Adding a Little Sparkle to Your Bouquet

Here are two ways of adding some sparkle or “bling” to your bouquet, just enough to enhance the flowers and add a refined elegant look without going over the top!

Gorgeous Gown and Bouquet

I’m loving this gown. One of our recent brides wore it and the bouquet we created for her complements it perfectly. The flowers and crystals on the gown are so elegant. The bouquet is soft, romantic and traditional with a combination of Roses, Calla Lilies and Peonies. We even added in some Swarvoski crystals to match with the gown.

A wedding by the sea

This weekend we did a gorgeous wedding by the ocean in NY’s famed Coney Island beach. What a perfect day to get married and take ocean front pictures! The sun was shining and the ceremony was held in the venue’s outdoor area complete with a romantic gazebo. The bride chose a combination of whites, creams, soft pinks and a touch of hot pink for her decor. My favorite part of the decor was her sweetheart table arrangement. We paired a stunning crystal candelabra with draped Swarvoski crystal strands with a bed of flowers around the base. On the sides of the table we used soft pink cherry blossom branches. This sweetheart table really popped! No one could miss this bride.

Wedding Day Glow

After last year’s cold and rainy summer we deserved all the sun we’ve enjoyed so far this year. With less than a month before Labor Day, fall brides should start pampering their sun kissed skin. For that wedding day glow schedule a monthly deep cleansing facial or for those on a budget you can do it yourself or have a spa party at home. About a week before the big day go in for your pre-wedding facial but make sure to give your skin enough time to heal if you’re prone to redness or breakouts. For that radiance that screams bride get an oxygen mask or spray the day before. You’ll be sure to get many compliments on your skin.

Wedding Accessories

That magical walk down the aisle starts with the long awaited bling, quickly becoming your new “best friend”. And that’s just the beginning of your wedding sparkle. While bling was once limited to bridal accessories and dress embellishments, stunning wedding jewelry is Hollywood’s hottest trend, splashed across the pages of bridal publications and prominently featured in wedding shows. Wedding bling can be used to accent centerpieces, canopies and cakes but is most commonly found in bouquets, adding glamour and a touch of elegance to your most sentimental blooms. You can find crystals and pearls in a variety of designs, colors and sizes. They are usually fashioned from crystals and rhinestones and even real diamonds, gems and pearls depending on your budget. Instead of the traditional bridesmaid’s gifts, if you want to do something special for your ladies in waiting, consider adding a beautiful touch to their bouquets as well and they can keep it as a momento. With so many brides looking to be unique this is one simple way to make your bouquet stand out. When it comes to your wedding day it’s the details that count!
