Just a word about lily of the vally if she had had a very large bouquet of it her arms would be falling off by the end of the serimony it can get pretty heavy in large quantitys and at least in canada it is very expensive to by from a florist shop. hope this puts her bouquet in perspective a bit.her small bouquet probly cost more than a large cascade bouquet of roses would have.

The Myrtle, BTW, is from a plant that grows in one of the palace gardens. It was planted from a sprig taken from Queen Victoria's bridal bouquet. I thought the bouquet was lovely, but I would have liked to have seen it a bit bigger than it was. Aren't we funny - all of us "Monday morning quarterbacks" critiquing what happened days ago! LOL...
