Teresa asked:


My wedding colors are black and light pink and I’m looking for flower ideas that will go nicely. In general I don’t like light pink flowers by themselves, so I need help making a combination with some possible black flowers. Pictures help a lot!!

pidley asked:


My problem is I can’t buy wholesale and the grocery stores don’t carry the unusual or rare flowers. I am wondering if I get a florist to order the flowers and I buy the supplies I need. Is it going to save that much money? And I am also worried about preserving them.

I’m getting married in PR this July, and I’d like to keep and press some of the flowers. Can I bring them back through the USDA inspection?
I have seen other people talking online about bringing things from PR in particular though since it is part of the US…

JenBug asked:


So I was thinking for part of the centerpeices for the reception to get some of the foilage at michaels. I’m sure its cheap looking, but when it comes to money, its cheaper doing it that way, and I could still make it look nice, they have lots to choose from, and all the right colors. I could put them in a vase w/ marbles or something I don’t know, what do you think, would you think it was tacky to have fake flowers on the table for decor? plz help..thanks a lot!

Ok, I love lilies (not calla but like day lilies or stargazer lilies). I’m needing some flowers that would look good with lilies. I need pink orange and yellow flowers too (those are my wedding colors). Any pics with pink orange and yellow lilies w/other flowers would be great (like in a bouquet, not just links of random pink orange or yellow flowers, unless it is to show me something that will look good with the lilies). Thanks! =)

Is there any instructions anywhere? How is color added in gradiations such as on an iris?
Maybe I should be more clear. I am thinking the flowers that I saw made were made from fondant or something like that since they were something that was rolled out not made in a bag

Hey! :) I am looking at wedding flowers and I love the look of calla lillies BUT they are uber expensive!! :( :( soooo…..I have found some much cheaper silk ones and they seem to look quite good on the internet. My question is, did anyone out there use silk flowers? Did they look alright? Did you regret not using real ones? Those kinda questions, basically! I would love opinions on fake flowers for bouquets. Thanks!!

Grace1228 asked:


I am getting married in June and have an appointment with the florist to pick flowers this Saturday. She told me to bring ideas and photos of things I like, but I have no idea how to even go about choosing what’s appropriate or would look nice. It’s a large formal wedding, my bridesmaids dresses are an aqua color and we’re having a church wedding and then an indoor reception. Should the centerpiece flowers be similar to the bridesmaids flowers? Should my flowers be completely different? I have no idea where to start, so any advice is really appreciated!
