Book Reviews of To Have & To Hold: Magical Wedding Bouquets
Book Review: Large Photos Do the Trick
Summary: 4 Stars
I'm marrying in November and went to the library to look up books on wedding flowers; this one came out to be my favorite so far. Although some of the advice is a little too frou-frou for my tastes (if you want Spring flowers in December, then have at it!), the bouquets and flowers are gorgeous. I actually read the captions for the photos more than anything else.
The book is quite inspiring with several flower types that you never thought to use, plus interesting wrapping of the stems.
My biggest cheer is for the size and quality of the photos. You can search online all you like for beautiful bouquets, and most of the time you get pixelated crap with colors that don't match the flowers at all.
Summary of To Have & To Hold: Magical Wedding Bouquets
One of the most anticipated experiences in every bride-to-be's wedding planning is choosing her bouquet. However, when faced with the real-life sea of styles and flowers, a bride-to-be may soon become overwhelmed. To Have & To Hold offers more than 150 unique bouquets, pictured in 200 luminous photographs, that incorporate scores of seasonal flowers both familiar and exotic, as well as flowering branches, pinecones, leaves, feathers, family lace-even fruits and herbs-to guide her in her decision.David Stark and Avi Adler escort the bride-to-be through today's maze of flowers and bouquet styles, identifying the indispensable basics: Labels and deconstructed bouquets name every flower. Lists of flowers available by season and by price help narrow the choices based on when the wedding will take place and what the budget is. Also included are practical details such as how to care for flowers, how to make your own stunning and cost-effective bouquet, how to hold the bouquet and then how to preserve it, and how to tie in boutonnieres, bridesmaids' bouquets, and flower girls' baskets. In addition, the authors' personal anecdotes offer sage advice on bouquet do's and don'ts.
To Have & To Hold has a bouquet to strike any fancy for every kind of wedding day.
