As the economic crunch continues to hit us all, it is natural that brides (and grooms) am able to look for ways to stretch a wedding budget. And who can blame them? Gas serves to probably approach $5/gallon before the end of summer. And as gas costs rise, so performs all of it else. What's a bride to do?
Think around working at some of your flowers yourself. When my husband I got married, I went by Costco and got a couple of dozen roses in two colors. And afterward I arranged a small bouquet myself.
So how can you construct your bouquet? Try somewhat simple:
1) Trim the roses and cluster them together. If you're using two colors, alternate them throughout in a pattern that's pleasing to you.
2) Add some of the greenery who normally accompanies the flowers, putting it around the outside of the flowers. You don't fancy to use all of it, merely enough to add select larger number of color.
3) Did your flowers arrive investing in babies breath? Stick bits of it right here and there to accent the arrangement.
4) Secure the bouquet with string, or floral wire if you have it.
5) Now cover the flower stems with a bit of florist's tape and then wrap with some relatively ribbon.
It is not that hard, nor is it expensive. Flowers from a place covet Costco can be of a decent quality. And the price is certainly right - you can spend vastly short of $50 for a nice bouquet.
Flowers are beautiful, but you don't want to buy a lot of expensive facilities for your wedding, outstandingly when on a tight budget. And in these times, saving money is likely to be important to all of us.
