Ami and Jeff had an appointment with a florist .... so as matron of honor I was dragged along and had to put in my two cents. So ... she likes this floral bouquet that I picked out for Dennis' and my wedding ...
Only she doesn't like roses ..... so it's gotta be other flowers .... so we're talking to the lady, and I'm telling Ami that I was going to use Flame Calla Lilies in part of my bouquet and ... I showed her a calla lily, wrong color but close ... anyway ... so the lady, who obviously hadn't been listening ... says "Okay so Calla Lilies and Roses" ... and I look at Ami, and she looks at me, and I said "She doesn't like Roses" ... PAY ATTENTION WOMAN..... (rolling eyes) .... "So she'd want other flowers" and she couldn't really come up with any suggestions on what to use. Seriously... so I walked around the area and was showing her fall colored flowers..... (then went back later and took pictures with my cell phone)
Mums, Lilies, Gerber Daisies, etc and so on...
These are Ornamental Peppers ... pretty cool huh?
Hydrangea ... one of my favorite flowers and what I used in our tiny little wedding... but we have always planned on having a big one... someday ....
Here was a cute little "centerpiece"
Carnations
Tiger Lily
One Rose that Ami agreed IS pretty ....
Another "centerpiece" we saw as we were leaving...
Then we went over to JoAnnes ... they wanted to have me pick out the pattern for my dress because they want it to be unique.... sooooooo okay ... first Jeff had put together a little arrangement .... I pushed the feathers in it...
A couple of ideas that we saw in a book...
Here is the dress pattern we agreed on .... it's the purple one in the middle....
