Lately I've been thinking about the peonies blooming in my mother's beautiful garden, and I just couldn't resist this gorgeously full bouquet. This is my favorite kind of posy–tight, round and mostly uniform in color, but I'm dying to hear–what kind of bouquet do you fall for? Cascades of roses and lilies, pomanders of carnations or a singular composite bouquet?

I am definitely drawn to mixed bouquets more, but there is something so elegant about a bouquet like this one! I'm going to go ahead and predict peonies at your wedding ;) xoxo
ReplyDeleteI love peonies so so much, but they weren't ready for my March wedding. =( I certainly do admire how much volume the blooms give without a bulky mass of stems.
ReplyDeletePeonies are my favorite all-time flower. My mother grows them in her garden. I have fond memories as a child with all those lovelies.
ReplyDeleteOh peonies are just one of my favorites. Of course don't all women love them? ;) Beautiful picture.
ReplyDeleteA garden of peonies? What a dream come true! I carried long, graceful stems of calla lilies & I love (yes, present tense, I still adore it!) my bouquet SO much :-)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous bouquet! I love Peonies! Had them as bouquets and floral decor in my BFF's wedding and the flowers lasted SOOO long! Decided to try and plant them in my yard in a mixture of bulbs, but they've yet to show up. Personally I love a singular composite bouquet, very full!

such pretty pinks!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely stunning!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so jealous of people who grow peonies in their yard - free loveliness!
ReplyDeletevery pretty. I am a sucker for anything pink.
ReplyDeleteI love this bouquet. So simple and elegant.
ReplyDeleteStyle doesn't matter as much to me as the colors. I am a sucker for a beautiful color palette.
I think it is time to bring some of these inside. We used to have them in my mom's garden, too. Feeling super homesick these days. I'm five.

ReplyDeleteLove love love the peonies..they are always in my heart as it was the same bouquet I carried down the aisle...
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a yummy cone of Strawberry ice cream from Dresser Farms dairy. Delicious!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
ReplyDeleteStunning! My parent's home is filled with fresh cut peonies from my Mom's garden and peonies from this weekend's wedding that I was lucky enough to bring home. Our home spells like heaven :)
