Crazy for Daisies!
At bloom boxx, we pride ourselves in providing elegant, beautifully designed wedding flowers at sensible prices. In today's tough economy, many brides are challenged with having to carefully scrutinize their wedding budgets to get the most for their money. When it comes to wedding flowers, there are ways to have an elegant and sophisticated look without breaking the bank, and without having to feel that your flowers look "cheap". One way is to use daisies! Daisies are ready available year-round, and are inexpensive. Furthermore, they come in an endless variety of colors. A well-designed bouquet of daisies can be chic and elegant.
Shown here are 3 brides' bouquets using daisies. In one photo, we've created a classic hand-tied bouquet of bright pink gerbera daisies. Gerberas are sturdy, cheerful, and again, come in many colors. Because their blooms are large (3"-4" across), not a lot are required to create a bold, colorful bouquet. They are hearty blooms that make a statement simply grouped, no filler or greenery is required. Furthermore, they are not labor-intensive for your florist.
In the other photo, we've created two different takes on a bouquet of white daisy mums. These blooms are smaller than gerberas; however, when grouped in mass, they look quite elegant. Like gerberas, daisy mums are readily available in many colors and are overall easy to work with. Here we've created one classic hand-tied bouquet, finished with variegated greenery and a simple bow. The other is a more contemporary bouquet featuring a long, sturdy pale grey greenery called kochia cascading down from a dramatic mound of daisies.
Some quick internet research shows that the average bride's bouquet costs $80-$150. At bloom boxx, the gerbera daisy bouquet shown here would sell for $65 (including the jewel accents as shown, only $59 without!). Either of the white daisy bouquets would sell for $39. Save money without sacrificing style - use daisies!
