In the past I have been asked to make wedding cake toppers for that special day.
When I was a vendor at Crafty Wonderland I was approached with a new request. I was asked to do the flowers for a wedding..out of reflector flowers!
Totally fun project and the bride was all about color and whimsy with this request. I was tickled that she asked for party birds in her bouquet.
The bouquet for the bride.
The bride requested a different color bouquet for each bridesmaid.
I bound each bouquet with ribbon for carrying down the aisle.
I even did boutonnieres for the fellows.
What a fun wedding day it must be! Wishing the bride and groom many years of happiness!
That must have been a super fun wedding! The bouquets are fantastic with the birds.

What a fun! Definitely a festive look. And the bouquets can remain keepsakes long after the wedding is done.

How much fun is that? Wish I would've been that creative! I just love that idea to be different and I bet you are just thrilled! The cake toppers are just darling too. Too bad I didn't know you 28 yrs ago :-)
Thanks for sharing!

Laurie, they turned out just fab. I can imagine these flowers will be the talk of the event and what wonderful keepsakes they will be! Darn, I wish we could see wedding pictures.

How fun!
Have you seen Flea Market Style's wedding magazine? There are some fun ideas in it. It is fun to see how creative people can be with ordinary materials. Your house would be fun to see in Flea Market Style! Or in that ebook that I am always bugging you about. :0)

Your cake toppers are just the cutest things in the world! The flowers for the wedding are so cool and I love that she wanted the "party birds" in hers. I would love to meet that bride...she must be a kick in the pants!!

Oh - you did a wonderful job! The cake toppers are just so cute. What a fun bride! I would love to see her wedding dress - was she as creative with everything else as she was with her flowers?

Laurie, I cannot believe how much fun you are!!! I have a daughter who may be getting engaged soon and loves Alice in Wonderland. Would an Alice themed cake topper or decoration be out of your realm? It's something to think about anyway. Your creations delight me to no end!!

Oh my gosh!!!! This is so "out of the box"! My favorite pieces are the boutonieres. I would love to see pics of this wedding! I'm so curious about the dresses and the other quirky little touches that this bride put into her wedding!
She couldn't have picked a better artist to make her bouquets! Great Job!
