Wedding Flower Roundup: Keep up with what's fresh on Vail's floral scene

Jewish ceremony — frame the bride and groom, and they're becoming more and more personalized. People are asking for family heirlooms or story pieces, such as antlers from a recent hunt, to be woven into the scene."Such personalization is part of a larger wedding trend that extends beyond floral arches and chuppahs. Keep your eyes peeled for other personal touches this summer — in charms dangling from bridal bouquets to swatches of treasured fabrics intertwined among Vintage Magnolia's flower-bursting arches.Wild and Wonderful Personal FlowersPersonal flowers are those that designate members of the wedding party, family members or friends with floral hair accents, corsages, boutonnieres and the like. Some personal flowers can be made with a magnetic backing so that they're easy to attach for the ceremony and then remove when it's time to cut loose on the dance floor. Flower choices often complement colors in the overall wedding palette, and color choices for mountain weddings can get wild."Wildflowers and bold colors are common requests for Vail weddings," says Sarah Young, owner of Cedar's Flower Shop in Edwards, which has been in business for more than 20 years. "Bright yellow sunflowers are popular, along with deep purples and reds. Greenery, berries and thistles add texture and color, too. And eucalyptus of all different kinds has become a go-to choice with a fresh, aromatic scent."When floral inspiration hits at any time of the year, Cedar's is also the place to stop in Edwards when you're looking to liven up a space with houseplants, dried arrangements, custom wreaths and c... https://www.vaildaily.com/entertainment/vail-wedding-floral-scene/

Others can be seen in Broken Bow, Idabel, Valiant and Hochatown."I've decorated several businesses in Southeast Oklahoma," Marie said, "including four banks, a phone company, some cell phone businesses and lodges at Beaver's Bend."But Oklahoma isn't as far as she is willing to go. "Every July I go to Dauphin Island, Alabama, where I have several clients. They get decor 'refreshers' each summer," she said.
