box!!!

ps. fab bouquet shots all captured by dane sanders! :)

Ohhh I love how classy black and a pop of color are together. And the various types of flowers and dresses are so great.
