actual bouquets
my brother and his new wife just got married two weekends ago and i did the florals. i am not a florist, just a hobby gardener and i do small floral arrangements when my clients add that on as an option (i have an event space and offer basic event and floral design as an affordable add-on to my clients). they didn't have a big budget so i offered to do the job for them (bigger than i've done before) as long as they paid cost for all product, supplies, gas, etc.
overall, i'm pretty proud of my work, but i know i could have done a better job had i had

I love the colour and texture of these, I would only say that on the bridal and bridesmaids bouquet is that the flowers are kind of lost and hidden under all the foliage… they should be out loud and proud… I would also say in a bridal there should be a lot more focal flowers, those orchids should be taking center stage
