New Book of Wedding Flowers Simple & Stylish Arrangements for the Creative Bride

Too often, wedding details can be a source of stress instead of delight. But planning your flowers should be both a pleasure and an opportunity to express your personal style. All the information -- and inspiration -- you need is here. Start by creating a wedding flower plan detailing what you'd like for your ceremony and reception. You'll learn tips for deciding on a budget, working with florists, or finding the flowers you want on your own. Next, take a quick course in floral design basics, from color and composition to the various shapes of bouquets and their relation to dress style. Then, learn to create beautiful bridal arrangements, such as posies and nosegays for your wedding party, boutonnieres for the groom and groomsmen, and halos for bridesmaids and flower girls.O'Sullivan, Joanne is the author of 'New Book of Wedding Flowers Simple & Stylish Arrangements for the Creative Bride', published 2004 under ISBN 9781579904654 and ISBN 1579904653.
