You’ve got a cute bout
You’ll be happy to know our florist still wants to work with us, even after I dropped the ball. When she sent me an email confirming the flowers we had discussed, I realized our flowers were still with the old color scheme instead of the new one!
Oopsies, so the hive shall receive more flower searching inspiration from me. Our florist asked what boutonniere Mr.D should wear to compliment the bridal bouquet and I realized, with no cala lillies in the new bouquet it would be kinda silly for him to be wearing one. The new bouquet will be made of lavender hydrangea, lavender roses, lavender stock, lavender lisianthus and variegated purple dendrobium orchids (but I’m seeing if I can switch in other purple flowers instead of the orchids) with gray berries.
So I thought maybe a little thistle with gray berries? It seems pretty manly, I mean, as manly as flowers can get…
Or maybe a bit of lavender hydrangea with gray berries instead of green.
I dig this adorable cotton boutonniere as well!
I’m also out of ideas for corsages, I’ve been leaning towards using freesia but I’m not sure how sturdy it will be or if it’s in season. For our original color scheme we used Cymbidium orchids and calla lilies for a fair amount of the boutonnieres and corsages. I’d like them all to be a little bit different from each other so that everyone isn’t wearing the same corsage or boutonniere. Now that we’re looking at less structured flowers and I’m getting lost. Any suggestions hive?!
