An Alternative way to choose your wedding flowers: by Star Sign!

Some brides choose wedding flowers based on colours. Some brides choose wedding flowers based on personal choice. Most brides choose wedding  flowers based on seasons. But there are some [not entirely sure how many] who choose their wedding flowers based on their star sign. Are you one of them?

I bet most of you are thinking.... what? Wedding flowers by star sign? Surely not! I kid not... not only are there specific flowers by star sign but colours too! Which Star Sign Bride are you?

Hmmm ok I am sure, like me, you are thinking - really? few of these really inspire or appear to me as amazing combinations for wedding bouquets and arrangements and on the face of it, for some of these I would perhaps agree [a little] then again, as much as I love flowers [my name does mean little flower after all] I'm no floral designer - and these guys can do amazing work with just about anything! Remember that Daisy and Dandelion bouquet I featured a couple of weeks back?
