Leila and Johnny’s Wedding Flowers — A Heartfelt Wedding

 

Congratulations Leila and Johnny!  May your love bloom brighter and your companionship grow sweeter with each passing year.

Leila is definitely an unique bride.  On our first meeting, she already told me that she wouldn’t settle for any wedding flower that looks ordinary.  She then told me that the only interesting bouquet she has ever seen is a bouquet with circular patterns.  Immediately, I knew she was referring to the biedermeier bouquet.  With the biedermeier bouquet, its blooms are tightly-structured and carefully-arranged in defined circular patterns of different coloured flowers, each ring containing one type of flower.

During the rest of our consultation, I discussed with Leila some other elements which can make bouquets more special, such as building them in heart-shape, adding bouquet jewellery, etc. Immediately, she adored those ideas and wanted to combine them with the biedermeire bouquet.

Traditionally, a well-structured heart-shaped bouquet requires using many blooms to form a balanced heart shape.  Using too little flowers would give the bouquet a diamond-shaped look (like the Superman logo!).  This implies that the heart-shaped biedermeier would require a lot of flowers, since we would need many blooms to give the inner-heart a nice heart shape, and even more flowers to form the outter-heart.  However, this would not be an option because the bride has requested not to build her bouquet too big.

Building this bridal bouquet is sure a challenge!  In order to create a well-defined heart-shape, we would need to position each flower precisely at the right location and at the exact angle.  Below, it is a heart-shaped biedermeier bouquet built by another florist, which is not as attractive, looks flat, and resembles a diamond more than a heart.

Now, compare what we have made for our bride (photos below) with the heart-shaped biedermeier bouquet built by the other florist (photo above). Our bouquet is more round and retains its heart-shape. We did not use a lot of flowers as the bride has requested so. We have also spiced up the bouquet by adding Swarvoski jewel picks and crystals to the bouquet handle.

 

Tina and Shawn’s Wedding Flowers — the Romantic Garden Love

 

Congrats to Tina and Shawn!  You two look lovely together~~!!

Tina is a romantic girl, and she adores the purple colour a lot.  I remember each time during our meeting, I would see her in some sort of  purple.  Without a doubt, we have designed her wedding flowers in purple and white.

Tina likes things to look more casual, so she prefers her bouquet to look like fresh garden picks (i.e. a loose-tie bouquet).  Even though we have created her bridal bouquet like a loose-tie, we have ensured her flowers stay fresh by concealing an internal water source within her bouquet.  Also, we have used annabelle hydrangea in her bouquet, which is a white garden species to make her flowers more garden-like.

As a romantic girl, Tina wants to keep her bouquet as keepsake, but she knows the tradition is to toss it away.  So, we have embellished her bouquet with a Swarvoski crystal brooch, which is removed and is kept by the bride before tossing away her bridal bouquet.

For the rest of the bridal party, the couples has chosen to use the artificial calla lilies to keep the cost low.  Who said a single bloom cannot be a complete bouquet?  Check out the bridesmaid bouquets, they are made from a single calla lily.  It is simple, modern, and chic!


The following is the thank you letter from the bride Tina. We understand that throughout the planning process, it is common for the couples to get all kinds of inspiration. At Secrets Floral, we listen to your idea, because your wedding deserves to be perfect!

Lucille and Adam’s Wedding — An Intimate Party on the Lake

 

Lucille and Adam decided to have a memorable wedding on the lake.  Unlike most traditional weddings taking place in chapels and halls, they have their wedding on Showboat, and making their vows over Lake Ontario.

Lucille and Adam have an antique pearl wedding ring, so they have decided to have a pearl theme for their wedding.  To compliment this pearl theme and to keep things formal, we have chosen white and other neutral colour for the decor and flowers.

Here are some photos from the intimate wedding party.


The couple is very satisfied with our professional services. We don’t just do our job, we treat all weddings like they are our own. We literally pour our heart to each and every single wedding, and we always take the extra miles to make each wedding a success.
