I don't think I'm a wedding planner - but I think I could one day be - if I cared enough about wasting other people's money. It would be easier if I was there and could touch the flowers and taste the food, but alas, I'm just queen googler.
Like this search on flowers. I basically know what roses, tulips and hydrangeas look like. That's it. It ends there. So how am I supposed to know what to tell the flower lady to order? I sent her some centerpiece pictures and asked her to send me some options. And then I google searched. Here are what I think would be pretty general decor wedding flowers. dun dun dun . . .
moon-lite/shade carnations, Calla Lilies, Chrysanthemum, lavender, Lilacs!, Hydrangea, tulips, Globemaster' Bulb, Anthurium, Muscari, Delphiniums, and Peonies and to some peoples dismay, I still think baby's breathe can be done right.
Sometimes I think I fail as a girl. Was I raised to smell the flowers and ask what they were called? I don't even think my mom would know and Google (I have no idea how we survived pre-Google life) was nonexistent back in those ancient years. So kudos to all you encyclopedia and nursery nerds. I just walk by and say "those are pretty" just for some man to say something that dies in two days is not worth the price. But my happiness is!! It always comes with a cost =)
