Flowers by color–light pink

Some brides are hot pink, while others prefer a lighter shade.  I personally like them mixed together so you get the best of both worlds!  Last Monday I featured hot pink designs so naturally it only seemed right to highlight paler pinks today!  Pink blooms featured in this inspiration board include ranunculus, roses, nerine lilies, lisianthus, Ti leaves, snapdragons, sweet peas, orchids, peonies, gerbera daisies and dahlias.

10 fantastic raspberry/hot pink wedding blooms for Vermont weddings are:

Garden roses, peonies, callas, phlox, echinacea, nerine lilies, waxflower, sweet william, dahlias, & zinnias.  Pair these pinks with chocolate browns, shades of orange and peach or yellow, purple & green.

Details, details, details.  Beautiful weddings are all about the details and Caitlin & Alex had some pretty sweet ones at The Round Barn.  Clockwise from top left:  Each table was named after a different plant species (so up my alley!) and the menu was printed on the back, Curly willow in a birch basket was the centerpiece for the place card table which was lined with a bed of moss & pine cones, Caitlin made moss monograms to greet their guests and super cute “bride” & “groom” signs for their chairs, Candles tied with cedar adorned the cocktail tables, Irene’s cakes by design created 2 beautiful cakes which were the centerpieces on the dessert buffet, Menus were displayed to give guests a peek at what was in store for the evening and finally, a closer look at the place cards punctuated with pine cones.

If you missed yesterday’s post you’ll see some floral detail shots from Caitlin and Alex’s big day.  They were so much fun to work with I am almost sorry the wedding’s over!

Maybe I’m inspired by all the snow outside, but I think white weddings will always be classic!  Here are 10 of my favorite white wedding blooms:

Orchids, roses, callas, lisianthus, dahlias, lily-of-the-valley, peonies, lilacs, hydrangea & ranunculus.  Mix these blooms with each other, add green accents or select another color for a punch like yellow, burgundy or orange if you want to customize your palette.
