...and they lived happily ever after.






















My niece M met her beau B and we waited and waited for the big wedding day!
It was a beautiful wedding that I so enjoyed helping with. I packed up all my tools and headed to Arkansas. I picked up most of the flowers on the way and had the rest dropped shipped They had a big wedding party and a beautiful sit down dinner reception. It took many hands to pull off all the arrangements for the dinner, but it turned out beautifully. It was wonderful to work with the entire family with all of us doing what we do best to add to her special day.










































It was such a beautiful day!

Once upon a time...





There was a girl named A who fell for a boy[Image] named D and they married. I am the crazy mother who wanted to do her daughter's wedding flowers. I am very good with my hands and learn all I can from practice and reading good books, but still I wasn't quite ready for this experience.


Everything turned out OK, even if a few of the rose heads (she insisted on an entire bouquet of roses only), tumbled down the aisle. I would still do it all again!





Since then, I have learned and perfected so many of my skills with flowers and continue to enjoy every minute of each wedding I am blessed to be a part of creating.
