Etsy :: Little White Dresser

Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009

Headbands can be covered in jewels to stand out or they can be designed to add a soft but dramatic  touch to your attire.  I came across these flowers and designs and I had to share them with everyone.  They do a great way of keeping the overall look of the wedding dress romantic.  They add enough style to notice but they don’t overwhelm the dress.

The large flower headband below is one of the more dramatic headbands offered at Little White Dresser.  This is for the chic brides who are looking to stand out in a trendy and fashionable way.  Keep your dress simple and let this be the focus of your attire.  One detail I love the most is how her headband complements her bouquet so well!

Wedding Flowers :: Lily of the Valley

Friday, September 18th, 2009

For a much lighter, whimsical feel to your wedding I love these Lilies of the Valley.  Incorporating them into your bouquet will give it a much fuller look while keeping a romantic touch.

Mixing them into both the grooms flower and your bouquet will help tie you together in pictures.

I love how this cake took the Lily of the valley and incorporated it into the design.  The green leaves against the white icing makes the decoration stand out even more.  This is one small additional detail that will help incorporate a consistency throughout the day.

Who can resist this dramatic orange and midnight blue plant that resembles an exotic bird peeking out from the broad leaves.  A bold and simple style is my suggestion to you when you are using this flower at your wedding.  I would love to see pictures of how you incorporated this flower into your wedding day!

Gerbera Daisies are my happy flowers. Design your wedding with bright colors and Gerbera Daisies to complement.  These flowers work perfectly to guarantee your centerpieces and bouquets will stand out at the wedding.

I adore these centerpieces, the lime green in the limes at the bottom of the vases adds a fun and unexpected twist to the flowers.  These work great for spring and summer weddings, these flowers bring a certain attitude to the event.

I love these flowers for the guys, but I want to warn you…talk with your florists first.  These flowers don’t always hold up for a long period of time without water.  Florist have a variety of tricks to make these last as long as possible!
