The wedding flowers are wonderfully stylish accessories to the range of couture gowns on show. Inspired by the latest trend for coastal rustic bouquet designs, Mondo Floral Designs has collaborated with some of the Sunshine Coast’s best stylists to create this bridal look.
The styling accentuates the neutral tones of sandy beach shores. Their collection of bespoke bouquet designs showcases bountiful blooms with rustic earthy accents and wild and whimsical foliage.
An increasingly popular floral trend is for gathered long stems bouquets. The team achieves this look with hydrangeas and dahlias arranged in a wild beach bouquet with hints of rustic foliage.
Paying tribute to a smaller style bouquet, they have designed a romantic handheld posy with soft vintage pastel accents and dainty blooms.
For a bohemian style, the team has created an oversized bouquet of natives with intricate foliage and flowering fillers.
Mondo Floral Designs’ arrangement of Phalaenopsis orchids, roses, seasonal bulbs and cascading greenery creates a white on white coastal glamour feel.
Overall, the shoot reveals just how versatile beach bridal can be. Its soft and romantic motifs reveal a more gentle side to the style and inspire a new kind of sun-kissed and super feminine goddess to emerge!
