Carnations....

I Love Carnations!! I know it sounds funny.. especially ever since I can remember I told everyone.. buy me flowers.. but dont ever buy Carnations! I get that same response from my brides when I say... what do you think about Carnations?
But they are soon surprised when I show them photos of what I mean... Carnations are so vesitle, inexpensive and fun if put into the right arrangement! Here are some of my favorite ideas from our weddings and from magazines!

Bridesmaid's Are Jumping For Joy!

A Re-Wearable Bridesmaid Dress... Why didn’t anyone think of this earlier? It is funny that it took until 2010 to get bridesmaid dresses that were... Just really nice dresses and could easily be worn to an office party, your friends wedding and out for dinner! I am excited that not only are these very attractive, but accessible as well. J Crew, Anthropologie, White House Black Market, and Ann Taylor are just a few of the companies that have now launched Bridesmaid’s dresses. Urban Outfitters is working on a brand that will be coming out soon!
All of these are located in the metro area and give brides many more options!
