Sounds lovely Floristflo, much more fun . I've not experienced probs with gloriosa, it would be lovely in a shower bouquet, with Milano or Baccara roses, what about a bit of trailing asparagus fern with it? Cut off some of the leaves to make it a bit more delicate and airy. I wouldn't worry about your bouquet matching the reception, so long as it goes with your frock that's all that matters really.

Hi,
I agree with ddsflowers, you can't create your own WOW factor, as you will have already seen it.
That wow fator is what we strive to do as florists.
& you don't want to be so stressed as to not enjoy the day.
Love Kez x

i was told it was bad luck to make your own bouquet, but thats probably rubbish, tho i do have someone to make mine when i can afford to get married, took me 3 years to get my engagement ring, so probably a good 3-5 more before we even start talking about it lol, i would want something quite funky i think, i dont really have a favourite flower but i think i would want gerbera in it, i just could not justify paying someone i dont know to make my bouquet, i would make everything else though i think
