making dreams come true.....
I love meeting with new brides and hearing their ideas....and seeing all the pictures of what they want for their dream wedding!
...but there are times I have a sweet girl who has seen all kind of ideas in books, magazines, and websites that give the illusion that these ideas are both inexpensive and easy....
...many times that just isn't so!
I just want to take a minute to share some of my ideas I've used for giving a bride her dream look.....without the $$$$ price tag.
Many wedding sites show flowers that can be costly and seasonal. One that all girls love is the Peony. Peonies are gorgeous and they produce a lovely, fluffy, and full look for a bouquet. What publications don't always tell a bride is that it is only available for a very short season in the spring and is costly....
I've found there are some other options for that same look that can help with the price of bouquets and centerpieces!...
The first flower shown is the Peony.....the ones below it are alternatives that create that same fluffy and full look....for less money and are available all throughout the year!
Peony
Alternatives....
Large Mum
Esperance Rose// Russian Cut
Mondial Rose
Carnations
Large Mums
Sometimes just using a few of the favorite Peony flower mixed with these alternatives can still give the romantic and full look you wanted...and still be budget friendly!
Here is another flower...Stephanotis...a timeless classic that can be costly and temperamental. It's alternative is called Bouvardia. They look almost identical!!
Bouvardia
Another Gorgeous Flower is the Coral Charm Peony....
Alternatives for it are the Juliet Garden Rose and the Amsterdam Traditional Rose...Even the Coral Spray Rose, Ilse is a wonderful full flower choice!

Sometimes they can be more than a Bride wants to spend. Take a look at the option of the fully open Spray Roses below....beautiful!!
