Designers thoughts on Bouquet
This whole shoot was extremely fun and inspiring. Seeing every piece come to life was so satisfying.
I’m so happy with the decisions I made while designing the bouquet. The size, the ingredients, the colors. I wanted her to be a silent star. Working with neutrals has been such an amazing challenge. It has shown me how much we rely on color alone to make the piece inspiring to others. We don’t use our imaginations enough on other elements, like texture or size.
If I wanted her to stand out, I had to rethink the traditional size and shape. By bringing in light tones with darker greenery I was able to create depth. Utilizing the length of the flower I was able to make a hand held centerpiece, that included interesting spacing, allowing the eye to dance through the bouquet.
I wanted her to tell you about the vendors behind the creation. Because like neutrals we get lost in the background. Every now and then we deserve to be seen and recognized.
The Teepees hand made by Nanette Art & Design. These were so cool to work with! The challenge of getting the chicken wire to hold up was difficult, but the result was worth it!
Ingredients for Teepee Florals: Italian Ruscus, Pepper berry, tibet white rose, dried bleached amaranthus, dried bleached fern, dried pompous grass, & teal color pops mix matched between the seven. The sweetheart table had a centerpiece adorned on top with the toffee rose included.
The tables were hand made special for this event. Kept natural to compliment the environment and theme.
The centerpieces were kept minimal and simple to not take away from all the other amazing elements of this event! They included: toffee rose, white Tibet rose, cream lisanthus, & thistle surrounded by smilax held by antique vessels provided by Embellish Vintage Rentals. Complimented by Macrame navy chargers hand made by Roots Co Macrame, navy goblets, and candles.
Final Thoughts
I believe I achieved all of this and more. It has been a dream to do this work beside these amazing lovely talented women.
My hope is that everyone who views these photos feels the true intention behind them and that real people did everything they could to make this happen.
