I have a consultation with my wedding florist today and I honestly don't know what I want so am terrified. This is what the professionals are for, right?

must a wedding have flowers?

[–] RustyRaven@aussie.zone 7 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I had a wedding with no flowers, it is definitely possible. I mean, the marriage didn't last, but I'm sure the lack of flowers at the wedding had nothing to do with that 🤣

I had 2 very different weddings and neither of them lasted......i didnt have lots of flowers at either though, maybe i should decorate everything with flowers if i do it again?

With this sample size of 1 I have no choice but to infer direct causation 😅

A wedding must have flow. As has been widely quoted, the spice must flow. Therefore a wedding is spice. And needs to have rice. As well as sugar and everything nice. And Chemical X.

Excuse me I think you missed this 🧪

[–] baconmash@aussie.zone 2 points 2 years ago

Thank you. I was trying to order it from former twitter but their customer service team is not responding.

[–] TinyBreak@aussie.zone 3 points 2 years ago

Ours didnt. Maybe like a couple of fake ones, but I dont think those count.

If it were up to me I would just head to registry in a white t-shirt but it is not just up to me, so flowers it is!

I'd rather have flowers than people if i ever got married. Catering would just be a bag of mulch and maybe some blood and bone.

And freebees

Ask them if they have photos of their previous work, maybe something will catch your eye.

[–] eye82much@aussie.zone 1 points 2 years ago

This is my hope. I have a vague colour scheme and they have worked at my reception venue multiple times so I'm hoping just to copy some other more inspired couple 😆
