The Bridal Bouquet

We really wanted the flowers to stand out, the bride says. They hopped a plane a few days before the ceremony specifically to select local blooms -- the brighter the better. Sharlene's bouquet captured the distinctly tropical tone as purple and white orchids, orange stargazer lilies, purple irises, birds of paradise, and gardenias all came together. Instead of a typical veil, Sharlene's hairdresser gracefully wove a dozen purple and white orchids into her hair.
