Flowers!

Let us just say to start that ordering flowers is the most fun a person can have on a snowy cold November night in Edmonton. What a blast!! We spent an hour last night at La Piazza Dasee, a local flower shop, talking to Gordon, one of the designers there (and a fellow member of Da Camera Singers), about the wedding. And at the end of that hour, we had bouquets, boutonnieres and corsages all sorted out and ordered!

The bouquets will be made up of roses, gerber daisies, lillies, all in whites, creams, and butter yellow tones. There will also be various types of delightful greenery. And the boutonnieres and corsages will be either roses or mini-gerbers, depending to whom the flowers are attached.

It's amazing to watch a floral designer at work because in what seems like an instant, he takes a little bit of this and a little bit of that and TADA!! An absolutely breathtaking display.

Getting all these details into place just makes us more excited for the big day, and we're quickly realizing that the next 8 months or so are going to fly by!!
