NY Weddings Bridal Show

by

Bride & Blossom just attended the New York Weddings Bridal Show, held at the Metropolitan Pavilion in NYC! Our booth was near the wonderful ladies of Bride’s Head Revisited (http://bridesheadrevisited.net/). They are hosting an evening of cocktails and wedding ideas on April 16th, 2012 at De Berardinis Chelsea Salon (http://bridesheadrevisited.net/events).

The catering company, Creative Concepts NYC (http://www.creativeconceptsnyc.com/) was right next to our booth too! Ron Ben-Israel creates the most gorgeous and intricate wedding cakes ever! (http://www.weddingcakes.com/#/home/). Our main attraction for the evening rested on two reversible vases and consisted of purple and white hydrangeas, lavender roses, lavender and purple stock, and fuchsia phalaenopsis orchids and feathers.

Cascade bouquets…Vintage or Contemporary?

by

Today’s brides generally opt for rounded, hand-tied bouquets and think of cascading bouquets as being vintage or old fashioned. We love the look of a well done, classy cascade bouquet. They can be simply stunning if made well. The only thing to be aware of is to make sure that this type of bouquet compliments your dress. If you’re wearing a ball gown don’t even think about it! Check out some of our own cascade bouquets along with a few others we found.

Carnations are Hot!

by

We love CARNATIONS! They have made a comeback and are no longer considered a taboo wedding flower. They look great paired with Hydrangea to add depth to an arrangement and come in so many vibrant colors that work well as fillers. Our personal favorite is using them alone in tight, compact arrangements giving them an elegant, modern look.

Loving this head table we did at a recent wedding! Various heights of pomander balls accented with candles make for an elegant yet understated tablecape!
