Why Choose Oxblood & Sage?

When you think of winter or Christmas weddings, bright reds and vibrant greens probably come to mind. While that's a beautiful and classic look, many couples are looking for something that feels more personal and unique. The Oxblood & Sage palette offers a richer, more nuanced alternative.

This color scheme is perfect for a rustic, vintage, or bohemian wedding style. The deep, wine-toned oxblood shades bring a sense of drama and romance, while the soft, muted sage greens add an earthy, natural feel. It’s a combination that feels warm and inviting, perfect for a celebration filled with love and joy. Plus, it photographs beautifully, adding depth and texture to your wedding pictures.

What’s Inside the Oxblood & Sage DIY Flower Kit?

Our DIY Flower Kits are curated to give you a gorgeous, cohesive look right out of the box. Each flower is chosen not just for its beauty but also for how well it complements the others in the collection. Let's meet the stars of the Oxblood & Sage kit.

Burgundy Cremon Mums

These are the heart of the oxblood palette. Burgundy cremon mums are large, full-bodied flowers with layers upon layers of rich, dark red petals. They add a wonderful sense of fullness and luxury to any arrangement. Their classic shape makes them incredibly versatile, perfect for everything from your bridal bouquet to larger centerpiece arrangements. They provide a strong, beautiful base color for the entire theme.

Earl Grey Roses

Yes, you read that right! Earl Grey roses are as unique and lovely as they sound. These specialty roses have a beautiful lavender-grey hue with hints of pink and tan. They introduce a soft, smoky element that perfectly bridges the gap between the deep burgundies and the silvery greens. Their delicate, swirling petals add a touch of vintage elegance and sophistication.

Burgundy Scabiosa

For a touch of whimsy and texture, we've included burgundy scabiosa. These blooms have a playful, interesting shape with a domed center and a frilly collar of petals. Their deep, saturated color reinforces the oxblood theme while their unique form adds movement and a wildflower feel to your arrangements.

Grey Craspedia

Grey craspedia, or billy balls, are fun, modern, and utterly charming. These firm, one-inch spheres on a long stem add a pop of texture and a playful architectural element. Their cool grey tone fits perfectly within the palette, adding a contemporary touch that keeps the arrangements from feeling too traditional. They are sturdy and long-lasting, making them great for boutonnieres and corsages.

Green Dianthus Ball

To bring in that fresh, green element, we have green dianthus ball flowers, also known as Green Trick. These fuzzy, ball-shaped flowers are a vibrant mossy green. They look almost like little tufts of grass and provide an amazing textural contrast to the soft petals of the roses and mums. They are perfect for adding a touch of bright, natural green without overpowering the softer sage tones.

Burgundy Safari Sunset Leucadendron

This is a truly unique element that brings a lot of personality. The burgundy safari sunset leucadendron is a type of protea with sturdy, cone-like bracts that open to reveal a central flower. The color is a stunning gradient of deep red and green. It adds an exotic, structural element that is both rustic and modern, and it’s incredibly durable.

Dusty Miller

Now for the "sage" part of our palette! Dusty miller is a classic foliage known for its silvery-grey, felt-like leaves. It has a soft, velvety texture and a beautiful muted color that perfectly embodies the sage green aesthetic. It’s the ideal foliage for softening the edges of bouquets and centerpieces, tying all the different colors and textures together.

Parvifolia Eucalyptus

To complete the look, we have parvifolia eucalyptus. This type of eucalyptus has small, delicate leaves and a wonderful, fresh scent. Its slender, graceful stems add a sense of movement and airiness to arrangements. The blue-green color of the leaves complements the dusty miller and provides a lovely contrast to the deep burgundy flowers, completing the rustic, bohemian feel of the kit.
