April Showers Bring May Flowers

Good Morning All!  I thought since we are getting rained on every other day down here in GA, I would look on the bright side and talk about the beautiful flowers that spring up after all the gloomy rainy days in April!  I wanted to get some examples of different seasonal bouquets.  I am getting married in June, so I have a LOT of colorful gems to choose from like hydrangeas, dahlias, daisies, cosmos, garden roses.  The list goes on and on... I went searching for some bouquets for all seasons for a little inspiration!  If you have gotten married recently, please post pics of your bouquets!

Peonies are a beautiful choice for spring bouquets!  They mix well with other flowers, are available in a variety of colors from fuchsia to white, and have a wonderful fragrance.  http://bridalclarity.com/index.php?/faves/entry/beautiful_spring_wedding_bouquets/
Fall Bouquets are a mixture of rich jewel tones!  Filled with bright oranges, deep purples and fiery reds these bouquets will definitely stand out!  Fall bouquets can also be filled with other fillers such as berries, pine cones, fruit.  You can really get creative with the deep colors and textures in a Fall Bouquet.

Seasonal flowers are a bit limited in the winter, but that is no excuse for a wimpy bouquet.  A classic way to embody the Winter spirit is using gorgeous white roses.  Roses are in season all year round!  By choosing a classic white or pale color combo you will complement the winter season with grace and style!
