2SIZE The sizc of your wedding party will

grcutly łmpact the amount of moncy you spend on flowers. Uouqucts. corsagos. boutonnieres and flower girl baskets add up. so you may want to limit the wedding party to inr.lude only your closcst friends and family.

ous typc. or are you a comodian? Are you conservativc or carcfrec? Your flowers should rcflcct your personality. Consider whether you prefer a simplc bouquct of toose garden flowers or a sophisti-cated array of elegant blossoms.
