THE FLOWERS: #4: J. GORDON DESIGNS

This design is made up of three small, individual pieces in thick-cut round glass containers that together form one main centerpiece. Lavender, green and blue hydrangeas, metallic and black beauty roses, deep violet sweet pea and thistle multicolored roses create a luscious, special feel.

#1: ELIZABETH RYAN

This centerpiece is an example of traditional flowers with a modern twist. It’s a bridal pallette with lavender hydrangeas, bluebird roses, renatte and message roses, Champagne roses and Stephanotis. These flowers are surrounded by variegated lycianthus, white hydrangeas and blue lace flower in a handcrafted wooden box covered in lemon leaves.

#2: MICHAEL GEORGE

This centerpiece is an example of modern simplicity. The trend here is all one type of flower with an accent. Here we have shades of white roses, mini calla lillies and white peaches, adding a touch of blush and fragrance using tuber roses.

#3: STONE KELLY

Another trend is to incorporate grasses and berries into a feeling of wild flowers. This centerpiece is made up of dalias, hydrangeas, sweet pea, roses, mini calla lillies in burgundy, purple, orange, red and lavender colors held by a low (5x5), frosted glass cylinder. The autumnal colors and berries added with lavender create a very textured look.
