Your wedding flowers add an ambiance to your special day. The colour and style can match your theme or simply be the most beautiful fresh flowers available at the best price for the season you are married in.
From your engagement party to your wedding day, flowers will play a role in all your celebratory parties.
Your bridal bouquet is the one adornment that can be your own personal, signature style. Whether it be a gorgeous multi-floral or a single gorgeous stem wrapped in ribbon, it will accessorize your gown and add colour.
Your groom and the rest of the wedding party will also have flowers- as will your parents and grandparents. Flowers are a signal of a big celebration and set the stage for the party to come.
You can wrap your cake in flowers and you can garnish your hair with them too.
When choosing your flowers, think through what you really like and the smell that you wish to have fragrance your air. The scent will always remind you of your wedding day!
After the wedding, preserve your bouquet and put it in a shadow box frame along with your invitation. It makes a lovely reminder and preserves your memory-making!

My childhood friend of 55 years found the love of his life in Sharon, and married her on Friday, June 5, in the beautiful gardens of the Flamingo Vegas. I wish them all the happiness in the world- they are a terrific couple and I am happy that fate found them and matched them together.
My wedding webcast invitation came about 2 weeks ago and I was intrigued by how the broadcast would look. Watching Sharon ,who was a radiant bride walk throught the stunning gardens on the Flamingo property in Las Vegas was like a fairy-style story in happiness. The flowers were abloom, the gardens manicured and lush; and the entire venue was so special, that no amount of decorations would have made it look one iota better. This spot that they picked to marry was elegant and stately.
Sharon followed the path, gracefully, almost lilting with happiness and met up with Graham. They were married with beautiful words by an officiant who made the entire ceremony, oh so special. Oh, I am glad you both found your happiness together.
Graham was my maid of honour at my first marriage 38 years ago. We have had a special friendship throughout all these years and I changed the rules when it was unheard of to have a male take that role of MOH.
He and Sharon used the new technology to broadcast their day and I thank them both for this gesture. It was so much nicer to be there with them in the cyber-groove be able to be a party to their union and all without leaving home.
Wherever you decide to get married, if there are people who you know are unable to make it to you for whatever reason, this web-based solution adds so much joy to the people who are close to you. It is a small thing to do with a webcam and a computer but it makes such a difference. Real time ceremonies show the emotions, the happiness and the excitement of this milestone called a wedding.
Use what ever is available to link the ones to you because they really do want to share and you’re facilitating it will make the day special for everyone.
Now, when they return we can all reunite; hug, kiss and have a party to commemorate this wonderful milestone called “the beginning of the rest of their life.”
Note to self… If anyone is off to a destination wedding or even if they are being married locally, remember the ones who physically can’t be with you and know they really really do want to participate in their happiness.
Proudly serving local brides for 16 years!
My oldest friend and I met when we were both young; I was just 3 – he was a little older. We both know back then that we were the sibs neither of us had, because we were both only children. Our friendship has been an non-irrirant- being constantly in each other’s life and we love each other to bits for this beautiful friendship. When I married for my 1st time in 1971, my friend was my number one choice for my maid of honour. We broke tradition way back then, when everyone around us, was marrying in the same manner as their mother had previously; most traditional and predictable. And the evolution continues today in so many ways and styles than we ever could have imagined. Who knew that personalization and doing something unique would become the norm?
A few years ago, and after a long marriage ended, my friend met and fell in love with his wonderful bride, Sharon and the rest is history. They were planning a local wedding the last I spoke with them at the bridal show and then, suddenly we got an invitation to view their ceremony, live from the Flamingo Vegas- in beautiful Las Vegas. The message read: we didn’t want to wait any longer!
Friday was the day, and Sharon walked through the gorgeous, verdant gardens on the hotel grounds looking like the happiest woman in the world. Standing to greet her at the end of the path, near a fabulous, palm tree, she and Graham pledged themselves to each other and it was as beautiful as any wedding I had ever been to!
We watched in real time and it was such a pleasure being able to “be there” as it happened. Thanks you two for being so resourceful and sending your day to u s so we could share in your happiness. We wouldn’t have missed it for the world!
Whether you’re marrying at a destination far from home or you’re home and some of your favourite people can’t make it to your destinationa because of various circumstances, hook up a webcam and celebrate. There’s nothing like a milestone and even if you can’t be there in “person”, you can be there in full view!!
Bring on the mitzvahs (celebrations in Yiddush) and share it in style. What a wonderful way to be inclusive and sprinkle your happiness throughout the world of the ones you love.
Until later,
