I am all about DIY silk flower arrangements. I think it's the best of both worlds. Silk flowers look more realistic than regular fake flowers plus you don't have to pay to have them preserved if you're a keepsake girl like me. For my own wedding, I know I'm doing silk flower arrangements. I'm putting them together myself (eep!) to save yet more money. I've looked everywhere for inspiration and found a few things I just absolutely love. I found these lovelies at The Flower Magician:
I love the look of these bouquets but am not big on the colors. I couldn't find anything that matched both the style and colors of my wedding so I turned to LeAnne over at Afloral.com, where I'll be ordering my silk flowers. She designs custom floral inspiration boards with information about your wedding. I e-mailed her with these specifications: I'm planning a vintage themed wedding at my home with the color scheme of chocolate brown, sea green, aqua and ivory. I've attached some inspiration boards and paint swatches that match my color and theme. I'm having the hardest time finding flowers though. I've found a few examples of what I might like in flowers but I do not want anything with pink in it and that seems to be prevalent in vintage themed wedding bouquets. I think I'd like the flowers to be mostly white and cream, some green and maybe just a spray of blue. I don't think I want the brown to come through in the bouquet. I've also attached pictures of a dress in the style I'll be looking for. Can you help me?
