Brimming with glossy greenery, cascading jasmine vines, and a cheerful palette of pink garden roses and orange ranunculus, this bouquet, created by Tenley Erin Young for this Rustic Elegant Santa Barbara Ranch Wedding, is pretty much the epitome of happiness that can be held with two hands — and there’s even more pretty from this rustic affair waiting for you in The Vault!
From Tenley… When I sat down with Laura and Connor I immediately fell in love with both them and their vision.They were looking for a little Southern Charm mixed with Rustic Elegance and after going over colors and discovering they loved the idea of citrus infused arrangements, I couldn’t wait to get started.
We didn’t want to get too rustic so we added in tiny kumquats for the pop of citrus in her bouquet. Mixed that with some incredible peach “Juliet” garden roses and cafe au lait dahlias for that gorgeous addition of soft peach and then the variety of orange ranunculus to help the citrus pop. I also added in flowering branches and foliage from the kumquat tree I bought specifically to use for her bouquet. To keep it unstructured I incorporated jasmine vines, which are some of my favorite greens to transform a bouquet into something a bit more wild. With the whites, ivories, and funky pods, the bouquet was unlike anything I’ve ever made and it’s one of my favorites to this day!
