Spring Tulip Wedding Flowers

A truly spring wedding. The bride specifically chose tulips as they are a lovely spring flower. She carried a gorgeous hand-tie of white tulips to stand out against her purple dress. The foliage collar is of many ivy leaves and the stems were bound with ivory ribbon and held with pearl headed pins. The two bridesmaids carried hand-ties of complementary purple tulips again with an ivy collar and bound with ivory ribbon.

The buttonholes were simple white tulips with ivy foliage.

Blue wedding flowers

More blue themed flowers. Blue hydrangeas with aspidistra leaves in a small glass bowl. Bear grass loops in amongst the flowers mirror those inside the bowl.
A highly scented hand-tied bouquet of blue hydrangea and muscari with white freesia, spray roses and akito roses. Close up detailing.

Blue bridesmaid bouquet

A small bouquet, suitable for a bridesmaid or flowergirl, of blue muscari. Wrapped with ivory lace ribbon and pinned with matching blue pins. Blue muscari, a spring favourite.

An arrangement suitable for a table centre.

A masse of muscari bound with blue satin ribbon stood in a small glass bowl. The mirror is optional. The scent is delicious, imagine a room full of them.....

Arrangements

A few of the arrangements I have created as 'Thank you's' or display items. A gorgeous white display with lilies, gerbera, roses and anthurrium. Lime green midelino sticks and one stem of lily add volume to an otherwise compact display. Close up detailing of the white arrangement.
Another take on a glass cube arrangement. A stunning cymbidium orchid with seasonal pussy willow and tulips with black tie foliage.
A zinc dish arrangement using minimal flowers but maximum effect. A single pink anastasia, 2 pink gerberas and a couple of stems of green kermit chrysants with an aralia leaf and salal.

A modern basket design with stunning orange gerberas, gorgeous deep burgundy carnations and salmon roses. Finished off with lime green midelino sticks and a gold butterfly.
