Floral Hair Pieces

I often have brides request a single flower or orchid to wear in their hair, like the one below I did for a recent June Bride.  I think this look is simple and stunning but it seems like larger more dramatic floral head pieces are making a come back, for better or for worse, the verdict is still out for me.

This month the Chapel designers challenged us all to design a floral head piece and blog about it.  Lucky for me a local photographer,  contacted me last month to provide a floral halo for her model to wear for an outdoor vintage photo shoot.  Although I'm not convinced this look will start making a come back in bridal wear I still would love to see more brides wearing flowers in their hair.

The floral headpiece below was made from Israeli ruscus, ivy and white and purple spray roses

 This more simple and understated halo was made from mini green hydrangea.
