Lace frames are great for naming your table seen here at Wroxall Abbey.For a more rustic or country wedding use bark containers filled with succulents for your marquee wedding. Set them on hessian and wood and add jam favours for the guests. Yummy! Bark Vase with Succulents Wedding

Gypsophilia, Baby’s Breath, Million Stars {Flower Friday}

Posted on November 18, 2011 by gemma

At Passion for Flowers we love the softness of gypsophilia also well known as baby’s breath and million stars. Gypsophilia is perfect if you are looking for white wedding flowers, it can be used on its own or mixed with other flowers.

Why use gypsophilia in your wedding flowers?

As a wedding flower gyspohilia is great for filling large arrangements.As it is so cost effective gypsophilia looks great used en masse.This gorgeous wedding bouquet had a big bunch of dreamy gypsophilia and eucalyptus making a great summer bouquet. The softness of the grey green eucalyptus works well in the groom’s button hole to finish the look.

Alternatively at Passion for Flowers we like teaming gypsophilia with white avalanche in bridal bouquets, especially if the bride has chosen a lace trimmed dress as the delicate flowers look like lace.

Gypsophilia is lovely with the delicate white lisianthus and soft grey tones of eucalyptus for a summer garland or table centrepeice.Gypsophilia is the perfect filler for large scale work in churches or for wedding ceremony flowers. It looks good in bunches or mixed with other flowers here it compliments the lilac roses, spray roses and purple lisianthus.

At Passion for Flowers our brides love making a statement with silver wedding candelabra for their wedding centrepieces. Gypsophilia gives softness and texture to the wedding flowers.

Gypsophilia is very on trend for classic white weddings and as seen here looks amazing as the only flower at your wedding. We love the topiary trees and extravagant centrepieces filled only with gypsophilia. This simple understated flower can have a real WOW factor when used en masse.

Statement table centres with white hydrangeas and crystals set off the perfect table.Wow factor hanging hydrangea globes add colour to a marquee
Stylish glass bubble vases look cool and elegant with hydrangea heads and steel grass, add blue water glasses for that extra touch.Bell jars add a soft vintage look to a wedding or cake table, jar filled with hydrangea and lace.
Muted tones of pink and green hydrangeas look just great for a country style wedding - we simply styled these in a cream metal jug, glass bottles and cream tea lights continue our relaxed take on the country wedding.At Passion for Flowers we love using hydrangeas in rustic bark containers, the big blooms fill the space and just need the addition of a few extra flowers for a great wedding table centre.

To end at Passion for Flowers we just had to share this image captured by the Barbers of a summer vintage tea party with tall candelabra with blue hydrangeas, herbs and a mix of vintage roses. The tones picked up by bunting by the bride’s family and soft pashminas on the chairs. What a great alternative to chair covers!

Hope we have inspired you with our hydrangeas
