There is often a lot of pressure put on brides to plan the perfect wedding reception. Most wedding resources focus exclusively on large, lavish receptions.

Depending on a couple's wedding budget, set-up can be as elegant or as simple as a bride and groom prefer.

Arrange a Wedding Bouquet
Your wedding is in the planning stages and you want to make it special. You can make your own, using a unique wedding bouquet with an heirloom Bible or book of poetry. Perhaps you have the New Testament that your great grandfather had in World War II or the Bible your mother carried in your parents' wedding. You can arrange a wonderful wedding bouquet with a treasured book and beautiful flowers. If you use fresh flowers, you can dry the arrangement to place in a display container. If you use silk flowers, you can display it or use it as a Christmas decoration.
