A huge ‘Thank You’ to Samantha Gardner for the invitation to create a woodland bridal bouquet – inspired by nature and it’s abundance – for Portland Bride&Groom Magazine
Portland Bride&Groom says: “A bountiful bouquet of sweetpeas, jasmine, star of bethlehem, thisles and ferns works for woodland fairies and fashionistas.”
The seasonal herbs, berries, seedpods and snippets of flowers along with a variety of succulents, lichen and mushrooms create beautiful contrasts and details in this unique woodland bridal bouquet.
