Designing My Bridal Bouquet

I gave this sketch to my florist since this type of bouquet was hard for me to adequately explain.

After going over some tips for choosing your bridal bouquet, I’d love to share with you mommas my experience in designing my bridal bouquet!  As I explained a bit before, my original concept of the bouquet was: round, fluffy, all white, hand-tied and NO GREENERY!  And if you look online, you will see many of
