The Nest! — North Florida Wedding Florist
It’s time for another “Inspiration Bouquet.”
At a Fantasy in Flowers, we call this one, “The Nest.”
Floral Designer Amy Dwarika created this bouquet using soft pink spray roses, peaches and cream Asiatic Lilies, green tea hypericum, eggshell white Hydrangeas and peacock feathers, white washed curly willow and ivory silver dollar springs.
While the peacock feathers add a nice touch of color and whimsy they are also believed to symbolize the “all seeing” church in Christianity, along with the holiness and sanctity associated with it.
Amy was inspired to create the bouquet by the thought of home and unconditional love–thus the nest of flowers!
Light pink roses typically imply sweetness and elegance. This also contributes to the thought of sweet little birds or love birds.
Amy loved how birds each contribute a piece of themselves to the nest or home.This is symbolic of what a marriage is. Each person joins a piece of themselves to make a family unit.
Wedding planners, feel free to share this blog and concept with your brides! Bird themes are really big right now, especially for cake toppers.
This would be an ideal bouquet for a Spring or garden wedding.
Thank you to those who contributed to this shoot!
