I spent this past weekend in St. Petersburg, FL at the Association of Bridal Consultants Florida State meeting where I gave a seminar on multi-cultural weddings. It is always a little scary giving seminars to your peers and mentors are in attendance.
Not only did I present but I attended 2 days worth of seminars as well. I learned soooo..... many things. My favorite seminar was "Emergency Floral Fixes". We were taught how to make bouquets, boutonnieres and corsages. I have a whole new appreciation for florists. They go through alot to make a simple bouquet. Good feeling for the day!
After the seminar on the way back home we stopped in Ybor City for dinner. At the table behind us there was a girl with a great up-do and a tiara. I thought maybe she had just had her hair trail. So I went to my car and grabbed the bouquet I made and the boutonniere (since she was with a man). Turns out she had just gotten married the night before and she and her fiance were getting ready to go on a cruise. I gave them the flowers.
