Flowers!!

I think that I may be slightly obsessed with the "perfect" bouquet. We will definitely be using gerber daisies and roses, but I'm open to other pink flowers to help fill out the bouquet.
This is the bouquet that I hope to re-create for my bouquet. I heart it. A LOT. I think the stargazer lilies are a perfect addition, because every time Jim sends me flowers, it always includes some type of lily. Stargazer lilies are my favorite, though!
I also love the crystal initial pin. I purchased one for each bridesmaid and myself {before I technically got engaged!}, but I haven't decided if I will have it be a part of the bouquet, as shown, or if I will have it attached to the stem.

I like the ribbon wrap on these flowers!
These are technically the flowers for the centerpieces, but it works out all the same. We'll be renting some cylinder vases for cheap instead of paying for the square ones I really wanted.
Ribbon will also be tied around the vase, but these pictures were taken quickly inside Hobby Lobby! We got a great deal on the flowers...only paid about $.63 a stem!
