I love the trendy fabric flowers so popular now on clothing! Not only is it popular and very attractive in couture, but you can use them for your wedding flowers. Why not have bridesmaids wear a fabric flower on their dress. Mothers of the bride and groom could also wear a fabric corsage. You can purchase them or make them yourself to match your wedding colors. What a fun thing to give your wedding attendants and they can be used after the wedding as a brooch!

Pin or glue it on a purse. Add one to a picture frame. There are all kinds of uses for cute fabric flowers!

Lavender and Cream Wedding

Recently I designed wedding flowers for a lavender and cream wedding. The accents were champagne and gold. The bride wanted the focus of her bouquet to be ivory and cream roses with a touch of lavender and a variety of purple flowers in and around the bouquet. Lily of the valley, sweet pea, and hydrangea were flowers chosen to accent the roses.

Champagne colored fabric and gold ribbon form the wrap for the handle of the wedding bouquet and a modern bow completes the back of the bouquet. A touch of champagne colored fabric was used in the corsages, boutonnieres, and flower girl baskets. Heather was added around the roses giving the bouquet a wispy look as if the flowers were gathered from a garden.

The flower girl baskets have a handle fashioned with the accent fabric and gold ribbon as well as flowers hand sewn from accenting fabric. The corsages have a touch of hand sewn flowers as well.

Great colors for spring or summer weddings and this makes an elegant wedding floral statement! Nice thing about the design is that it will be a keepsake long after the bride and groom say, “I do”!
