 It may be the only book I need! April 19, 2006
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I ordered four or five books about Wedding Day flower arrangements, as I'm determined to do my own. When I received this in the mail, I was extremely impressed by how well everything is illustrated and explained. It makes it all seem very managable.
I highly recommend this one!

I read the reviews and thought this would be a helpful book, it wasn't. The designs are outdated, the instructions aren't clear. I actually found better instructions on the internet for free!!! Even the pictures aren't that great to look at.
 Helpful for Beginners June 19, 2004

When my daughter took her ideas for her wedding to our local florists, the estimates were over $3,000. When we finished laughing, we bought this book. Even though we had very little previous experience with florals, with a little practice we were able to make quite a few of the things she wanted ourselves. And perhaps more importantly, we were also able to determine what we couldn't do ourselves, and how best to work with a professional florist.
We didn't use any of the designs from the book, but the clear photographs and step-by-step instructions made it well worth the price for the skill development it gave us.
 Not that good July 22, 2003
8 out of 9 found this review helpful
I didnt think this book was very good. I listened to the good reviews and bought the book, but I hated it. The arrangements were boring, not just simple but lame. roses, filler, lots of baby's breath in every bouquet. Nothing exciting or different. there were some basic step by step instruction about wiring flowers and using floral tape that I did find useful but other than that the pictures and example bouquets featured throughout the entire book were so boring and unimpressive. Not worth the money I paid.
Useful but Sort of Typical (aka Traditional) May 14, 2003

I found this book useful but typical - tradional wedding flowers with little bits of baby's breath. Some people like the traditional wedding styles. I like something more modern or Asian. Indeed this book has good instructions - although I always recommend building a prototype before you are put on the spot to make the real thing (I prefer using silk in this stage). If you want a more traditional wedding floral book, this is a good one. If you want unique pizazz then I suggest you try Florist's Review - it's my fave.
