Purple Pink Elegant Wedding Décor (Part 2)

Still with our Margriet friend’s daughter marriage. Now, the flower arrangements at the bride’s chairs. The model is oval and they’re bigger than the usual ones we make. And the flowers used are pink carnations, lilies Stargazer, roses of Queen Mary, Universe, Avalanche, purple fiji, hot pink gerbera and baby’s breath.

The flower arrangement in front of the psalmist table. It has a waterfall style or looks like  cascade model.  Since it is placed at the front which is the nearest place to the congregation, so it should be able to be seen well from different point of view ie from the left or right side of the congregation seats. And this one is just perfect.

This is the flower arrangement in front of the Jesus statue which is the mirror to the Mary.  The model is vegetatif  modified with waterfall style at the bottom. Look at the two big anthurium leaves on top, they look like wanna to protect the flowers beneath them. And the usage of sprengeri leaves and hot pink gerbera dangling down make it looks natural and flows just like waterfall.

The unity candle flower arrangement.  Hopefully it can unite their love forever. Amen.

The last image was the flower arrangement at the seven candle stand and the décor of the rosary, cross and Bible tray.

It's up for today, and if you're still hunting for ideas you can view more on our glamorous wedding church decor !.

Tutorial: How to Make A Standing Flower Arrangement

Wedding Church Decor doesn't look luxurious without row of standing flower arrangement along the aisle, as if they lead the couple headed to the altar. Those flowers also spread fragrant around it. It’s such a nice fragrance that could bring sweet memories of those who are attending of their youth.

The standing flower arrangements were lining along the aisle seen from the balcony. Looks amazing ya!! (image top left) and when taken from the front door (image bottom right)

Wondering how to make a standing flower arrangement like the one above? Actually it’s quite easy but you have to do it neatly and thoroughly. This time we are going to implement the ‘American Style’ by using grouping technique (though not totally) which means that the flowers were placed in group, but not for the foliage. The leaves were still spreading (European characteristic). Since the theme was ‘all white’, only a little bit green then the flowers we chose  were mostly white such as Casablanca, roses of Avalance’, chrysant-salju, shamrock, white spray carnation, white pom-pom or Billy button flower, baby’s breath and the foliage was philodendron (in medium and small size), ruscus and leather leaf. So, wanna try???

This is how to make a standing flower arrangement step by step:

1.                  Prepare the iron flower stand, then put the wet floral foam (cut into half) on it. After that strengthen it by using wire or plastic rope.

2.                  Decide where you’ll put the tulle white ribbon. Use this as the front side of the flower arrangement, where you put the focus of the flower.

3.                  Then ready to arrange the flowers now. First place 3 stems of philodendron (size M) in the form of triangle. Then place the leather leaf between them so that it’ll look circle now. After that take 5 stems of small sized philo leaf then arrange them above around the top.

4.                  Take 9 stems of chrysant – salju, cut into 20 – 25 cm length each. Then place them by using grouping technique in 3 points so as to form a triangle. Each group contains of 3 stems.

Take 12 stems of roses. Do the same steps just like number 4, but put the other 3 stems of roses at the top.

 .

1.                 Up to this stage, this is what it looks from the above. The shape should be round, otherwise there must be wrong with the way you cut. You might not cut the stems in the same length or not place the flower into the same depth.

2.            Then take 9 stems of shamrock, white poms and spray carnation. Set them all to fill the empty spaces so that it looks full and dense. Do this by using grouping technique.

3.            If there is still empty space, fill it with ruscus leaf, cut the leaves a bit shorter than the flowers. Finally place the Casablanca at the front, then spread the baby’s breath around the flower arrangement.

4.                  Finish. This is how it looks when it was put at the aisle.

 Ok guys, have a nice try!!!

Wedding Church Décor: Colorful Tropical

We haven’t posted wedding church décor for a long time, right? It's because of our busy activities lately, but don't worry we’ll post one in the next few minutes, so keep following us.

Since it’s hot season here, in Indonesia, flowers blooms everywhere and many wedding ceremonies happen this month so Margriet Team's trying to adjust the festive season into colorful design. Look at the wedding church décor in the image above, there were red-yellow-white-green-pink and orange, very colorful.

And the materials used for the altar were anthurium, lilies, roses, gerbera, snapdragon, carnations, baby’s breath and the foliage was florida beauty, philo, ruscus, leather leaf and dracaena. (image below)

White tulle ribbon combined with a pink decorative organza bow on the centre (left image). The chair and pew decoration has simple oval design. The flowers used were only gerbera, daisies, carnation and Kermit (right image).

