Plus, she's practically my neighbor. And she has pretty red hair. And she met me at one of my favorite coffee shops for our initial consultation. Hyde Park, represent!
She even got a shout out in a New York Times article from earlier this week. Go Brooke! (Ok, we get it. I'm a fan.) Much thanks to Tara for sending me her way. What a gem! Can't wait to see her floral touches at play on October 30.
In other floral news...
I'm totally excited about the DIY portion of our wedding flower package-combo-mix-bit-thingy. In an attempt to save some pennies (even though Pollen was super affordable), we will only be using Brooke for bouquets, corsages, and boutonnieres. (The most important stuff, really.) The reception flowers, however, will be purchased wholesale from one of the following 2 companies and assembled by a lucky, as of yet undetermined bunch of amateur floral arrangers. Aka, my [insert flattery here] friends. Look out, it could be you!

For now, I'll just be flipping through my wedding books, perusing the wedding blogs, and quietly stalking any photos of centerpiece arrangements that I can get my hands on. I have absolutely no experience in floral selection or floral arrangement, but darn it all, sign me up for another creative wedding opportunity! By far my favorite part of this whole process.*
