Blended Bouquet
Everyone has seen those quickly put-together bunches of mixed blooms sold at every deli and supermarket. But by sorting and creatively mixing monochromatic hues (rununculus, fresia, tulips, and small white roses) and removing excessive filler like asparagus fern, one can easily make a gorgeous bouquet any bride would be proud to carry down the aisle.
