When KC Weddings does their bouquet photo shoot they contact all kinds of different floral designers around Kansas City. Usually there's a theme in mind, for instance I made this bouquet for the last shoot which was all about using items other than flowers. This time the challenge was to create an inexpensive bouquet to show budget brides that they can have beautiful flowers without spending a fortune. I've been really loving the soft pastel color palette that's been so on trend for next year, and of course I had to throw in a few bright touches with sherbert colored zinnias as well.
The flowers that I chose are what most people traditionally consider filler flowers such as carnations, stock, chrysanthemums, and baby's breath. However used in a similar color palette, and lots of them they make a big impact, and a charming display. I also added in some dusty miller leaves, and home grown zinnias from my own backyard, and wrapped it all up in grey satin ribbon with a vintage trim of gold leaves.
Here's the final shot in KC Weddings.
Don't you just love that amazing mantel and silver tray? A big thank you to KC Weddings for asking me to take part in the Spring/Summer Issue!
