Summer had some very simple requests for her flowers: daisies...ONLY daisies...but her specifics were very specific: Sky blue, chocolate brown, polka dots, curly willow, wrapped stems, white blooms for certain wedding party members, blue for others, brown ribbon for one, blue ribbon for another, polka dot ribbon for her, exact numbers of flowers for each centerpiece and more! It may sound like a lot, but it actually makes my work very simple and clear! I had my list of names and a flower color next to each name and a ribbon color next to each flower for that person. Boom! Everyone knew exactly what was theirs and it made distribution and pinning very clean.
The blue daisies did have to be dip dyed very lightly and carefully the night before the wedding, but once they were dry the construction was pretty straightforward. The theme carried through the entire event with polka dots all over every table, picture, and decoration with daisies and curly willow...blue and brown were a lovely presence in every corner.
What a great way to bring sweet young touches like dots and daisies into a sophisticated theme of blue and brown!
Thanks so much to Steve and Summer for including me in their awesome, detail-oriented aweseomeness!
