    Thank you for offering sensible wedding counsel. Wedding hysteria is dreadful for everyone except the commercial wedding industry, making it difficult for the wedding to be a celebration. Having been married.50 years, I know that the cost of the wedding has little to do with the success of a marriage.

    I always love flower arranging I’m not really good at it but I still love doing it and I love seeing how you are putting all these beautiful flower arrangements together for a wedding when my son got married we did everything very simple and basic in the wedding turned out beautiful and we spend hardly any money but it was beautifully done with flowers from the garden thank you so much my dear friend for another great inspiring video

    Fifty years ago we were poor graduate students. My husband often gave me potted African Violets as gifts. So many, that when it came time to plan our wedding I was able to take enough cuttings to grow, under lights, a small pot of African violets for each of the 100 guests. We used them as the table centerpieces surrounding a candle. The bridesmaids carried baskets that we filled with flowers. Would I do my own flowers again? Absolutely, maybe without the grow lights !

      that's a lovely thing - it happens too in this country - I remember a friend getting married and there were family heirloom ancient coins which were taped into her shoes for the ceremony but she had to give them back afterwards for the next family member to be married with xxx

    I am thrilled the wedding industry has gone toward these type of bouquets. I much prefer natural looking. As a florist, I didn't like those oasis filled bouquet holders.

    Have you ever considered growing thornless roses for cut flowers, and if not why not?

      @@theflowerfarmer I read that the thornless Oceana Hybrid Tea Rose is popular for spring weddings and Easter gatherings. That's all I know. I have been considering in investing is a rose or two, but only if they are thornless and are a good cut flower.
