Bridal Bouquet Inspiration | Best of GB Events

Hands down our favorite floral design element of weddings is the bridal bouquet. It is the star of the show, arguably the most photographed floral element, and is usually composed of the most stunning flowers of the lot.

We love utilizing our brides' favorite flowers and typically try to keep the bridal bouquet a little more neutral and white-toned, therefore a little more bridal. However we love when the bride wants to inject some color as well! Our goal is to have it perfectly reflect the bride and her style. 

We have compiled some images of some of our favorite bridal bouquets of weddings past below for you to peruse and hopefully garner some inspiration from! Let us know in the comments below which is your favorite!

A Look into Masters Week at Greg Boulus Events

As we wrap up yet another busy Masters week, we thought it would be fun to give a look into the types of events we are a part of. A typical Masters week for us looks like lots of floral design work and deliveries for our corporate clients, as well as a few parties later in the week that we are a part of.

A majority of our clients return year after year and each year we need to come up with different looks, color combinations, textures, and ideas to keep things fresh. Most of our corporate work tends to be a bit more “masculine,” and involves a lot of succulents, green, and white florals. This year we had a bit more color injected into the florals to incorporate companies’ branding. However sometimes we get to get creative, and a little more feminine, when it comes to our end of the week events. This year was particularly fun as we got to be a part of a few more events earlier in the week due to the women’s tournament and finished the week out with a boho chic dinner party for 100.

Ceremony Backdrop Inspiration | Wedding Planning Tips

Over the last few years we have worked at almost every sanctuary in the Augusta area, we have also worked at every event venue! So making each of our ceremonies special and unique takes time and consideration. The ceremonies are a place that sometimes feels overlooked from an event design standpoint but as the reason why we are all gathered together, it is important to make it feel special!

Below we have gathered a few of our favorite images of the different ways we have decorated sanctuaries, as well as how we have decorated outdoor ceremonies!

Sanctuaries

When working within a church, we usually have some parameters to work around. However this does not mean that every ceremony looks the same! We obviously like to pull the florals that we are utilizing throughout the rest of the wedding into the floral focals of a ceremony, but there can be so much more than just that! We love using candelabras, greenery, pew markers, or different kinds of containers to personalize our sanctuary ceremonies.

Outside Ceremonies

We love outdoor ceremonies because they allow us to get a bit more creative when it comes to creating a backdrop for our clients’ ceremonies. As you can see below, one of our favorite things to create are large floral arches for a bit of wow-factor. However we also have done garlands hung in trees with swaths of soft fabric, peony garlands hung from a simple frame, and even modern, sleek white plinths topped with botanicals that were used throughout the event design.
