The cost of hosting a wedding can be quite expensive when professional services are used for all the details We are happy to present some beautiful, impressive arrangements that can be made with your Floral Design at almost half the cost of a florist. These designs arc suitable for banquet tables, church alters or reception areas. We have done our wedding arrangements with fresh flowers, silk flowers, dried flowers and a special food arrangement perfect for your reception! Nothing looks more romantic than a heavenly bouquet of fresh baby s breath and pink carnations.

Fresh

WeddingThe stems are cut fourteen inches long. (You may need to wire the carnations if the stems are too weak. Another hint when dealing with carnations; gently open the petals by rolling the flower in the palm of your hand.

1. Use twenty four carnations.l 2. Fill the vases with fresh water. 3. Due to the size of the arrangement, style each vase separately. 4. surround each carnation stem with three lush, thirteen inch stem baby s breath and place each cluster in a vase. You can determine how full the arrangement will be atter fillingtwo to three vases. If it seems too skimpy add more baby s breath and repeat with all the vases. It is difficult to give exact quantities because the fullness and quality of the flowers vary. 5. Place the glass disc in the center of the Floral Design and add the Floral seven after the vase has been placed in its final location. 6. We have surrounded the arrangement with bridal tulle for a romantic, cloudlike effect. This looks especially beautiful as a centerpiece for the bridal table. 7. The completed arrangement stands about twenty- four inches tall. If you desire a smaller arrangement, cut the stems shorter.

Dried

Wedding To accent a wedding theme of nostalgia, we have designed a Victorian arrangement featuring: dried mini flame roses, natural preserved baby s breath, dried pink heather and preserved leather leaf fern.

I. Cut the flower stems at five inches.

2. Fill the Floral Design vases with white grits

3. Surround the rose stem with two stems of baby s breath and heather and place in every other vase. Fill the remaining vases with the baby s breath and heather. Add the leatherfern to the lower tier of vases usingone or two stems per vase depending on the fullness of the fern.

Food Preparation

wedding The simplicity of chips and dip becomes a striking centerpiece when presented in the Floral Design. We have combined fresh fuchsia colored sweet williams, ivory spider mains and fresh, emerald colored parsley! The chips are large ruffle style potato chips and the dip is a classic sour cream and onion dip.1. Cut the flower stems to match the longest overall length of parsley stem. This usually does not exceed six to seven inches. 2. Fill the vases on the Floral Design with fresh water. 3. Fill each vase with a cluster of parsley and alternate one of each flower stem in eveiy third vase until they are evenly distributed.

4. Place the arrangement at the desired location.

5. Add the glass disc to the center of the Floral Design.

6. Center a large glass chip and dip bowl which has already been filled with chips and dip.

7. Garnish the dip with a large sprig of parsley and a stem of sweet william.
