Peonies Wedding Bouquets

Peonies are absolutely beautiful. They are lush blooms that grow in red, shades of pinks (from light pink to hot pink, white and cream. They are so popular, most want them but not everyone can have them, as they have a limited season. Theses beauties are grown outdoors, and while they can be imported there is still a limited growing season in other countries.

After all the peonies have disappeared a great contender is the garden rose. They are fragrant and beautiful and can often look like peonies. Just remember that they cost a bit more than roses but if the flutter flower look is something you want for your wedding than the garden rose is a perfect flower.

Can you tell which image above does not include peonies?

Wedding Review Google:

I Love Nice Stems!! For our September 2010 wedding i visited many a florist trying to find the right fit. Margarite right away makes you feel as though your wedding/event is special and unique.. and she is just as excited as you are, it was such an amazing experience! At many other places you are treated as 'just another' wedding. Margarite takes the time to listen to your ideas and brainstorm on different ways to make that a reality. I for one wasn't 100% sure about what i wanted in regards to my bouquet and she took the time to help me figure that out. I know everyone keeps saying this, but it is so true.. Margarite goes the extra mile!! Any question i had or additional idea i wanted incorporated was always answered right away and she was always happy to do it. At the end of the day the most importantt thing is that the flowers were STUNNING!!! By ... For our September 2010 wedding i visited many a florist trying to find the right fit.

At the end of the day the most importantt thing is that the flowers were STUNNING!!! By far the most compliments were on the bouquets, centerpieces etc. It really captured the look i was going for and everything was exactly as we had spoken about. I would recommend Margarite & Nice Steams a million gazillion times over! Any friend of mine requiring floral decor will be sent to Nice Stems!

Black and White Flowers - Weddingbells Magazine

Black and white is awesome as a wedding color scheme. It is classy, and modern chic. So when Weddingbells Magazine asked Nice Stems for bouquets, centerpieces and boutonnieres that incorporated these colors we sent them a bouquet with chocolate cosmos, white gerberas with dark center and commercial mums. The centerpiece was similar in style using hydrangea and gerberas with dark centers in a high gloss black container (will post pics at a later time). The boutonniers were simple finished with black satin a nd a small detail. Although we were limited as there is not a huge amount of flowers that appear "black" the flowers we selected worked out beautifully. Happy viewing!

OLD MILL WEDDING - ROXANNE + JEFF - REVIEW

We had the pleasure of working with Roxanne and Jeff's wedding. Their ceremony and reception was held at Old Mill in Toronto. We loved this couple they were so happy to get married their day was perfect and I loved reading this review on Google.
- Thanks Roxanne and Jeff

"Margarite ROCKS!‎‎ Margarite did an AWESOME job for our wedding! The selection of flowers were absolutely spectacular. We had requested for a green apple themed wedding and Margarite delivered with creativity and spot-on sensibility. Everything she did exceeded our expectations: the two large floral arrangements near the alter and the two green apple filled white urns were at once whimsical and classy, the centerpieces on the welcome table and dinner tables were contemporary and romantic, and the soft petal arrangement on the cake table is simple yet stunning. Margarite created the perfect ambience that we had hoped for – sweet, romantic and very classy. We feel extremely grateful and lucky to have worked with Margarite. Not only for her incredible talent, but also for her warm and caring personality - she very kindly and calmly stepped in to help out with small details such as pinning the corsages/boutonnieres on the bridal party when we were all going crazy with nerves. Thanks very much!!!"

WEDDING REVIEW

28 Nov 2010
Nice Stems is indeed amazing, and we would concur with the other reviews in saying that Margarite really does go the extra mile - which shows in her beautiful work!!! Everyone raved about our flowers - particularly my bouquet (red, black centered anemones with black feathers), and I coudn't have been happier with them! Margarite is not only super professional and creative, but is also lovely to work with, and her bubbly personality is infectious! We would definitely recommend to other couples - her flowers and artfulness really added an amazing touch to our October 2010 wedding! Erin

LIBERTY GRAND WEDDING - REVIEW

I Love Nice Stems... I Love Margarite...‎‎ What can we say about Margarite but that she is just amazing.... from the moment we met her, we knew we were going to have a beautiful wedding. We just fell in love with her positive happy personality and felt so relaxed knowing that she was going to take care of our special day. We met with few florists before meeting Margarite but she was the only one who listened to everything that we had to say and came up with something so elegant and extravagant with our simple ideas. She is just amazing. She will sit with you until your vision comes to life. We didn`t even realize we could come up with something so beautiful but her creative suggestions helped us to picture everything we were going to see on the day. She was so organized that we had no questions and doubts throughout the whole process. We fully believed from the beginning that everything was going to run smoothly and that we were going to have the most beautiful wedding. We wish we could put up more pictures because our words can`t fully explain the stunning work that she did on our wedding day. From the full gorgeous bouquets to the stunning ceremony arrangements and spectacular centerpieces... she really made our wedding beautiful. Thank you Margarite from the bottom of our hearts. You truly were amazing!
