This time of year, generally brides switch into autumnal colors….radiant with golden yellows. burnt oranges, and russet.  This year the early autumn weddings have been more about muted tones of coral, peach, soft green, and silver.

More than that. it’s all about texture, texture, texture. Pictured below is Grace’s bouquet. It is filled with an abundance of interesting texture, from the spikey Brovelia to smooth brown fern curls, ruffled ‘Peach Peony’ roses from Peterkort Roses to fragrance freesia and simple calla lilies. All these different textures come together to create a soft romantic northwest look. To top it off, a birch pole creates the handle of the bridal bouquet. Stunning don’t you think?

Kristin’s bouquet below creates a different story.  A Juxtaposition of materials, classics meet woodland in a wildly wonderful way. Soft ‘Vendela’ roses from Peterkort Roses are paired with freesia, sweetpeas and hydrangea; all the classics. Soft dusty miller, poppy pods, and japanese anemone pods; the woodland bits.

A close up of Erin’s bouquet reveals all kinds of wonderful things. Here in a more casual garden feel for early autumn, roses are featured. ‘Peach Peony’ ‘Talea’ and ‘Alexandra’ roses come together with ‘Autumn Joy’ sedum, dried poppy pods, scabiosa pods and ‘Rabbit Foot’ ferns. Almost like you just headed out in a beautiful garden and gathered all your favorites together. Stunning yet perfectly casual for an afternoon wedding.

This tribute was ordered by a family for a well-known barber in our area. We were not surprised, when they called and ordered a Barber Pole made out of flowers. You see, that is our specialty. We like doing floral sculptures! We have created logos out of flowers, smiley faces, pather paws, why not a Barber Pole? Erik headed to the hardware store. A little of this, some of that, a few flowers….and LED Light for the top…Viola!

This past weekend, we had 3 more weddings. Dustin and Kristin tied the knot in the Rhodedendron Garden in Portland. She chose beautiful flowers in deep shades of purple with accents of lime green. Turquiose ribbon offset the colors and balanced the addition of peacock feathers!

Blooming oregano, scabiosa, hypericum, seeded eucalyptus and feathers add contrast and whimsy to the completed bouquet!

Ami’s beautiful bouquet created by Julie consisted of buttery ‘Alexandra’ roses, old fashioned roses, dahlias, sage green hydrangeas, calla lilies, phalaenopsis orchids, fern curls and crespedia balls. Simply soft and lucious.

Julie also created stunning vibrant bouquets for her attendants that coordinated in shades of yellows and a touch of blue. Dahlias, roses, tulips and veronica completed the look.

Because we are all about detail, not a step if missed when it comes to the smaller parts of a wedding. Although they are small, we find the boutonnieres and corsages to be just as important in the overall wedding. Check out these simple and fun boutonnieres Julie created for Ami’s guys…

Beautiful simple bubble bowls brimming with hydrangeas, roses, and dahlias in lemon filled glass bowls and curly willow swirled bowls completed a stunningly simple outdoor  reception.

Each year, we create beautiful tropical arrangements for the Hawaiian Festival in Esther Short Park. Sari Aho of Aho Construction graciously pays for our creations each year! This year, we pushed the limits of our creativity by building box structures that emcompassed fabulous flowers such as anthurium, oncidium orchids, heliconia and fabulous tropical foliages. To add drama, one design was created vertical from the ground up and the other was created vertical hanging from the top down! Great fun!

Julie’s garden is in full swing, which means, each and every wedding we do, incorporates a little bit of her amazing love of gardening and funky cool flowers and northwest stuff!

Here’s a prime example of what we can do, thanks to Julie and her fabulous garden of wonderment! (Each and every flower came from her garden!)

Our greatest passion in design currently evolves around a northwest organic look. Not every bride is suitable to suggest such a look, but when they come to us and say they love anything “weird and succulent” we know it’s time to pull out all the stops!

Morey and Jillian tied the knot at Mcmenamin’s Edgefield this past weekend. With colors of deep yellow white and sage green, we created textural bouquets for her girls and her. Dahlias, kangaroo paws, hydrangeas, succulents, billy balls and fragrant freesia were all incorporated.

Her bouquet of the same stunning varieties also incorporated a stunning surprise element, phalaenopsis orchids. This avante garde combination made her bouquet extra special!

This past weekend, we created vividly wonderful bridal flowers for Angela and Steve. Members of one of our weekly church deliveries at The Church of Good Shepherd in Vancouver, they knew where to go to get incredible flowers for their special day!

Angela selected miniature gerbera daisies, calla lilies, iris, and hydrangea among other wonderful touches. Her colors in fuchsia, yellow, purple and lime green were anything but bland!

Erik decided to surprise her with a few fun touches such as wild sweetpeas (provided by Julie) trachelium and stunningly bright verbena!

A simple and stunning cake was created by Megan at Cakes by Design which we embellished with all of the wonderful flowers incorporated into Angela’s wedding theme.

After much work, stress, and a little sweat…Erik has successfully passed his PFDE (Professional Floral Design Evaluation) and has been invited to join AIFD. Next July, he will be inducted into this prestigious group in San Franscisco. His next adventure will allow him to stay aware of all the new trends and techniques that make Flowers Washougal, what we are…Extraordinary!

PFDE Testing for AIFD

Over 100 people tested to become members into AIFD this year. Erik is one of many that passed his testing and will invited to join AIFD next summer! Here are some of the designs that he created for the test.

Stunning contemporary yellow rose bouquet with turquoise wire beads and bobbles	Erik created a unique sympathy design suitable for the funeral service for someone that loved the beach. Calla lilies, eremuris, roses, succulents, shells and more were incorporated into this fabulous design!
Erik created a modern linear design suitable for the home with gladiolus and steel grass framing a focal emphasis of sunflowers. Petals of sunflowers lift away as if to float to heaven	This design, although not one of Erik's personal favorites, was part of the tested which allowed judges to see if you could duplicate a design. Each contestant was given a photo in which they had to duplicate everything about the design.

This category was for an "over-the-shoulder" adornment...Erik created a whimiscal corsage of Calla lilies, billy balls, hypericum, live wire and gems appropriate for a wedding.
