Enchanted Garden Wedding Theme Floral Inspiration - with Amie Bone Flowers

Amie Bone Flowers has captivated brides-to-be at The National Wedding Show this season. The theme was “Enchanted Garden” and the floral inspiration is absolutely breathtaking. It took a nod from Shakespeare’s Midsummer’s Night Dream and Frances Hodgson Burnett’s The Secret Garden. PS: at the end of this post I've gather together some watercolor invitation templates and floral illustrations so you can re-create this floral look on your bridal shower and/or wedding invitations.

Twenty-two members of Amie’s team committed over 2,000 hours to transform her vision into a floral masterpiece. Are you ready to me amazed?

Amie’s installment featured:
• 1,500 hydrangeas
• 10,000 roses
• 500 delphiniums
• and other beautiful blooms that were flown in from around the world {Holland, Africa, Columbia, America and Canada.

If you're looking to re-create this watercolor floral style on your DIY Wedding Invitations, you will love these invitation templates and downloadable floral illustrations. {simply click directly on the photos to see more from each design shown}

BaubleBar & Paper Fashion join together for an Art & Fashion Collaboration

Looks like this week is turning into an art one. Yesterday I shared two gown sketches from the upcoming Anne Barge Collection and today it's all about watercolors. Katie Rodgers is known for her whimsical watercolors of elegant fashion that can be seen on her site, Paper Fashion. She has now teamed up with BaubleBar to curate a new collection that is the "epitome of classic glamour with a twist".  In this new collection, you will find sparkling rhinestones and timeless pearls along with pops of color. You will find necklaces, bracelets and earrings that retail from $28-$42 - making this gorgeous collection super affordable. These jewelry designs are perfect gifts for bridesmaids, mothers of the bride and/or mothers of the groom, as well as the bride herself.

And, I had to finish off this post with the latest watercolor sketch from Katie that she posted yesterday. I'm in love with the black and pink dresses. Plus, it even features touches of glitter. How can you not love that?
