We love it when Offbeat Brides turn Offbeat Entrepreneurs. I'm sure you guys remember Sandy from her infamous colorful, crafty, hip-but-won't-scare-grandma wedding. Well, since her wedding she quit her old secretary job… and dove head-first into the world of unique wedding bouquets!
She loved designing her own wedding bouquets so much that she now wants to help other funky betrothed-folk find alternatives to traditional wedding flowers. Check out some of her colorful options and find out how to get your custom bouquets, centerpieces, boutonniere and arrangements…
Her business, Robot In Bloom, provides handmade flowers for any special event. The blooms are hand painted and created from parchment, crepe, and tissue papers, so they are highly customizable for any style. And just look at how many different kinds of flowers she can create! The orchids just blow my mind…
Robot in Bloom even offers wedding package deals. The package starting at $250 is a sweet-ass deal. You get…
- The bridal bouquet containing six hand-painted parchment paper roses, five tissue paper carnations, and five mini filler flowers of your choice.
- The groom's boutonniere with two small handpainted parchment roses and three filler flowers.
- A bridesmaid's bouquet.
- And the best man's boutonniere!
All that for the price you'd probably be paying for a real flower bouquet that'll just curl up and die.
Speaking of die… this peacock flower arrangement is freaking adorable. Speaking of adorable… check out Sandy on Great Day Houston showing off her crafty ways for a live television audience.

OMG, these are absolutely AMAZING!!!!!!
Those tulips are gorgeous!!
I’m doing paper flowers for my wedding bouquet, and I gotta say I’m really happy with what I’ve seen so far. It’s so much fun to pick paper, even different textures for different flowers. It’s definitely a bit pricier than your average bouquet, but you’ll have it for the rest of your life 🙂
They look so real!
They do! I would not have known these were paper unless someone told me. Rock on, Sandy!
Thank you so much for posting this! Sandy’s bouquet was absolutely amazing and these are even BETTER!
Your yellow roses with the red around the edges are so awesome!! I love the orchids with the pink spots on them. I can’t believe these are paper!
LOL…I have those shoes in that last photo. And a dress that matches exactly. I’m amused.
Very cool concept.
You do? Those shoes are almost exactly what I was looking for for my wedding (two years ago) and could never find). I’d still like to own them. What are they? Where are they from?
They’re from Payless from…. like, 2005? I haven’t seen them since. 🙁
I don’t know enough words in enough languages to tell you how these are Made Of Awesome. 🙂
I love how the shoe in the last picture is the one she wore to her own wedding 🙂
Absolutely gorgeous flowers! I can’t even tell you how much I love these!
Holy cats, my favoritest colorful OBB has gone into business with these fabulous things?? That’s the best news I’ve heard all week! I am so there.
Awwww… Thanks, SweetPea! You definitley live up to your name!
Bah! Too much awesomeness. These flowers are ridiculously real-looking. If I hadn’t already booked my flowers, these would be the route I’d go. Will certainly keep this in mind for friends.
Wow, these are gorgeous! I know it’s just repeating, but these look so pretty and delicate, and real!
*Edit* Was just looking at the RobotinBloom site, and love the names of the wedding packages. Mr. Roboto FTW 😀
These flowers are gorgeous – and they look so real!
