Rainbow Wedding!

Check it out!! We in the floral world haven't seen a rainbow wedding since the 70's! They did make a brief come back in the 80's but it seems that this may become a new trend once again! I have to say though, I like it done up this way than the way we did it back then. Just Google it sometime and see for yourself. Jamie had a very large wedding. Over 400 guests! Close to 500 from what I heard. She also had a large bridal party with a maid of honor, 6 bridesmaids, 2 junior bridesmaids and a flower girl! Each maid wore a different color so the perfect choice in flowers: All colors of the rainbow together in each bouquet. Jamie's bouquet and her groom, Matt, also had a flower all their own. The rainbow rose! These roses are created with a special dye process that dyes the rose in a rainbow of colors. Perfect for this wedding. Jamie and her mom, Jori, worked to create the arch using a rainbow of silk flowers. I then created a fresh floral piece for underneath to hold the unity candles. This piece was then moved to the reception. In addition, the aisle was swagged with my crystal organza and then filled with silk rose petals in all the different colors. To help keep costs down, they rented my cylinder vases and shallow bowls and filled them with silk petals, river rock and floated a candle on top of the cylinder. Rentals are a great way to get the look you want without investing a lot of money into items you may not ever use again. (Who needs 50 cylinder vases!?!) Congratulations to Jamie and Matt!
