The 2006 issue of The Knot Weddings: Pittsburgh has hit the stands, and if you pick up a copy, check out the Trend Alert on page 21.  That’s a real bouquet we made for a bridal show.  The bouqurt features lavender double-tulips, green viburnum and Vendella roses.  You can see the original photo at http://www.bloomeryweddings.com/portfolio_detail.asp?product_id=BW321.

Speaking of real bouquets in The Knot, our ad on page 82 is a real bouquet, and that’s the real bride holding it.  There were three dozen cream roses in that bouquet, and the bouquet was stunning.  It was nearly 100 degrees on the day of this wedding, in the non-air conditioned Harbison Chapel at Grove City College.  The poor bride was practically melting, and was trying to keep cool for a few minutes between wedding photos.  We took a quick photo of the bouquet for the portfolio in our store, and our graphic designer turned that moment into our ad.

Why all the emphasis on real in this post (and in previous ones)?  As you plan your wedding, you’ll get a lot of information from every direction, and it may be hard to filter out the useful from the otherwise.  Our experience and creativity can help you make the best floral choices for your wedding day, pleasing both your eye for beauty and your budget.
