Monday kicked off our week-long series on Unstructured Bouquets. In case you missed it, you can view the first post here. You can also find great example photos on our dedicated Pinterest board “The Future is Unstructured” – we will be adding photos featuring each spotlight ingredient day by day.
Today’s Ingredient: Jasmine Vine
Jasmine vine has exploded on the wedding scene and it is showing no signs of backing down. The soft, delicately scented, white and blush colored blooms play off their oblong dark green foliage and create the perfect trail of color. Jasmine vine can be looped, curved, braided, but looks best when left long in a sweeping fashion that adds an air of drama to the design. With its recent rise in popularity jasmine vine can be harder to get now, if not available try swapping it out for green or variegated ivy which has been making a comeback in a big way.
Take a look at the incredible dramatic effect Jasmine Vine brings to these bouquets:
Currently, dvflora.com offers Jasmine Vine with no foliage, as well as Green and Variegated Ivy:
