With the help of this exquisite and instruction-filled guide, anyone can create gorgeous wedding arrangements with ease. It covers all the important points any designer must take into consideration: how to coordinate the flowers with the overall theme of the ceremony; where the arrangements will be needed, from personal boutonnieres to centerpieces at the reception; and how to work with a florist to get the blooms. Floral basics and how-tos range from important facts on color and composition to suggestions on bouquet shapes and their relation to the dresses. Most important are the various projects to duplicate exactly or use as a springboard, from lovely monochromatic themes to seasonal styles.

The New Book of Wedding Flowers : Simple & Stylish Arrangements for the Creative Bride
September 30, 2005
Format:Hardcover
The book has beautiful pictures and wonderful ideas. I wish it would identify all flowers and amounts used in the boquets.
I thought it might be more of an instructional book. It is a good reference.

I borrowed this book from my local library--I always like to preview wedding flower books before I buy them. I won't be buying this one.
First, let me say that I'm a professional florist. For a bride considering doing her own flowers, there isn't enough detail here to complete the task. This book might be a good overview, but would definitely need to be followed up with more detailed instructions. The photo quality is hit and miss, as is the flower quality in the photos. I wouldn't use this book in a consultation with a bride. But if you're just looking for an overview of all of your options for the use of flowers in a wedding, as well as some ideas for design schemes, this book would be useful.
