Colorful Utah Wedding Flowers

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.

Colorful floral selections

This summer event was the perfect opportunity to use stunning in season local flowers. While it is possible to achieve colorful flowers in any season, summer has some lovely unique options that are not available year round, such as zinnias, celosia, and the highly adored dahlia.

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!

Who is supposed to pay for the brides bouquet?

April 16, 2024 by Michaela

‘Who is supposed to pay for the brides bouquet?’ When planning a wedding there are many things to budget and account for. When it comes to who pays for what for your wedding it can be hard to figure out how to divide costs between families.

Utah bridal bouquet. Who pays for the brides bouquet?

Traditionally, the grooms family pays for the bridal bouquet and wedding flowers. However, these days when it comes to planning and paying for a wedding, most couples decide to forgo tradition and split costs between what feels fair for everyone involved. For some couples the brides family pays for everything, for some the groom’s family. Some couples decide to split things evenly between their families. Some couples pay for the wedding themselves or slip costs with their parents. What you decide to spend on your wedding depends on your unique situation and what works for you and your family.

As a wedding florist I have had brides who have paid for their bouquet themselves, have had both couple’s families split the costs, and I’ve had the groom pay for them.

Having an open conversation with your family and fiancé before you start booking your vendors is a great way to help your wedding planning process go smoothly!

Siempre Wedding flowers

January 3, 2024 by Michaela

We had the opportunity to be a florist at Siempre Utah. Take an inside look at all the details behind this shoot at Siempre summer shoot where we did wedding flowers in Draper, Utah.

The details

Escort table

Siempre has a beautify corner that is the perfect spot for an outdoor photo moment, cake table, or escort table. We decided to use it for our escort table. I loved this unique idea for an escort table that the planner shared with me when she sent me the inspiration for the shoot. It fit right in with the garden style look we were going for.

The Cake

No wedding scene is complete without a wedding cake. This three tier floral encased cake was a collaboration between us and Marcia of Sweet Cravings. Marcia placed the flowers on the cake, while our team created the arrangement or “flower meadow” (also known as “cake meadow”) surrounding the cake. The views at Siempre are like no other. The outdoor secret garden space is the perfect place to have a wedding luncheon. We decided to setup our cake table in a corner of the garden.

Tablescape

The tablescape was my very favorite aspect of the day. We created large table arrangements to line the center of the table. A stunning ground end piece was placed at the end of the table to tie it together.

I love how the end piece looks like it is reaching up to the table, almost like it is growing out of the ground. I feel that this leans into the organic overgrown feel that we were trying to embody in this shoot.

Ceremony arch

Nothing says wedding ceremony like the classic full floral arch. This was the perfect statement piece for our shoot and we love the lush arch we were able to create.

The mechanics

Metal garden arbor
Chicken wire
Agra wool
Sand bags

Alpacas

The most fun and unique feature of this shoot by far was our two honored guests: Macaroni and Cheese from Peppergrass Ranch.

The alpacas were the very calm and seemed to enjoy exploring the venue grounds. They were closing monitored by their owners, Megan and Tyler, who made sure they were well taken care of and comfortable during the shoot.

The Ingredients

Amnesia roses
Cool water roses
Ocean roses
Sahara sensation spray roses
White Mondial roses
Dark brown lisianthus
Light brown lisianthus
Orlaya
Brown dyed tulips
Cottage yarrow
Black scabiosa
Scabiosa pods
Fruiting raspberry branches

Southern Utah Elopement

December 28, 2023 by Michaela

Earlier this year in September we traveled from Salt Lake Utah where we are based to St George Utah for a Southern Utah Elopement styled shoot as part of a photography retreat put on by Kennedy and Reggie from Kennedy Kiara Photography and Reggie Ann Photo and Film.

We love traveling and were thrilled with opportunity to travel and work with some amazing local vendors.

A PVC pipe arch structure (created by Will)
Fishing line

Our experience

The day started early for us as we had to load our truck with buckets of flowers and all of our tools and arches before starting the four hour drive to St. George Utah. We had a grand time on the way enjoying the beautiful Utah landscape and all of the thousands of sunflowers lining the freeway.

There are pros and cons of every season in regards to being a florist and the difficulty with the warmer months is keeping the flowers from wilting. We knew this would be an issue designing outdoors in the heat, so we prepared by picking up all of our flowers the day before the event so they would be fresh and ready to last. The only thing that we premade before leaving was the bridal bouquet which we kept in a vase on the way down.

When we got to our location we quickly got to work soaking our Agra Wool and wrapping it in chicken wire. We put together our PVC pipe structure that Will had made the week before and attached the Agra Wool to the structure with zip ties. We immediately noticed that the PVC structure was wobbling under the weight of the Agra Wool, so we leaned it against an obliging fence in the parking lot and got to work adding our Huckleberry green to the wool. It was so hot that we opted to leave our truck AC on to keep the flowers in the car cool, as they definitely would have wilted had they not.

It was so unbelievably hot that our speed was definitely affected by the heat, and we were going a lot slower than usual. I was so nervous that the flowers would not hold up because of the heat. It ended up taking us about four hours to complete the broken arch, and we anchored it use fishing line to hold it in place. The flowers amazed me by holding up beautifully, although I made have a few premature gray hairs over them haha.
