Says it All THE BOUQUET

BY BRANDI EVERETT

Daisies

Just in case you are planning a traditional wedding, daisies are the perfect flowers for you. They are simple, delicate and are available in various colors. The themes of purity and innocence associated with daisies make them spectacular.

Orchids

These exquisite flowers are your go-to flowers for nuptials. Their delicateness and unrivaled beauty make them perfect for your wedding. If your eyes are a shade of green, you can carry a full arrangement of green orchids to accentuate your regal look.

Carnations

If your wedding theme is vintage, the ruffled texture of carnations will add an excellent touch. If you are going for a monochromatic look and don’t want to break the bank by getting a centerpiece made of only roses, you can add a couple of carnations. The rich mix of pink and green carnations will give a warm touch to your wedding. You will be saving some money and still get the best of both worlds.

Tulips

A delicate arrangement of long stemmed tulips can make the whole difference in your wedding ensemble. They are not too big or small, they are perfect. Red, purple, yellow or white tulips have striking color patterns and they are enchanting in their simplicity.

Calla lilies A subtle mix of painted leaves and succulents will add life to your bouquet: A little deviation from common practice can make a brilliant addition to your flower bouquet. A couple of gold or silver painted leaves will add a touch of elegance and sophistication to your collection of flowers.

The beauty of calla lilies cannot be overemphasized. Just a handful will make an exquisite bouquet on your wedding day. They are associated with good luck charm for a happy home. So, you might want to grab a couple of calla lilies just before you say your vows. They come in different colors ranging from white, yellow, red, pink, purple and black.

BY SHIRIN MEHDI Wedding cakes today can be the focal point of your wedding, but did you know that this opulent centerpiece has a long history? A reflection of the tiered cake we know today was first seen only in the 1900s. In this day and age, couples go all out to make a memory out of this ageold tradition. The sky is the limit when it comes to creativity with wedding cakes.

This year is all about simplicity and sophistication as things take a more modern approach from the rustic theme that dominated 2019. A traditional cake is the first and the best choice, but 2020 is all about monochromatic themes.

The all white on white cake is back and it’s making a statement.

White cake, white pearls, white flowers, white piping are all going to be the must-haves for your show-stopper cakes this year.
