Spring Style Story - Shabby Garden

Last year we had the pleasure of creating a styled photo shoot for spring. This is something we would like to, and were planning on, doing every season but unfortunately we have only managed to get three done so far! You can view our Winter Style Story {here} and our Summer Style Story will be up on the blog soon. We created the concept and styled the shoot using our floral designs and hire range and had a wonderful team of contributors who made it all happen. Held on the beautiful Mount Tamborine at the stunning venue The Old Church.

Stationary provided by Follow Studio and handmade soap favours available through Imbue Weddings. The cute cake and treats for the sweets table were from My Sweetopia.

For the flowers we embraced early spring and used loads of andromeda, ranunculus in all shades of pink and white and soft pink roses.

Real Wedding - Alison & Grant

Alison's wedding bouquet was a stunning group of bright yellow vanda orchids with a collar of cymbidiums in white and a green and white striped grass. Grant's boutonniere featured a single gorgeous cymbidium with the grass detail and jute string banding.

Sneak Peek of Imogen's Bridal Flowers

Imogen's Bridal bouquet - a wild purple and green asymmetrical cascade bouquet with peacock feather!

Bridesmaid's bouquets - bright purples, oranges and greens.



Groom's boutonniere - coolest little thing. Arum lily with peacock feather tips and fan tails. The feathers sparkle so beautifully in the sun light.

Winter bouquets with colour!

Winter flowers available in Queensland are not always boring and thanks to importing we have access to some of the most amazing blooms in stunning colours. Some imports like peonies will be very expensive but others like hyacinths and tulips are very affordable. And then there are orchids, readily available, affordable and in so many delicious colours. Our favourites right now are cymbidium orchids which come in white (pictured above right), a gorgeous pistachio green, bronze, yellow, burgundy and more. Other winter flowers for colour include poppies, snapdragons and stock.

Autumn Bouquets

Autumn is a wonderful time for flowers. You might think it isn't as exciting as spring when we have an abundance of peonies, garden roses, lilacs and ranunculi. But I love it for the textural elements and the suprising amounts of bright colours to be had. You can be more adventurous and the modern wedding suits a really exciting and daring bouquet. All of the bouquets in this post can be made with flowers in their natural season or imports and hot house flowers.

Cutest Idea for Bridesmaids

An alternative to a bouquet for your bridesmaids, little vintage tea cups filled with flowers to match your bouquet. For a more modern edge pop a little succulent in there too.

Casual Chic Wedding Flowers

We created some beautiful wedding bouquets recently for one of our gold coast brides. They had a gorgeous, earthy feel with a light, loose style. The bouquets featured glacier white roses, freesia, chincherinch and anemones.

Bronze and Gold Wedding Flowers

Beautiful bridal party flowers we did for a garden wedding last Sunday. All lovely tones of gold and bronze.

The Bouquet is of creme de la creme roses, honeymoon roses, bronze cymbidium orchids, calla lilies and a collar of magnolia leaves.

The stems were bound with ivory satin ribbon overlayed with bronze shimmer ribbon french twisted the entire length and studded with pearl headed pins.

The Grooms boutonniere is of a perfect bronze cymbidium orchid paired with a single magnolia leaf.

Iris Bridal Bouquet

Last week we did the flowers for Stephanies Bridal party. These included white rose bridesmaids posies and white rose boutonnieres as well as a lovely Iris bridal bouquet and matching grooms boutonniere. We managed to take a few snaps of the brides bouquet before they left our studio.

Cherilee and Adam - Flowers

Cherilee's wedding flowers were white and green with purple as a shot of contrast colour. We made a gorgeous tear drop shaped bouquet for her with posies for the bridesmaids. Adam and Cherilee were married in Currumbin last month.

A hand tied tear drop bouquet of Purple Hyacinths, Queen of the Night Tulips, Purple Lisianthus, Purple Freesia and Green Privet Berry with a leaf collar.

The bridesmaids had hand tied posies of white and green parrot tulips half closed, white hyacinth, white lisianthus, white roses, green and white hydrangea and green privet berry with leaf collars.

The centrepieces were of white lisianthus, white roses, white hydrangea and green privet berry. The larger centrepieces also had willow stems and a sprinkling of purple hyacinth.
