Practice Bouquet

We're not having floral centerpieces at our wedding, so the only flowers we'll have are those that will go on our chuppah and the bouquets and boutonnieres. (I think I might do mini-bouquets for those women who would typically get corsages, because corsages make me think of prom. But I'll ask them their preference. And we might not even have floral boutonnieres, or any at all... I'm leaving that decision to Adam.) After the flowers fiasco at Adam's sister's wedding (florist had the wrong date, so all flowers were arranged the morning of the wedding), and considering how little we really care about the flowers, we (um, I) decided that we (again, I) would just make the bouquets ourselves (myself). Most people I've mentioned this to have thought I was a little nuts, so I'm starting my practice bouquets early. I don't think this one is too bad for my first attempt (using so-so flowers from Trader Joe's).

Perhaps wishing the groom got a bouquet too? :-)

And now I have a vase full of pretty flowers!

Not too shabby! What did you do, pretend it was a bunch of fruit and you were making a christmas basket?

AW! Adam looks so pretty! You should make him a bridesmaid. Wait, what?

The bouquets are also very pretty.

YAY, HUSKIES!

And, uh, the flowers look awesome! I also did not care so much about flowers, but I did not have the wherewithal to do this myself. You pick your battles, you know?

You can totally make your own bouquets! The practice one looks awesome.