Flower arrangement on the seven candelabra and in front of Mary’s statue.

The offerings design of bride bouquet & groom candlestand to Mary was simple, too.  It’s a kind of roses posy bouquet in 2 color, white and pink. Simple but elegant.

Tadaaa!!! Here’s the lilies….. the first image is the church aisle flower arrangements, in which lilies doesn’t suit in small flower arrangements like that, however for the main altar, we used white lilies, snapdragon, roses, hydrangea, ivy and SOI leaves.

Wedding Church Decor: Red Tropical for Pentecost

Red is the liturgical color for this day, so for Pentecost this year we also decided to choose red tropical color  combined with other bold color such as orange and yellow. The materials used are heliconia or we call  it as 'Pisang Bugis', anthurium, roses, gerberas, daisies, green puma and a bit of baby's breath only for wedding ceremony decor such as hand bouquet, candle, chair and pew decoration.

This was the flower arrangement in front of the angel which placed on the right and left side of the sacristy table. We decorate the back of altar area only at big events such as Christmas, easter, Pentecost etc so not every week we have a chance to decorate the twin angels.

Because there was a ceremony of marriage a day before the Pentecost, so we also had to make decoration for the wedding ceremony such as these chairs and pews. The image below was the close-up of chairs and pews.

The flower arrangement in front of the Jesus statue (image above) and the seven candle stand which placed in front of Maria statue when the ceremony of the marriage (image below)

The bouquet and candle for bride and groom only consisted of red roses as the request of the bride so we only added the baby's breath to make them look brighter when photographed. The Bible-Cross-Rosary tray (image below).

Wedding Church Décor: A White and Pink Theme

We’re baaack!!! As promised, here’s another wedding flower décor done in white-pink theme. These one's a bit posh and certainly more expensive. You might remember the flower arrangements pictured above from my last post. Yes, this is how their up close look with a white tulle ribbon added underneath. A total of 20 flowers stands were lining on the church aisle that day (11-11-2011). As you can see we used quite a number of flower types such as lily Sorbone, Universe roses, Belavitae roses, Avalance roses, spray carnation, hydrangea, chrysants, local baby's breath, ruscus and ivy.

From the church’s entrance, here are how all the flowers stands look like lining up on the church aisle all the way to the bridal chair (see picture below). Yes, lots of flowers really brighten up the aisle and not to mention exuding lots of sweet scent from the flowers. But don’t forget these flower arrangements cost more than usual, hee..hee..

If you turn around, this is how the row of the flower arrangements look like from the front aisle. And the picture below showed how all of the flower arrangements look from upfront. More than usual, since there were 2 air conditioners put inside the church that day, we made extra two flower arrangements in front of them.

As you can see, here’s a more close up view of the front and side part of the flower arrangements in front of the main altar. Just look at those imported baby's breath hanging down beautifully.

Now the flower arrangement number 2 is the one in front of the Jesus statue, the mirrored version with the one in front of the Mary statue. These cute flower arrangements are in triangle form, with white snapdragon on top and amaranthus hanging underneath.  Look at the pictures below them to see a more close up detail on the flower arrangements and the other one at the seven fingers candelabra.

The flower arrangement number 5, is the one which attached to the wedding chairs also use more various flowers than the usual. It almost looked like a hand bouquet, right? Personally, I really love the colour combination. For this arrangement, we used anthurium, Sorbone lilies, Universe roses, Belavitae roses, Avalance roses, snapdragon, spray carnation, leather leaf, ruscus.

And the pictures below are the detail of the flower arrangements in front of the air conditioners and the psalmist altar… Lovely.

So, what do you think? We really hope this can be another inspiration for you who wants a white and pink theme wedding. For another colour theme, we'll post another time, real soon.

Wedding Decor: The Twins at the Altar

Though we're still in the second week of the Lenten season and there won't be any marriage till the next fortnight, but there's no problem if we post a wedding church decor today, isn't it? We chose this decor since it's rather unique. All the pictures were taken on January 28, 2011.

For today's wedding church decor, instead of the usual long centerpiece in front of the main altar, the centerpiece consists of two flower arrangements put side by side, each arrangement shaped like..uhmm...try to imagine Hercule Poirot's mustache divided into two parts... hahaha.

Close-up details of the flower arrangements in front of the main altar and the psalmist altar. For this wedding church decor we used lilies, anthurium, gerberas, roses, chrysant, baby's breath, a bit of white orchids for wedding chairs, and the foliage is monstera, phylodendron, cordyline, sprengeri and leather leaf.
