The florists at Maison de LaCroix perfectly captured Bess and Austin’s whimsical winter theme in their floral creations, using ivory blooms and nonfloral elements to create elegant, distinctive designs for the bouquets and boutonnieres. For her walk down the aisle, Bess carried a bundle of tallow berries, raw cotton bolls, sola flowers, phalaris, gold button flowers, gold misty caspia and silver brunia. “I loved the idea of carrying out the mixed wood and metal theme into my flowers. I found the most amazing woman by the name of Meghan who specializes in preserved and dry floral design,” Bess says. “She worked to create the most perfect bouquet. The best part? My bouquet was already preserved from the start!”
