Trial Bouquet for May Long Weekend Wedding





This was a trial bouquet for a friend who will be having her wedding this coming May long weekend. Her colours are hot pink, purple, white and blue. Very fitting for a spring wedding. She had hoped to have all tulips but they can be hard to come by in May. I know it is a spring flower but they are best in early part of the year. So I thought the best that would fit the smooth and uniform look would be freesias. We added calla posies, mini lisianthus and delphiniums in her bouquet to make it different from her maids. It's had to tell but the calla posies have purple centres. They are called "Picassa" and it has to be one of the most unique colours on flowers I have seen. I had asked for white posies but they turned out more cream then white. Fortunately, it worked out great cause her dress is off white, almost cream so it will work out perfectly. Her dress is more vintage 50's look so the cream callas will fit the vintage look.

Her maids will only have white and purple freesias against raspberry dresses. Can you just imagine the colours. It will be so colourful and beautiful.
