Bouquet Breakdown: Colorful Camarillo Estate Wedding Bouquet

Even though we all know we’re hopeless romantics here at SMP, I’m pretty sure this stunningly lush, springy bouquet could melt even the iciest of hearts. I mean, just look at it! Filled with 26 (!) varieties of the prettiest pastel blooms, we got the full scoop on this beauty from last week’s Colorful Camarillo Private Estate Wedding, designed by the equally lovely Crystal Sanford of Heirloom Design House.

From Crystal Sanford… My dear friend Lizzie has one of the most joyful and sweet personalities and I wanted her bouquet to reflect that.  We had so much fun dreaming up her flowers for her wedding day together.  Although Lizzie had a very clear vision of what she wanted the overall outcome to be, she gave me a few key words to help us through the brainstorming process: romantic, relaxed, soft, and cheerful.  Beyond a few specific flower requests, she gave me so much freedom to capture her essence in flora.  Since she showed me a lot of inspiration images of what she liked, I also had her show me things she didn’t like so I had a very clear idea of what she wanted.  Ultimately she gave me the freedom and trusted me to create something unique to her and Caleb. 

I love creating texture and movement in my floral designs and Lizzie’s wedding was no exception.  For this particular wedding I chose a wide variety of flowers and foliage, 49 different varieties to be exact(!)… 26 of which were included in her bouquet.  Using such a variety can sometimes lead to a muddled mess, so I like to focus on the placement of each bloom.  I like to think of each floral arrangement as a painting of sorts, like a composition.  Each flower is so special in itself that I never try to force it into a certain position but rather continue to move it until it is in the perfect spot to shine.
