Flowers or Aisle Runner?

happe2gether

Which do you think is best? I keep flip flopping between the 2 and I can't seem to decide if I want to DIY an aisle runner or just line both sides of the aisles with petals in our accent color - yellow.  WDYT?

since the carpet has a lot going on, I would say an aisle runner.

<div>Sultry, I have been looking for fresh or freeze dried rose petals for the longest that were cost effective. Thank you so much. We can only use fresh/freeze dried for anything on the ground. Sam's Wholesale online have them too. I think 5000 petals for $99.99. I just don't think I will need that many though.</div>

This is how we do it - (tm Montell Jordan) lol.

when my moh got married 11 years ago we figured we could do the bok's & centerpieces ourselves.  she ordered a truckload of roses, they arrived 2 or 3 days before and we let em sit in several dollar store buckets to bloom.  girrrrrrrrl, we were assembling the night before and on wedding day, those things were lucious.   If you have any questions about flowers in general and you call this place, speak to Arlene, she's the head designer and knows everything there is to know about type, season, bloom, quantity, etc.  can you tell i love this place? lol.

ygpm, btw

I'm doing both aisle runner and petals.

I would suggest for you the aisle runner, because the carpet is busy. I'm ordering my petals from Sams, because its cheaper than coming from my florist....she was charging $125 for 4000 petals, so for $25 less, I get an extra 1000 petals that I can surely use SOMEWHERE!

I'm doing an aisle runner because I'm sooooo paranoid about people walking, messing up my pretty flower petals. You know it will always be that one person that walks the wrong way into the aisles and messes up the petals.
