Charity Favors: Crystal bottle stoppers and seed packets with your wedding date on them can be cute, however in my experience items like this are left behind more than 50% of the time. A charity favor, promotes a good…

Out of Town Guest Gift Bags

Traveling to a wedding is a big commitment for your guests, not only financially, but also because they have to spend a lot of time in an unfamiliar city.

One of the ways you can make them feel at ease is by giving out-of-town guests gift bags when they arrive. These bags should include several fun and practical items to make the wedding weekend more…

Questions you should ask your florist (that I've answered)

1. Why should I choose you over another florist?

2. Does the florist have photographs or a portfolio?
