Ever since we posted our Bouquet Trends We Love last year – I’ve been dying to do another post highlighting our favorite in all things floral!

This year, we featured some truly amazing bouquets on Bayside Bride and our vendors have been creating truly artistic floral pieces year round! Today’s post is to highlight and feature the blossom bundles that captured our attention & captivated our souls!

Oh sweet mercy! This spring inspired bouquet has us dreaming in pinks and creams! Perfect for a rustic bride or your beautiful Southern belle, we fell in love with the wide variety of different blooms (especially the scabiosa pods). Ranging in color from subtle cream, to blush pink, to vibrant magenta, and with small bursts of grey-blue and green – this floral creation reminds us of nostalgic fields of wild flowers growing in southern Virginia!
