Flowers are Fun Too!

One always thinks of love ones in February, and flowers seem to follow.
I had the pleasure this past February, to help two very wonderful friends with their wedding flowers. I've done weddings before, but this was different. Texas was the destination and I had GREAT help.

I got an image board to get the ideas going...
Our lovely bride wanted lilacs, and the groom was looking for daisies.
Her dress had a hint of Swan Lake and she had a wonderful robin egg color necklace. This started all of the fun. I sent a few ideas and because of the wedding being in Texas I couldn't help but throw some Hens and Chicks ( Sempervivums ) into the mix.

Side note - a great bonus, even though the Sempervivums were taken out of the ground, they can be placed back to re-grow.

Also some wonderful finds at the salvation army, let us play with the table arrangements...
