Flowers for a burgundy and blush palette
Burgundy and Blush share a bloom, then each contributes its own; the split is what the arrangements are built on.
- Garden roseShared bloom
Roses are the one wedding staple truly available every month, grown year-round in Colombia and Ecuador; field-grown garden varieties peak late spring through fall, so off-season garden roses lean on imports.
What burgundy brings
- DahliaBurgundy
Dahlias have a long field season from midsummer to the first frost and a wide color range, but the cut stem is short-lived: vase life runs about 3 to 5 days, shorter than a rose, so long-lasting describes the season, not the cut flower.
What blush brings
- PeonyBlush
Field peonies bloom a short window from late April to early June; they are still obtainable off-season through Chile and New Zealand imports (October to January) and Alaska (July to September) at 2 to 3x the price, not a hard unavailability.
- RanunculusBlush
Field ranunculus peaks late winter through spring; imported and greenhouse stems stretch it wider, at a higher off-season price.
The metal for burgundy and blush
Burgundy alone reaches for gold and blush for champagne, both warm, so the pair keeps the softer champagne and lets it warm toward the wine red instead of going severe.
This palette finishes in champagne.
When burgundy and blush works best
A candlelit fall wedding, blush keeping the wine red from reading heavy.
Blush is a spring pink and burgundy a fall wine, so the pair lives at a fall reception where blush lightens the deep end and burgundy gives blush its weight.
