True love always finds a way, and that’s especially true for friends turned lovers; Brianna and Steven! The couple celebrated their special day with family and friends along with their two beautiful children by their side. From the venue to the flowers, the day was everything Brianna wanted and more.

Keep reading to find out how SBBlooms Bride, Brianna, styled the wedding of her dreams using the bold and beautiful Gemma Collection.

Price, convenience, and sustainability were the most important factors in a wedding flower vendor for the couple. 

“We of course had a budget to stick to, but at the same time, I didn’t want to sacrifice the vision I had for the wedding, with florals being a huge part of it. I wanted affordability, beautiful flowers, and the ability to repurpose them from the ceremony to reception - all of which we got from SBBlooms.”

It's no secret fresh wedding flowers are a considerable expense. And unfortunately for couples planning during the wedding boom, the price increase driven by supply and demand can be too much to bear.

“I couldn’t imagine paying thousands of dollars for flowers that would inevitably die or be thrown out at the end of the night. It made sense to go with silk, and being able to rent them too was even better!  Additionally, I really wanted to line the ceremony aisle with flowers, and the only way I could do that affordably was with SBBlooms.”

With modern colorfulness in mind, the Gemma Collection was exactly what Brianna and Steven were looking for to create their wedding day vision. The Gemma Collection resembles the natural beauty of an Italian sunset with its warm gold and pink color palette. The collection features a beautiful mix of traditional florals and modern greenery including golden dutchess roses, trailing peach spray roses, cream English roses, along with lush bougainvillea, pittosporum, and magnolia leaves. 

“Although the more traditional, white bouquet is pretty, I wanted flowers that more uniquely represented me. The Gemma bridal bouquet made a statement but in such a naturally beautiful way. The warm gold and pink colors are the perfect combos for a modern and romantic wedding.” 

Bridesmaids used the Gemma Posies while the groomsmen sported the matching Gemma Boutonnieres, which accented the marigold bridesmaid dresses and groomsmen ties perfectly! 

We especially love how Brianna was able to repurpose flowers from the ceremony to the reception. Following the ceremony, the couple moved all Gemma garland and Grand Centerpieces to their sweetheart table and added classic candlesticks for an elevated look. Multi-purpose flowers pulling double duty is such a smart way to extend your floral budget.

Brianna also created the most adorable ring bear presentation. Jeremiah, the couple's 1-year-old son, was included in the wedding party procession as ring bearer in a floral adorned wagon accented with Olivia Garland.

Down to every detail, Brianna planned a beautiful and cohesive celebration of their love.

“Something Borrowed Blooms was amazing! The website was super user-friendly and the exclusive Facebook group so helpful during the planning process. The entire process from ordering to returning was as seamless as possible.”

Congratulations Briana and Steven! We’re so honored to have been a part of your special day!
