Flower of the Month: June - Rose

The past few weeks we have shown how roses can be used in bouquets, centerpieces, and boutonnieres. As a final farewell to June and the Rose, we want to show you a variety of ways that roses can be used in other parts of your event.

Enjoy the pictures, take inspiration, and check back with us to find out next month's flower!

Flower of the Month: June - Rose

Over the past two weeks, we have shown some of our favorite designs for bouquets and centerpieces. And this week we are going to showcase boutonnieres and corsages. Traditionally, body flowers (flowers worn to show a person's significance) have been a nod towards the bridal bouquet or towards the color of clothing worn at the event. However, gone is that tradition! Boutonnieres and corsages have been upgraded to small pieces of art with as much importance as the other flowers in the wedding!

We hope you love these beautiful pieces of art as much as we have loved creating them!!

True Love Tuesday: Courtney & Dylan - June 9

Elegance. That was Courtney's idea for her big day. She wanted shades of red and pink and LOTS of roses. To ensure that the red and pink stood out, she decided to go with white and brown as a backdrop.

For her bouquet she wanted something that stood out, so to create something especially lush for her we chose a variety of roses in shades of pink and red and added a few tulips to provide some extra texture.

For the attendants, we created white bouquets out of Roses and Wax flowers with Scabiosa  Pods for an added texture.
The corsages and boutonnieres were all about texture. The corsages were white Spray roses with Wax Flowers wrapped in a brown satin ribbon. The boutonnieres were Scabiosa Pods, Curly Willow, and Ruscus leaves wrapped with a bronze wire.

Each mother had a different corsage made from the same roses as the bride carried. 
Isn't her bouquet stunning. The different textures of each variety of rose really makes the bouquet special. (Piano Roses, Hearts Roses, Tulips, and David Austen Roses)
The centerpiece we created for her head table with matching roses from her bouquet. 
Thanks to Details Weddings & Events for this great picture of the centerpiece we created using all of her roses.
