Pink and Silver wedding flowers

I have known Laura and her family for a few years and was delighted to be asked if I could design her wedding flowers.

The style of the wedding was to be country and the main colours to be pink. It was quickly decided a hand-tie style was appropriate for Laura and her 6 bridesmaids, who were wearing a lovely shade of blue. The flowers were briefly discussed but the final content was left up to me to decide.
Laura's bouquet consisted of Sweet avalanche and Sudoku roses, Gracia spray roses, stocks, sweet peas, astrantias, gueldarose, asparagus fern, ivy and baby blue eucalyptus.

 The stems were completely bound with silver ribbon and a silver organza bow to finish.

Stocks, Sudoku and Sweet Avalanche roses, Astrantia
 The six bridesmaids all carried a similar design although smaller and neater.


Two bridesmaids bouquets
The groom wore a Sweet Avalanche rose with an astrantia flower and gueldarose with ivy to match with his bride.
 The Mother of the Bride and Mother of the Groom wore matching corsages. Keeping in with the colour scheme they had a Sudoku rose with pink eustoma, Gracia spray roses, larkspur buds and pink gyp with baby blue eucalyptus.
 All the ladies of the bridal party wore a single Sudoku rose with pink gyp and baby blue eucalyptus.
 All the men of the bridal party wore a single Sweet Avalanche rose with ivy leaves.
Some of Laura's flowers all boxed up and ready for delivery.
