Flowers

I wanted our bouquets, boutonnieres and corsages to feel earthy and whimsical. The color palette was a mixture of green and white. I worked with Karen and Jorge at Aria Floral Studio in Westmont, IL to bring the vision to life. The end results, as you can see, were amazing! Because my favorite flower, the ranunculus, was not in season in June, we compromised by using a select number of white stems in my bouquet and Luke's boutonniere. Other flowers used included white peonies, green hydrangea, white freesia, green painted billy balls, green hanging amaranthus & green hyperium berries. In retrospect, I'm so happy that Karen talked me into using the freesia because now whenever I smell it I'm reminded of my wedding day. Sounds cheesy, I know, but what a happy association to have with a flower!
