Best Bouquets
This haute-Halloween-themed wedding featured a traditional color scheme
of black and orange along with citron green. The bride carried a
hand-tied bouquet of 20 orange Dutch tulips, orange-dyed billy buttons (Craspedia),
Alstroemerias, Crocosmia and safflowers (Carthamus)
wrapped with green satin ribbon and finished with a black pin-head stem
decoration. Her five bridesmaids’ bouquets also were hand-tied and
comprised a monochromatic green mix of Hydrangeas, Hypericum,
seeded Eucalyptus and millet.
Distinctive boutonnieres, which the florist labeled for
a professional presentation, perfectly complemented the bouquets.
Best Cake Decorations

Combining the bride’s desire for the striking color mix
of deep red and lime green with a bit of an exotic feel, this
confectionary display took the cake. The staggered square tiers were
adorned with ‘Black Magic’ and ‘Black Beauty’ roses, green Hydrangeas
and green Cymbidium orchids. Additional Cymbidium orchids
and giant Monstera leaves at the uplifted base enhanced the
tropical touch and carried the botanicals throughout the cake table.
