Flowers

I love flowers. They make me sneeze and can make my eyes all red..but I love them. And I want them to be a decent sized part of my wedding. Having said that..let's be serious. They wilt and die within a couple of days. Why am I being charged thousands of dollars?

For anyone else who is asking or has asked themselves that question, I want to tell you- there is a great wholesale flower shop off Moreno. It's on a little street called Metro; not sure the name of the place, but Metro is a cul-de-sac, and you can't miss it. Decent prices, great vase selection and a lot of additional decorations available there. Next I am going to a couple of places in Carlsbad to look as well-I will let you know if they are even better.

Anyway, I am still on the hunt for the ideal centerpiece to our wedding.

I've also done a lot of reading about varying centerpieces; so maybe half of the tables will have floral centerpieces and the other half will have hurricanes and votives on a mirrored plate with rose petals around the table? Thankfully, I have friends that are very good at making these things and coming up with great ideas (as I am many many thing..but creative is not one of them!). So if any of them are reading this--thank you so much for all of your help and advice!!!
