Getting Ready to Go To A Wedding!

Bright flowers abound this weekend!  We have the pinkest pink roses and gerbera daisies, as well as a beautiful apricot colored celosia and orange-kissed roses!  These beauties have been "hydrating" themselves for a few days, preparing for their starring roles in one of this Saturday's weddings!

More Succulent Wedding Flower Pictures


Beautiful bride!
 We love this picture of our bride with our succulent-filled bouquet!  Her pretty flowers also featured orchids, freesia, seeded eucalyptus and leucadendron.  Here are more pictures from her reception which had three table looks - cylinder vases with submerged flowers, greenery and floating candles; low arrangements of various shades of green (see if you can spot the artichokes) and tall arrangements on clear glass pilsner vases.  Splits of champagne in green bottles and butter pats on lemon leaves carried the green them across all the tables nicely!

Succulent Boutonniere

I wanted to post this picture of a pretty boutonniere made at Waukesha Floral today.  Everything in this boutonniere is natural; the miniature succulent was growing in our greenhouse, the stephanotis florets, the bear grass and the seeded eucalyptus.  Succulents and this gray/green color is currently "on-trend".

This will be a nice addition to a black tuxedo this evening!
