Have you ever used your garden or used flowers from your garden for someones wedding? This past summer I did – well used some of my flowers in arrangements for my husbands cousins wedding.
I wish I had some photos of the arrangements. All I have is video of the event and you can see the arrangements, right beside the most adorable candle wedding favors. I used a combination of my pink and pale yellow roses and it turned out very well.
I grow over 60 different types of roses so it was easy enough to gather enough flowers for the arrangements. We did five for them and they adored them. Perhaps next summer I’ll get to use my garden or flowers from my garden again for a special event.
If you ever have promised your garden or it’s flowers for something like a wedding how did it turn out? Were your flowers blooming when you needed them to be?
Oops! I meant my husbands “cousins” wedding. I’ve correct that now. Thanks. That did look weird didn’t it? 🙂
Thank you for your comment as well.
Hello! Glad that you joined Garden Voices, as that’s how I found your blog. I have dreams of having a garden so gorgeous that someone wants to have a wedding there, but it’s not quite ready yet. 🙂
By the way, one thing in your post confused me: What did you mean by using your flowers for “my husbands wedding”… wouldn’t that have been your wedding, too?
Gladly to be in this site for my best friend is about to get married. Until now she is still undecided on what and where will be the venue. It gives me an idea for at least whenever she asked me, I can tell her my suggestion. I think a garden wedding is very advisable. Thank you!
