When Deborah is speaking about bouquets one of the most requested flowers for these are Peonies. Not surprising really as Peonies with their lush, full, rounded bloom embody romance and prosperity and are regarded as an omen of good fortune for a happy marriage. At weddings they look absolutely amazing within a Bride’s Bouquet or a flower girl’s posy.
However that soft lushness comes at a price and in the hands of a nervous bride or over excited flower girl they may not look quite so beautiful all day! The biggest trick-of-the-trade is to ensure that the hand does not touch the stem and this is done by creating a bound grip normally made up of a natural product like jute twine. Any moisture from hand or stem can be soaked up in this comfortable grip and your flowers can last the day out.
