Personalize Your Bouquet

personalized bouquet

This year brides are looking for little ways to add a personal touch to their wedding. One way to achieve this is with you bouquet. Many brides are now adding family heirlooms such as pearl earrings, or a necklace to the handle of their bouquet. I have also seen brides wrap rosaries around the handle of the bouquet or a locket with a picture containing the couple’s picture. While the flowers are something you share with everyone, the handle of your bouquet is something personal and only for you. Adding personal touches to the handle makes the bouquet extra special and isn’t that what a wedding is all about; making things extra special?See Rosary pictured above. 

Trend Alert~Black and White Themed Weddings

black calla lily bouquet 

Black and white weddings were big last year, but this year they are going to be all the rage. This timeless look simply screams elegance. There are also a lot of ways to spice up a black and white wedding, like adding a black sash to your wedding dress or even getting a dress with a bit of  black in it. There are also many options for flowers. Roses are a timeless and beautiful option. Bouquets of mini white calla lilies are gorgeous, so is carrying one single calla lily. However, if drama is the name of your game then you have to go with the black calla lily. While they are not truly black, they appear black before they turn purple. So you and your florist will have to plan together to make sure the lilies look black. But this is a very bold and elegant look that is sure to be remembered. You may also think of having an all white candy bar. The all white candy bars are by far the prettiest I have seen. One thing is for sure the options are wide open for a black and white wedding. Whether you have something whimsy or traditional, it is sure to look extremely elegant.
