Came across a great article in the February Issue Bride’s Magazine today: 72 Tips for a Perfect Day. Really simple pointers from some awesome wedding professionals, for the party of your lifetime. Thought I’d share the ones pertaining to the flowers and decor – and add a few of my own for you.

- Be kind to your florist and he [they] may surprise yo uwith unexpected details, and even throw in extras you didn’t pay for. – Lewis Miller, LMD New York

- Make use of natural and organic elements that contribute to the visual impact of your overall look. Branches and willow or mood moss and grass can really pump up a centerpiece without adding significant cost. – Corinne Samu Smith, panacea event floral design
