I’d like to put little arrangements like this on some of the tables. B&w anemones with pale green flowers.

I’ve been thinking about flowers lately, and i’ve come to realize that while calla lilies are pretty, there are a lot of other flowers out there that are also very beautiful.

I want to find a beautiful tree to get married under. And i’m intrigued by the every-girl-a-different-flower idea.

I like the idea of making a gradient with the lilies. Mine would be plum-color, of course.
