Weddings don't have to be burdened by expectations of others. It is over used, but it is your day and you can do it your way. After a recent wedding expo, where I was exhibiting some of the décor items I offer in my other business (Glamour Red Carpet Hire) I thought it was time to put the spotlight on how much freedom there is in doing your wedding day differently. When you filter out all the industry BS about 'must have', 'on-trend' and family politics there is a plethora of ways to make your day just what you want it to be.
My couples tend to be relaxed, laid back people looking to express their commitment and love for each other without the pomp and circumstance that goes with traditional weddings. As such I wanted to give some love to vendors and suppliers I have come across both in-person and online that are bringing something vibrantly different to the wedding space, starting with Flowers and Floral Arrangements. How do you do flowers differently? Choose dried!
Dried Florals: not only are dried flowers a great alternative to fresh flowers, with the right supplier and arrangement your wedding flowers can be a lasting memento from your day. There are many florists offering dried bouquets and arbour arrangements. These are four that I think are bringing something a little more to the table.
