As the weddings wind down Gardeenia is gearing up - meeting with brides and grooms, creating new designs and planning 2011 weddings.
Here is some of our awesome staff, Nancy, Heidi, Laura(owner) and Mark at Bridal Expo Chicago at the Chicago Sheraton Towers. What a great show filled with luxury vendors offering top of the line wedding services. Our designs shined as we exhibited different color schemes in fresh designs and styles - something for every bride.
Purple and green promise to be hot colors this season. There are so many interesting flowers to choose from to create rich contrasts including berries, greens, ornamental kale and artichoke.
If you would like using some 'peacock' colors try adding blue to your purple and green combination. The bouquet above has a great earthy feel as highly textured eryngium, eucalyptus pods, berries and grasses are mixed with soft blue hydrangea.
Maybe tropical colors are for you, a splash of bright colors. Peonies, garden roses, pin-cushion protea, cattleya orchids in sherberty tones (is sherberty a word?) and how about this fun feather collar for a bit of glam.
For a more traditional look with a modern touch the beautiful rich reds of peonies and roses mixed with antique hydrangea look elegant and inviting including touches of brown fern curls, hanging amaranthus and burgundy ti leaves. This tall centerpiece has a little accent at the bottom for a finishing touch.
And for the bridal wanting to carry an all white bridal bouquet it certainly doesn't have to be boring. Mixing lilies, peonies, hydrangea, tulips and orchids - WOW! Nothing boring here only rich luxury.
Something fun and unexpected this little sparkly bouquet sure says a lot - beautiful gold tones, pops of white tulips and a fun beaded handle. Sassy.
