Book Reviews of The Knot Book of Wedding Flowers

Book Review: The knot book of wedding flowers - a good preparation for your wedding floral arrangement
Summary: 5 Stars

The book is really helpful. It provides you basic information about flowers: names, colours, seasons, price, meaning.... After the first chapter of introduction to flowers, you will come to how to prepare your own wedding floral arrangement. (I am at this part so could not provide any further description about the book but overall I found all what I've read is very interesting and helpful).

The book comes with high quality images printed on high quality paper, so it's very enjoyable. Reading the book doesnt require you to read chapters through chapters; you can just start/stop anywhere you like. It's a good book for people who are interested in flowers and wedding floral arrangement. It's also good to read just for leisure.

Summary of The Knot Book of Wedding Flowers

From bouquets to boutonnieres, corsages to centerpieces, The Knot Book of Wedding Flowers features everything a bride needs to know about those all-important details. This lavishly illustrated book includes more than 150 color photographs and a wealth of useful information. Featuring page after page of beautiful arrangements, a fully photographed glossary of popular wedding flowers, advice on finding and working with a florist, step-by-step instructions for creating a host of floral accents by hand, and explanations of floral terminology, this is a book to be enjoyed well beyond a wedding. From the ceremony arrangements to the posies for the bridesmaids, this comprehensive resource guides the happy couple through every aspect of floral decoration.
For every bride (and her mother), The Knot Book of Wedding Flowers provides an invaluable and inspirational guide for planning a perfect storybook event--be it a private family affair or an all-out bash in a hotel ballroom. Author Carley Roney, editor-in-chief of The Knot online wedding planning site, which has branched out to offer this and other books (like The Knot's Complete Guide to Weddings in the Real World), provides extensive information, friendly advice, and helpful tips for brides of every budget. Special features of the book include beautifully illustrated glossaries of a wide variety of common wedding flowers as well as surveys of the various shapes and styles of bouquets, centerpieces, guest favors, and boutonnieres. How-to sections help the bride decide on her floral style and palette--deep red or purple flowers are popular modern choices, and of course all-white weddings remain perennially popular. Do-it-yourself instructions, clearly illustrated, help brides create their own flower decorations. And even brides with very deep pockets will appreciate the guide to choosing a florist, as well as the timeline planner and sample worksheets at the back of the book. Throughout, 150 glorious color photos seem practically fragrant. --Judy Fireman
