Poppy Wedding Bouquet

This bouquet reminds us so much of Georgia O’Keeffe’s famous Poppy painting. The warm oranges and bright reds look like they just jumped off of a canvas and right into the bride’s hands. This particular poppy wedding bouquet would be an ideal match for a bohemian, backyard or rustic wedding. Think a Claire Pettibone gown, farm style seating and tons of tiny glass jars filled with poppies. Can you say Gorgeous?

A special thanks to Krista Jon  for designing such a whimsical bouquet for us and of course Lane Dittoe for the beautiful photograph. We also adore the fact that it only has three ingredients (Poppies, ranunculus, and Periss)  making it even more easy to create. Be sure to see all of our bouquet recipes here.

As an added bonus, we have the boutonniere recipe to share with you. Simply add calencho, periss, brown pearl succulent.
