Sample Flowers for Miss Pineapple of WeddingBee.com
Since I've been back, I've been working on samples and orders like crazy even with the HOT HOT temperatures we've been experiencing in San Jose. Anyway, I promised Miss Pineapple of http://www.weddingbee.com/ that I would provide her with some sample pictures of possible flowers for her bouquet and her bridesmaid bouquets. I'm still working on the bridesmaid bouquet sample flowers, but this is what I came up with for her bouquet flowers.


To recap, Miss Pineapple's colors are copper, creams, champagne, and muted tones. Kind of a vintage, but modern elegance. So I decided on gardenias or peonies as the main flower and then muted copper toned and champagne roses with some tuberose and stephanotis flowers and of course, creamy white ranunculus. I actually really like the way these came out. I hope she does too! :) I decided to arrange them so she could see what they look like all put together instead of just individual flowers.

I'm looking forward to what she has to say! Hopefully it's good.... :)

Okay, so I finished the bridesmaid flower sample as well. I think they come together quite nicely. I love the addition of the purple, it really adds a vintage feel to the whole arrangement. On this one, I opted for the peach peony with the a goldish copper center, the copper tone roses, peach ranunculus, mauvish purple roses, some copper filler flower clusters and of course the stephanotis and tuberose flowers.

Vintage Elegance - Coral Pink, Purples and Browns!
This particular wedding came to me via Honolulu Wedding Consultants (http://www.honoluluweddingconsultants.com/). The wedding colors are peachy pink, purples and browns. The client didn't have a theme so we used a decorative border and the couple's monogram as the motif. The, menus, drink menu, appetizer menus and the place cards all came out really nice! The pearl bead accents also add a nice elegant touch. Vintage and classy!

This particular wedding is at the beautiful Paul Mitchell Estate on the North Shore of Oahu! I don't actually get to go to these awesome venues, but I live through the pictures after the wedding! :)

The color combination was inspired by one of the bouquets featured in the Martha Stewart Weddings Magazine - winter issue of 2008. IT's a classic bouquet of vintage purple roses, beautiful tuberose, pink tulips and coral peachy pink roses! I can't wait to see the florals for this wedding and how it ties into all the printed wedding details!
