Corsages & Boutonnieres

My favorite corsages and bouts to make are simple and elegant. These ones are from the red and white wedding. Simple calla lilies with greens and other small flowers, finished with a ribbon to wrap the stem.

White and Red

Above: Bride's bouquet with red and white daisies, red and white alstromeria, topped with a generous helping of red gerber daisies.
Below: Bridesmaid's bouquets can be simple and beautiful like this one: 4 white gerber daisies knotted with black ribbon.


A great flower girl basket - red gerber daisies, white and red alstromeria, white and red daisies. Easy to carry around and put down, too!


Red and Orange

Black baccara roses, orange-red calla lilies, burgundy orchids, cherry brandy roses, and peach spray roses, and ivy made this a beautiful summer bouquet.

Calla Lilies

Simple and elegant. Above: Bride's bouquet, Below: Bridesmaid's bouquet


Right: Here is an example of a different way that I hand-tie the bouquets; rather than the plain ribbon, I use a complimentary color (or in this case a tartan) and knot it around the handle, adding extra interest and beauty. It might be hard to see because it's mostly navy, but it definitely adds to the overall look.
