We had a family wedding yesterday, and I bought the bride her bouquet. She wanted tropical flowers in a tight bunch. Here are some shots of the finished product. Please notice the touches of blue.
The large green orchids were flown in from Holland.
Here's one tiny shot showing the groom's boutonniere.

Gor-juss flowers! I adore green flowers of any kind: roses, spider mums, orchids.... What a lucky bride to have such a special bouquet and the groom's butoniere is just a smaller version. I would so love to order flowers from Holland ;) Lovely!

I love all the colors in the bouquet and boutonniere, but I think the blue is what really clinches it! I'm wondering...did they smell as beautiful as they look?
Thanks for visiting my post. =)
What a lovely bouquet! The tropical flowers are very pretty. I love the red rose and the blue flowers that inserted in the bunches of flowers. Best wishes to the newly wed.
Your header is nice. Happy Blue Monday Smiling Sally.
Oh, Sally! They are lovely! I know they must have been thrilled. Thanks for sharing...

Beautiful. I joined in today for the first time!
I love the sandhill cranes in your header. We just moved from FL, and I loved our neighborhood families. I was never able to catch them when the babies were young. So cute!

Well, I didn't post anything blue - but I am happy that I actually got back to posting again. I want to do more China stories and be more regular in my blogging again. (Been a busy summer and fall...and I got way behind on blogging.)
Good to catch up on your blog. :)
Blessings for 2010.
