Giveaway!
Yesterday I wrote a book review on Bouquet Chic. To remind you, in case you've read about 35 other wedding blog posts since then, I said I adored it. I think many of you would adore it as well, brides and planners alike. Anyway, the giveaway. This morning, the author, Kimberly Aurora Kapur sent me an email this morning and has given me a copy to give to one lucky reader. Simply comment with your favorite bouquet flower(s) and we'll include you in the drawing. We'll pick a winner on Friday.
This is one of the ribbon treatments that I had mentioned to Kimberly that I thought was more than photo worthy. I've always been a fan of monograms, and I can see this one being an item that would hold sentimental value after the wedding.

Lately I've been loving anemones! They seem romantic and fresh at the same time!
I love bright, monochromatic bouquets with lots of texture! They lend a sense of timelessness, elegance and sophistication to any bridal theme. Here are my favorites:

I'm going to go with Iris's but Blue Iris's to be specific. Iris's come in so many fantastic colors, they look pretty full and the Blue Iris's have both my wedding colors, blue and yellow.
Along with varied texture, I love using different sized flowers in a bouquet for added dimension. Keeps everything modern, no matter what type of flower or what color palette you're using. That will glam-up inexpensive arrangements, too.
I adore the Tecolote Ranunculus!
And thanks so much for bringing my attention to this awesome book.
Me next! My favorite bouquet in this book is on page 73- it is SO my personality. But not the polka dots so much. For the handle treatment I like the one on page 33.
Stumbled across your blog and wanted to say hi! Love the monogram ribbons!! - Jody Gray
I was married in Louisiana so I made sure that I had indigenous flowers in my bouquet. I went with white Louisiana irises and small ivory roses. My colors were ivory and moss green so I had the ribbon made in moss green. My bouquet represented the setting and my heritage.
I LOVE Peonies. Classic, fresh, and romantic. Think there's any chance of getting them out of season for my September wedding?
Calla Lilies are my all time fave. Sweet, simple, and beautiful!
A tight round bouquet of pale pink peonies makes my heart sing. I came across an amazing peony pomander with pearls rather than ribbons as a holder and it was to-die-for!
I love roses a bouquet with roses, astramaria and caspia. But, lately I am really into Gerber Daisies. Also, of course I remembered your blog. You're my number 1 wedding page
I really like the nosegay bouquet on page 18!
I am drawn to white and ivory bouquets and love them with ranunculus. They are so simple and classic.
My favorite bouquet would have to include hydrangeas. I guess I'm a girly girl at heart and love the shades of pinks and purples and the indigos and blues are great for when things need toughening up a little.
Also, the large flower creates a voluminous effect without being chunky. Love them all around!
My favorite bouquet right now would include hydrangeas. I'm a girly girl at heart and just love the different shades of pinks and purples. The indigos and blues are also great when things need toughening up a little. And the fact that the flower is so big can give you a voluminous bouquet without being too chunky. Just a great choice!
