Destination Wedding Flowers You’ll Love

Expert Tip from Natalie Kerslake, Village Vines

So many girls have told me how unhappy they are with the selection of flowers that are available to them for their destination weddings. Without paying a huge amount of money, they’re unable to get anything similar to what they would otherwise choose locally.

Several brides have opted for artificial bouquets that are in the colours and flowers they want, which they pack with them in their suitcases and use for their wedding. These also serve as a lovely keepsake afterwards and they still look as realistic and beautiful as a fresh flower bouquet.

Artificial bridal bouquets range from $75 to $125 and bridesmaids cost about $50 to $90 each.

It’s been a Ball…

Staff at The Ring wanted to thank all of the vendors, sponsors, media and gorgeous brides (past, present & future) who supported The Brides’ Ball in Kitchener on the 23rd and then in London on the 29th. Both events were awesome, and the dance floor was hopping in London until after 1am.

In the end, we had two events, 70+ sponsors, 200+ prizes, and the online auction is still going strong (at about $3100 as of Friday).

As soon as photos come in from Barebonephoto, Ralph Heinze Photography, HRM Photography and Boulevard Photography and Fine Things, we’ll update the blog and post them. Video of the Ball to come shortly to ringTV courtesy of MatriMovie and Etched in Time.

For Facebook fanatics, there’s plenty of pics of the Ball popping up all over the Facebook world.
