  | It's a real art, working with Peonies. These coveted, luxurious blooms can be temperamental. Don't be deceived by the small, tight ball-shape buds they start out as. When they are ready, they will burst open like a firecracker and expose their feminine beauty in furls of scalloped petals. The problem is, once they burst open, they do start to expire, which means you have limited time to capitalize on these beauties for your event. In the wedding industry, the bloom needs to be just right for the bride's bouquet, so selecting them at the perfect stage, and removing them from the chiller at the right time, takes precision. Check out the variety of ways we've incorporated Peonies in some of our past events...   |
 Sweet little wedding at Ardenwood Farms incorporated ever so soft pink and white Peonies against David Austin's English Rose, Juliet, and some local California blushing garden roses, with dusty miller, stock, seeded Eucalyptus, and Queen Anne's lace. |    |
 For this sweet event, we combined pink "Sarah Bernhardt" Peonies with poppy pods, lisianthus, tulips, sweet pea, ranunculus and dusty miller. Photography Credit Colson Griffith (above & right) |   |
   | And some various cheery bouquets with Princess Margaret Fuchsia Peonies, Big Ben and Kansas Peonies combined with Cherry Brandy Roses, ranunculus, button mums, parrot tulips, hydrangea, gloriosa lilies, callas, and spider mums.
