Custom bouquets
Tessa, on January 30, 2021 at 2:43 PM

Has anyone done their own bouquet and / or bridesmaids bouquets? I’m not sure that I want to take on all of the florals, but I think it could be a fun night before activity with the girls.

Is anyone else buying faux flowers from online or making them homemade? We are buying ours from Amazon.

Between hobby lobby and Pinterest, there no need to spend to much money on the smaller pieces of your wedding, centerpieces is a big one! I’m telling you the money you will save is crazy!

Does it matter whose name goes first?
Tina, on June 3, 2014 at 9:26 PM

Does yours or your FH's name go first? And does it matter? Are you always consistent with how you write you guys' names? Or can it appear differently on different things?
