Perfectly Pretty Peonies

Be still my longing heart.

Peonies are such a romantic flower. It was love at first site for me and their perfectly pretty, and totally versatile petals. Their soft, abundant and complex blooms just ooze femininity, grace, sophistication, and a fairytale like charm that no princess bride can resist.


White, raspberry, fuchsia, peach, pink, blush, deep red and lemon are just a few of the colors these Spring blooms have to offer. Pair them with garden roses, hydrangeas, ranuculus, anemones or any other perfered blossom for a perfectly lush bouquet that is, well, perfectly stunning! (I just couldn't resist..)

While I wouldn't encourage you to eat the real thing, these sugary sweet replicas will add just the right amount of magic to your special day.

With such a wide range of possibilities, any bride from romantic to modern can afford to sneak these precious flowers into their wedding decor.
