Paper Flowers: A Unique Bride’s Bouquet

January 13, 2015 Filed Under: Bridal Boutique, Brilliant Blooms, Inspiring Ideas

Vibrant Flowers had the great and rewarding experience of creating an entire bridal bouquet out of hand-crafted paper flowers. See how we rose to the challenge.

*  *  *

In March 2014, we received an email from a bride who was interested in having us provide the flowers for her wedding in October. Pretty standard, so far. But as we talked more, an interesting dilemma was revealed. She was allergic to flowers. Yes, that’s right, allergic to flowers! Not just one type of flower, we’re talking ALL flowers.
Our Solution? A handmade paper flower bouquet. Vibrant Flowers is not just a florist, we are a team of artists and decor specialists!
We certainly couldn’t have our bride sneezing, tearing up and ruining her makeup before she even got to the altar.

One rose could have upwards of 100 petals!

Each flower is completely unique.

1 paper petal is made of 3 layers.

Each petal was hand-cut and shaped.

We bleached and dyed the tissue to get the colors and variations in  transparency.

We even made our own stamens.

Hydrangea!

Making a bridal bouquet is always special. Being able to spend months working on this bouquet was truly rewarding. It was a very thoughtful and sweet process that translated into a unique keepsake for our bride.

Personalizing your Wedding Flowers

June 23, 2010 Filed Under: Bridal Boutique, Brilliant Blooms

When you get dressed in the morning, when you accessorize, when you define your space at the office, do you strive to make it “you”?  Chances are, you do.  There are some accoutrements you would never want to associate with your personal space, there are accessories you would never think to wear. And of course, there is that signature piece or color you can’t do without; all are elements of a style that is truly your own. You wouldn’t think of being someone who you aren’t, so why should your wedding be any different?

Real Wedding: Alison and Eric at Youngberg Hill Vineyard

August 10, 2009 Filed Under: Bridal Boutique, Brilliant Blooms, Festive Fare, Setting the Stage, Soiree Spotlights, Spectacular Spaces

StoryBoard – Alison & Eric @ Youngberg Hill

We loved this gorgeous wedding at Youngberg Hill Vineyard!  Alison and Eric were so much fun to work with (and such a beautiful couple). We hung a thousand paper cranes in the tents brought in specially for the day, and enjoyed sun during the ceremony as well as some typical Oregon showers during the reception. L Wedding Photography did an outstanding job with capturing the day- check out more photos of floral by Vibrant Table’s wedding floral team in our gallery here.
