Coral and Peach Wedding for late September

-
This past weekend was a whirl wind of party activity include 4 weddings but I have to admit that my favorite color theme of the weekend was this peach and coral themed wedding for Bride Kristen. Using green  hydrangeas, peach berries and garden roses, coral Amsterdam roses and accents of navy blue Viburnum berries really made for striking bouquets. The girls dresses were navy so I'm hoping that Kristen shares photos because I can only imagine how these looked when the brides maids carried them. 
 Not only is the color amazing but the texture was awesome on these bouquets also. We were not sure until the last minute that we could get the viburnum berries and had a back up plan of deep blue delphinium, just in case. The berries were so different than what we usually do that it was a nice change for us as well.
By the time the wedding went from bouquets to centerpieces, the centerpieces were much more muted at the brides request with three different styles of centerpieces including lots of candles and they elegant cylinder vases filled with peach hydrangeas, coral and peach roses and peach berries. Touches of curly willow add a pop of fall to the look.  
Elegant tall centerpieces with lush mounds of peach, green and white hydrangeas were another style of centerpiece. The 24" tall cylinder vases were also filled with loops of fresh curly willow. As you can see from the photo below, it was an amazing day at the Jersey shore, perfect for a beach wedding. 
Do you also love the peach and coral color theme?

Never heard of a Grave Blanket? Don't worry, your probably aren't alone. Here in the north east is customary to have a lovely "blanket" made from ever greens and winter accents to be placed on the grave of a loved one.  It's just a nice remembrance during the holiday season to make the graveside look a bit more decorated and festive.  According to Ask.com   "A  Grave blankets are a type of flower design that is used to decorate graves. They are made in a variety of sizes and styles, for example, standard, cascading, traditional, and double wide. Each of these styles has a specific design and flower capacity .
