Dear Auntie Dana,
We want to do our own flowers. We are going to the Farmer's Market to buy bulk flowers, then we'll make cute bouquets in these vases that we got at Michael's. Will that work?

Dear Flower Child,
Be sure that you have the temperament to fuss with flowers the day before your wedding. OK...decided that you don't? Use lovely potted plants with the colors of your wedding. Decided that you do?...here are some tips from Auntie Dana who has cleaned up more than her share of tipped over flower vases! Keep them low, with a wide based vase. A small bottomed (like Auntie Dana wishes she was) vase with a big bunch of flowers is verrry tippy.

Auntie Dana says: no bud vases or top heavy arrangements; especially outside.
