so first up in this week's floral inspiration, my dear ladies & gents, is a snapshot of rifle paper co's new lookbook. no, this is not a real wedding, but it is nonetheless lovely. i must say i particularly adore the gilded flowers paired with the second photo and would not hesitate to incorporate them into an actual wedding.

can't decide how to make your bridal bouquet stand out from the pretty blossoms your bridesmaids are clutching? try mixing up the aesthetic: more {and smaller} structure for your maids, more asymmetry and draping for yours!

these table centerpieces coordinate with the above bouquets oh-so-perfectly you'd think that the bridesmaid bouquets had been dismantled and reassembled on tables... hmmm... ;)

i think 95% of the reason i decided to feature this bouquet involves the fact that it features ranunculus. yep.

i have a confession: i am sick and tired of succulents. i mean, honestly - we don't all live in the desert. yes, they are cute, cool, edgy little plants that stand up well to heat, et cetera, but i am so tired of seeing them i could scream. even i, however, appreciate a good giant flower - hence why i actually really like this bride's bouquet!

go on, throw some feathers in your bouquet - you'll be glad you did!

i really like the lush center blooms of this bouquet that are framed with smaller, more fragile flowers and greenery.

okay, ignore the succulent. yes, it's all rustic et cetera, but what's really fabulous is that bouquet - check out the huge dahlias and the sprigs of lime green/purplish pink!

if you don't lavish lush florals over the entrance to your ceremony location {in this case, the church}, you're wrong.

this bouquet is amazing. i love it. it's flowy without being too dramatic for her outdoor affair, has just a touch of whimsy without being ridiculous, and looks absolutely beautiful.
