I can only imagine how beautiful this wedding was. When I delivered the flowers, the bride answered the door with her hair and makeup done with a gorgeous veil placed perfectly atop her head. In the planning process, she used the words "simple elegance" to describe the atmosphere she wanted to create. With the help of her family, I would say the day was turning out exactly how she envisioned it. She looked absolutley beautiful. A true glowing bride. I got a chance to take a peak at her dress which was a simple a-line dress in a gorgeous cream satin that had a glistening of antique gold. The bridal bouquet I created for her struck everything she was wanting. The combination of velvet roses, calla lilies, hydrangeas, and eucalyptus created a simple, timeless elegance. The bouquet wrap added to the theme, but gave the perfect special touch. The embroidered hankie & shell buckle are from her grandmother. I used them to wrap the bouquet and the final result was very special and sweet. The bride loved her bouquet.
The bridesmaids wore a tea length sage green strapless satin gown. The contrast of the deep, velvet burgundy roses against their sage green dresses must have been beautiful. Simple elegance at it's best.
Continuing the theme, the men of the wedding wore simply elegant boutonnieres. The groom had a rose, berries, and eucalyptus. The groomsmen wore the berries with eucalyptus entwined through out. I hope the family emails photos of the actual wedding. From what I saw, it looked absolutely wonderful. Best wishes to the bride & groom!
