What flowers smell strongly or bad? What should I avoid in flower arrangements? I am making flower arrangements for my wedding. I want to know which common flowers smell strongly so I can avoid them. For example, daisies tend to have a bad (IMO) smell and gardenias smell good but are strong. Note: I don't mean exotic flowers like the rotting corpse flower or other things not sold in a flower shop.
How hard do you think it is to make a flower arrangements? Now on Logo, the LGBT Channel they now have a reality TV show about people making flower arrangements as a competition.

Blueberry plants in flower arrangements for wedding? I am DIYing the flowers for my wedding in May and am curious if blueberry plants would have yielded any fruit by then. I had this idea to use sprigs of blueberries in the flower arrangements, but have no idea where I could order this sort of thing or, if I grew the bushes myself, if they would bear fruit in time for my wedding. Would they be bearing fruit in time for the wedding?
Where to make your own flower arrangements in Wichita ks? I have a friend who LOVES to make her own flower arrangements, so instead of getting her flowers, I would like to get her a gift card to a flower shop. However, I have noticed that many flower shops only put out arrangements that are pre-made and have a poor selection if you want to arrange your own. Does anyone know of a good shop in Wichita KS that has a great selection of stuff you can arrange on your own?
Flower Arrangements? I'm just curious as to what flowers should be done for the wedding? My girls [and I] are having simple flowers. They'll either carry a single rose or three and I'll either carry three or six - all with the babies breath & tied with a ribbon. Other than that, what flowers are supposed to be at a wedding? Please don't say, "Whatever you want!" because that doesn't help. Are there supposed to be other flowers at the ceremony? What about the reception? It's going to be at my Dad's house, outside.

What is a good alternative to flower arrangements at a wedding? I am helping a friend plan her wedding. Our budget is basically non-exsistent. We had planned to gather fresh flowers for the table centerpieces. Now we are having a drought and due to an accident on the bridge to our Island, we have had to stop irrigating! There is very little chance that we will be able to find flowers. Any creative suggestions will be appreciated! The wedding colors and blue and teal. No special theme - just inexpensive (or free would be even better). Thanks.
What kind of flower arrangements do I need for my wedding? I'm getting married in May and have an appointment with my florist next week. She wants me to have an idea of what I want for arrangements and such, but I'm not quite sure what I need, other than the obvious boquets and boutineers. How many arrangements are typical? I'm just not sure where to start because I've never been one to pay attention to those type of things!

fake water for flower arrangements? I just put a silk flower arrangement together in a vase and added that fake water stuff. It says it will harden in 24-48 hours but by now shouldn't it at least be getting thicker? it has been 6 hours. It says to use it in 65-74 degree temps so I am at 70. I know i mixed it right. Well ok. i know not to touch it. I have the extra in a seperate cup and that is my tester. The real deal I wont even breathe on because I am afraid of ruining it.
Is there a web page where I can actually see the flower arrangements? Almost all the wedding pages have a section called "flowers" but usually they just talk about it and do not show any flowers at all. That makes me mad, i want to choose flowers for my bouquet and center pieces not to grow them or get to know them. Any tips for me? Thank you.
