I haven't even begun to think about what I'll use that day. There's so much to choose from, and with all the coupons and sales available, you can get pretty much anything you could want. @Andi, that might be a cute idea for the handles.

Maybe I should use a little greenery to help it stand out some. I've seen people use those big flimsy leaves folded as a frame all around the outside of the bouquet. That might be nice. Def something to think about. @brittany, You make a good point. Maybe I should use a little greenery to help it stand out some.
