Here are mine - somehow the colours seem to loose something when the image gets compressed . . .

I sent the florist some spectactular inspiration photos (well above my price range), and I was really happy with what she managed with my more limited budget. I will have to hunt around for those inspiration photos, they were really stunning.

Oh wow - those are beautiful!!!

My bouquet. It was beautiful. There were four different orchid types in there, two different (and amazing) types of roses and those gorgeous mango callas.

Gypsy - they look like ice cream! In a good way, LOL. Gorgeous!

Here is a picture of mine (the top of my bouquet, it was the best picture of the flowers themselves). I LOVED them! They were done by Out of the Woods in San Francisco:

Woah! Talk about a luscious purple!

Thanks geckodani! Here are the inspiration photos I gave the florist. Many of the flowers were out of season/not available in the relatively remote location where we were, so she sort of merged the two.

And one last shot of my actual flowers with the beach where we were married in the background.

Salty... these were my inspiration too. I was a little (very slightly) dissapointed that the green orchids in my bouquet wasn't as vivid as the one in this photo (or in your bouquet), but I reallly did love mine.

Saltymuffin, your florist did a amazing job! You know how sometimes concepts get lost in translation? This so wasn''t the case with your bouquet. Your florist really to seemed understand the look you were after and created something that was different and yet similiar, but equally beautiful as your inspiration bouquets

Thanks Gypsy

Those David Austin's are pretty. I found out the name of the roses on the cover of the Brides magazine - they're Yves Piaget roses.

ETA: Oops, pix didn't attach...

Sap, you've got excellent taste! All your flowers looked amazing - the bouquets, bouts and centrepieces! I loved everything!

 

[saltymuffin]

Gypsy, I noticed your flowers in your avatar before and always thought they looked really nice. Now I see why - we both had the same inspiration photo! I really like the way they translated into all the different arrangements. I especially like the tall centerpieces.
My florist wasn''t able to get either hydrangeas or peonies (both of which are two of my favorites, and appear in the inspiration pics), I was a bit disappointed when I heard that, but when I saw the end result all my disappointment disappeared!

Sap483 your flowers are lovely. I really like all the greens.

This is my bridal bouquet. Peonies are my favorite : )

I wanted to honor my Uncle whom I was extremely close with... he was killed in a plane crash years ago. My florist put his dog tags in my bouquet.

Here''s a picture taken from the top of my bouquet...... 3 DAYS AFTER MY WEDDING!!! Still looks great I think! Swarovski crystals in it as well
