Wedding Church Décor: Blue Theme

Blue hydrangea…. hhmmmm…. just love them!! I know they’re common flowers but I still think they’re beautiful. So back to the topic, what do you think about today’s wedding décor theme? You got it!! blue!!! ahahaha…

You see, blue theme is a bit complicated. If used too much (on the flowers) it will feel like dark and  gloomy, a bit exotic but dark and gloomy nonetheless. If you still unclear, just look at my post of Easter Bunny Flower Arrangement, where the decorator was using quite a lot of dark blue colored flowers.

It depends on your taste, but for wedding I personally still prefer the soft blue color and not too much of it. One example can be seen from picture above, the flower arrangement in front of the main altar boast the white and yellow colored roses but at the top, quite a lot of blue hydrangeas were put close together that made them stand out but not overwhelming.

The one in front of the psalmist altar boast a few pink flowers also, while the blue hydrangeas a little bit hidden at the back.

The Holy Wednesday & The Maundy Thursday

Hi, still reporting for the Easter Holy week. Since the theme of the Holy Wednesday is practically the same as the Maundy Thursday, we decided to let the flower arrangements lasted until Thursday. Besides, it also could save a lot of budget and not to mention our time also. As you can see from the pictures above, the arrangements still have a few of palm trees from the Palm Sunday at the background.

These are the flowers used roses, anthurium, hydrangea, fiji, gerberas and lilies

And the foliage used is philo sellum, foxtail, sprengeri, caladium, dracaena, phittosporum, schefflera, leather leaf and bromelia.

These are the 14 table centerpieces at the hall.

Palm Sunday Celebration

The lenten season had been away and now we’re entering the Holy week and the Palm Sunday is the first day of the Holy week. The Palm Sunday Celebration which Catholic celebrating today refers to the event of the entry of Jesus into Jerusalem where He was hailed by the great crowd with waving palm fronds. (John 12:12-15)

As the name, the Palm Sunday, then almost certainly we use various types of palm, whether as plants or just branches/fronds only. This time we use areca palm, raphis palm and cycas.

The altar seen from the left side. For background of the altar, palm trees with different height were placed as decorative element.

Wedding Decor This Week: A Green Tone Flower Decor

A bit different from the usual wedding church decor dominated with flowers, today we will show you a green tone flower decor that mainly used leaves instead of flowers.

Although not many flowers used, the decor still looks elegant. So don't be afraid to ask your florist for leaves decoration if you want a green theme wedding. Shown here are side and front views of the flower centerpiece in front of the altar.

Details of flower arrangement in front of the psalmist altar. Flowers and leaves used on the decor are white gerbera, chrysant, kermit, schefflera, phillodedron, bromelia and dracaena reflexa or in Indonesia usually called as 'song of india'.

Too bad the floral designers' name is unknown, but I think their ideas to use fresh flower decoration on both ring pillow and bible tray is great! My only curiosity is how they gonna put the rings.. mmm... on top of the flower petals, perhaps?

Wedding Decor This Week: Wedding Flowers orange theme

Tired..tired..tired...I've been planning to blog about this wedding flower decoration yesterday right after the decor finished but ended up sleeping instead heh.. heh.. 4 bride and groom will be married in this weekend in St. Peter Cathedral...Wheeww!!! been up since morning and start decorating at 8 am and there was only 5 of us (including our coordinator Mrs. Diana) yesterday... the morning had been rather cold and gloomy, but my heart started skipping and my mood instantly brightening when these babies waiting up for me...

Yeah, their bright colours and tantalizing smell definitely a mood booster, alright... the theme today is yellow-orange but still in soft tone, that's why we used aliandra roses and light yellow gerbera combined with universe roses, abalan roses, white casablanca, white snapdragon, euro, pink gerbera and hortentia except for the second wedding which asked for a bit of red for bouquet and candle for Mother Mary.

This is the whole view..

Here's the front view of the wedding flower centerpiece in front of the altar, a bit of kristusdoren hanging on either sides and in front, while the white snapdragon placed straight up as well protruding at the left and right tip. White Casablanca was placed at the center at the front as a focal point of view. And the orange and pink roses placed a little bit in group while a few of white roses was spread. Hortensia and song of India were placed to fill the empty space. And if you look carefully, this flower arrangement was formed like the letter of 'm', the initial word of married, or looks similar to bird being swooped down. Very surprising, isn't it? Just kidding...

And this is a close up view on the wedding flower centerpiece. You can see the orange nuance but the colour's not so bold as to detract attention from the bride and groom...

The standing flowers beside the Jesus and Mary statues...

The one attached on the wedding aisle chairs and on the candles...

The one in front of the psalmist altar...

A simple yellow-golden theme Bible, cross and rosary bamboo tray...a bit too simple to my taste but it's well coordinated with the flower theme, I've seen lots of mismatched theme between the wedding flower with the ring pillow and Bible tray before.

Well, I'm off now to do more resting and preparing next post on wedding bouquet inspiration, yes, I do noticed that we haven't done any post on wedding bouquet yet but that will be rectified soon !! there will even be a step by step on a simple bouquet for you who wants to make your own bouquet, so be patient, ok? Meanwhile, I'll leave you with a bit teaser on the bouquets...
