Baby's Breath In It's Full Glory

Written by Amanda Beaver | Nov 3, 2017 2:00:00 PM

Once upon a time, a tiny flower with a lot of va-va-voom was the star. Welcome to the 1980's, when Baby's Breath stole the show. It was on the ground, in the air, and why not wrapped up in your hair?  

Ok, ok, enough with the cheesy rhymes. We love baby's breath and how it can add a gorgeous, ethereal feeling to your floral designs. Some brides love it so much their whole wedding is covered in it. At Details Flowers, we tell each their own, now & back then. In the 1980's, the petite, white buds reigned supreme! See how they are still champions, from simple to grand, below.

Last week, we did a post about flower crowns, and sadly, we excluded ones designed with Baby's Breath! These beauties deserve a top spot in this post due to their simple elegance. 

Rose petal aisle, you're impressive, no doubt about it, but there is something about this uncomplicated aisle decor that breathes fresh romance into the air. Sometimes, modesty is the best policy.

Go big or go home, right? We could hop on this Baby's Breath bouquet and float among the clouds! Big, fluffy, and full of grace, this bouquet is what dreams are made of!

It's a very modern twist on a baby's breath accessory. This look might not be for every bride, but it makes a bold statement!
