Wedding Wrist Corsage

I recently had a bit of down time and with the weather outside being less than desirable, what's a girl to do but have a 'Sex and The City' tv marathon. It was while I was rediscovering some episodes i'd not seen before that i noticed Carrie's love of wrist corsages... pretty little flowers adorning her wrist and accessorizing her stylish outfits.

Whether a fresh full rose or a modern silk rosette, a wrist corsage is a fashionable option for a mother-of-the-bride, bridesmaid or flower girl. With so many styles to choose from, this glamorous feminine touch is perfect for a vintage, country or modern styled wedding.

Floral Chandelier

I was inspired recently by a beautiful picture that Brisbane florist Roberta of Green and Bloom shared with her followers. The picture (below) showed a simple chandelier that she had dressed with fresh flowers and transformed into a breathtaking showpiece.

Simple chandeliers decorated with fresh floral blooms can give a reception room or marquee a whole new life. They look amazing and create a romantic focal point to your reception area, especially if you have booked a ballroom that perhaps has a few features that are looking a little tired. Whether it's a simple addition of a few flowers or an elaborate creation, floral chandeliers are a unique and impressive feature for your wedding.

Flower Crowns

It seems the English really love their crowns, and they don't necessarily have to be gold or diamond encrusted either. Following the lead of English brides, Kate Middleton and Kate Moss, who both had their flowergirls wear floral halo's at their recent nuptials. Flower crowns are a super-pretty hot trend.
