Walking down the aisle with my step-dad and dad, they are wearing their custom boutonnieres.
Silk chiffon flower clip giveaway! Entering is so easy…
what did i do this afternoon? O, I made a bouquet. That’s right. TAKE THAT WEDDING INDUSTRY.
She’s a true wedding GENIUS. Take that bitchy florists!
To be honest with you all, I was so not into flowers for the wedding. I really couldn’t have cared less. I handed the job over to my awesome mama and she is putting together beautiful centerpieces, table decorations, etc. that totally get the feel of the wedding. We ended up using silk flowers for the centerpieces for a few reasons: 1. I didn’t want to spend money on something that will die. 2. I wanted to give each centerpiece (they’re in vases) to all the special women who have helped with the wedding. Using silk flowers means that the centerpieces will be all ready to go long before the wedding (right, mom? ;) and it’s something we don’t have to stress about in the days before the big day. However, we may want us to use real flowers for the bouquets. Ehhhhh. It’s not that I don’t love flowers, I do. However, the act of going to pick out bouquets, pay for something that will be short lived, and then have to organize getting them to the venue makes my skin crawl.
This brings me to my main point: have you seen the new trend in bouquets?
And in today’s edition of “I wish I thought of that!” Over at MADE, Dana shows us how to make gorgeous paper flowers out of party napkins. YES.
