Colorful Wedding Flowers
If you are a colorful flower lover you are in the right place! These vibrant Utah wedding flowers spoke right to my heart. I had a wonderful time arranging the pieces for this event and worked with some lovely vendors.
Neutral flowers will always be beautiful and lovely, but colorful flowers really speak to my heart and usually illicit more of a reaction from guests. I believe you should follow your heart, and these arrangements are definitely for the those who are unafraid to shy away from attention. These flowers are definitely for the bold.

The Tablescape
Orange halves, colorful taper candles, beautiful custom menus, and gorgeous florals made this tablescape! Heavily decorated tablescapes are becoming increasingly popular. Taper candles and fresh fruit are poplar items for tables. Lush centerpieces really take it to the next level, but bud vases are a lovely option if you are looking for something more simple.
A Unique Venue
The Chase Mill at Tracy Aviary is the perfect venue for those looking for a versatile venue that offers plenty of outdoor spaces as well as the Mill. If you are a nature lover this venue is perfect. It offers a lot of lush natural greenery, natural arches, large trees, and of course the wildlife.
The bridesmaids
The bridesmaids held increasing popular floral baskets with white flowers to complement the colorful dresses. Floral baskets are a unique alternative to bridesmaids baskets and they have the benefit of being able to hold a water source to keep flowers hydrated on hot summer days.
The bridal bouquet
The bridal bouquet was made in the oblong style, perfect for framing a wedding dressing and allowing each flower to show to it’s full advantage. Many brides opt for alternative shapes to the traditional round. The oblong is my personal favorite!
