2013 Weddings Trends – The “it” flower

I hope you all had a fabulous holiday season, spent with people you love <3

Now that the holidays are over, it’s time to get back to the business of weddings. Congratulations to all the newly engaged couples! First on the list HIRE A PLANNER. It will be the best investment you make, bar none.

With the new year comes new wedding trends and we’ve got some that are making us drool and we can’t wait to share them with you. The next few blogs will be dedicated to all the hot new 2013 weddings trends.

The “it” flower for 2013 is the…peony. I have loved this flower for a long time and I’m finally glad it’s getting the attention it deserves. A few things to remember when working with the peony are:
