Custom bouquets

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.

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
