Ivory and green wedding flowers

This may be a little later than promised but here is the first wedding of 2013.
A lovely spring colour combination of ivory and green. The main flowers were germini with other spring flowers.

 The brides bouquet consisted of ivory germini, freesia and hyacinths with green viburnum, bupleurum and loops of china grass. A light collar of salal was added with the stems bound in ivory ribbon with green shoestring ribbon criss-crossed around diamante pins.

 The 3 bridesmaids carried a similar bouquet of mainly germini, freesia, bupleurum and china grass. Diamante pins were added to the centres of the germinis and the stems were bound with the same ribbon as the bridal bouquet.

 The little flower girl carried a silver heart wand with a single germini and china grass loops.

 The guys were each given a single germini with china grass loops as buttonholes.

The mums wore a similar design but one was a lapel corsage (above) and the other a wrist corsage (below)
These were of the same flower content as the brides bouquet.

Spring bouquets

 Today I thought I would show you some seasonal bouquets. These have all been made, appreciated and loved by past brides.
The top one is of white double tulips with ivory pearls threaded between the flowers with a silver aluminium and salal foliage collar. The stems were wrapped in white satin ribbon.

 A cute small posy of muscari tied with ivory lace ribbon. Suitable for a bridesmaid or flower girl or indeed for a bride for a small relaxed wedding.

 A larger hand-tied bouquet of white roses, freesia and tulips with blue muscari and hydrangea.

 These two were brides, top, and bridesmaid, below. A simple but effective hand-tie of one colour tulip with a collar of large ivy leaves.

Another hand-tie of yellow roses and tulips with white hyacinths and pitto foliage.

It is best to work with the season you are getting wed. The flowers are cheaper and quality is better, you're florist will be able to advise you of what is in season and when. These days you can get a lot of flowers year round but spring flowers are difficult to get out of their season, it is getting extended but not extensive.
