Bouquet

While I am still in love with these I stumbled upon the history of bridal bouquets the other day.

I was intrigued to learn that they originated as herbal bouquets carried to ward off evil spirits in various cultures including roman, greek, and celtic cultures.

This intrigued me because we have an herbalist in the family, not only does she work as the buyer of herbs for a local co-op, she has her own herbal apothecary, and she grows more herbs then you can shake a stick at. What a great way to incorporate her into our wedding!

Now some eye candy.
