Winter dahlia and succulent wedding

This was such a beautiful wedding, and one if my last of 2013!  The bride's bouquet had an elegant, seasonal, winter touch and beautiful textures featuring succulents, burgundy dahlias, and ivory roses. winter wedding bouquet of succulents and dahlias

 

The coordinating bridesmaids flowers featured silver brunia berries, burgundy carnations, lavender roses, and dusty miller foliage, finished with a burlap wrap.

Winter wedding with succulents and dahlias

Here are the last wedding bouquets of 2013!  And we just got a perfect dusting of snow, just in time!  The bride's bouquet featured huge white polar star roses, burgundy dahlias, and green succulents.  The bridesmaids' flowers included silver brunia berries, lavender ocean song roses, dusty miller foliage and burgundy carnations.  Yes, bringing carnations back!  These were the perfect shade of burgundy and give it almost the soft look of a peony, but a fraction of the cost.  The right tones, used in the right way, carnations are winning me over! winter wedding bouquet burgundy white and green bridesmaid bouquets in lavender, silver, burgundy
