Summer Garden Bridal Bouquet

Here's a beautiful summer Bridal Bouquet.  A Hand-Tied masterpiece that looks as if it was picked straight from the garden.  The fact is that is where all the flowers for this design were found.  The inspiration was the cool purple hues in the Hydrangea.  The Deep pink asters give it great contrast allowing the dark reddish Echinacea Cones to blend into the scheme, adding its unique texture to the bouquet.  The blowing ornamental grasses swayed in the wind adding a nice movement in the garden. I have taken that movement and added it to this Summer Garden Bridal Bouquet, looping the grass along the sides.  The grass drifts to bottom embracing the stems in a simple tie that finish off this hand-tied Bouquet.
