1. Light pink bouquet. This contestant features some sort of flower in wonderful shades of pink and orange and purple, and prefers long walks on the beach.Why yes indeed there are some roses tucked in there, although I think an all whatever-this-flower-is bouquet would be very lovely, as the different shades provide lots of life to this arrangement.
2. Orange bouquet. This contestant features its use of multiple types of flowers (dahlias, succulents, those little beady things) as well as a range of colors. To the question of whether I want succulents, I don't mind them, but I don't want them all over the place either. I'm coming from the desert where we have cacti all over the place here, and I want actual flowers for my wedding. I have heard that dahlias are on the expensive side, so if we chose this color of bouquet, we might have a different flower as the main attraction.
3. Sweet pea bouquet. I love love love this bouquet. Maybe it's the flower itself, maybe it's the color, and maybe it's the fact that it's a nice small bouquet and nothing too huge. I would really like to know the price for an all sweet pea bouquet, and I hope that it isn't extremely expensive.
4. Pale bouquet. Originally, I wanted to have this lovely dusty pink bouquet, but now I think I would rather have the pop of color. What I do like about this bouquet, though, are the little wisps of grass coming out from underneath the bouquet. So I guess my question as far as pricing goes is how much would it cost to have a little green in the bouquet?
So the final order of the flower finalists will be 1, 3, 2, 4. (I would go back and edit it, but I think it would be more trouble than it's worth.) Once we get the prices on these guys, it'll be nice to finally have that piece of budget information.
And now for some dessert table inspiration.
So I figure it's only fair to show you guys what I would like to accomplish in a dessert table for the wedding. I haven't quite decided yet if I want the cake on the table, or if the cake should go on its own table, but here's an image that's close to what I'm envisioning.
And that's that! Have a nice night!
Bouquets!
ReplyDelete1. I could be wrong, but I was under the impression you were looking for a smaller bouquet. This one is really pretty, but also kind of big. Perhaps a smaller version? I do love the colors and the variety of flowers though!
2. I absolutely adore the colors in this one. It also have a nice variety of flower. Like you said though, real flowers as opposed to cacti for your wedding seems logical.
3. Very dainty! I like it. All pink with a little bit of green. I loved the mix of colors in the other ones so far, so I might be a little biased. However, this is certainly your wedding! If the only argument against it is that it's all one color, hardly worth changing your mind over it d:
4. I kind of like the dusty bouquet, but compared to the others with the vivid colors, I'm leaning away from it too. I agree about the pop of color. If it's green in the bouquet you're looking for, the sweet pea one had the leaves in it. That was nice.
Desserts!
Chocolate dipped marshmallows with colorful sprinkles? That is the easiest thing in the world!! What a fantastic idea! I'm almost all for it. Almost just because I think milk and dark chocolate might add some fun variety. Doubly so for those of us who don't like white chocolate...
The raspberry tarts don't sound *too* hard to make. Could be worth giving a try, just to see how it might come out. Again though, white chocolate.
The table looks really nice! It's entirely up to you about whether or not you want the cake on the table, but I do like the smaller signs with the desserts. I wouldn't want people to no realize which dessert is supposed to be which. Sure, some will be obvious, but others? Not so much.
