We did a unique bridal bouquet several months back: it was made of all white wax flower. Wax flower in and of itself is not an especially uncommon bloom – it’s typically used as a filler-flower, much like you would use baby’s breath or Caspia. It’s very pretty, it’s hearty, it’s fairly inexpensive and it comes in white, pink and purple/lavender and sometimes can be dyed to a royal/navy blue. What made this bouquet so unique though was that it was used as “the” flower for the entire bridal party [bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages and the flower girl]. To be honest, I was a bit skeptical as to how it would look as a stand-alone bloom. In a word….it was beautiful! [the fact that the bride was quite stunning herself didn’t hurt!] Thank you to Jade + Matthew for sharing these images. The “wax-flower wedding” as I called it was featured on the Style Me Pretty blog – so I must not have been the only one that thought it was a winning look!
