5 out of 5 stars My Kids Love It!.......2007-03-03

Kids don't have to be preparing for a wedding to appreciate the positive, inspiring words and images of the book. I love the narative which includes things like sports, science and entrepreneurship along with the classic "girl" stuff. I even read the book to my two boys so that they can understand that girls are a lot like them in experiences and aspirations.

3 out of 5 stars 10 Neat Things About Being a Flower Girl.......2006-03-23

Was a little disappointed with this book selection. Bought as a little gift for my flower girls and although they were 7,5 and 3, it was really only meant for the 3-yr-old. Nice illustrations...just didn't care for the list of 10 things!

5 out of 5 stars How Great to Have These Books at My Wedding!.......2004-12-11

I was recently married and was given these books by a friend. I had several children in my ceremony and I wanted to make the day as special for them as it was for me. The faces on my little flower girls lit up when I gave the books to them at the rehearsal dinner. They read and re-read them that night; they would not put them down! The day of the wedding the girls could not wait to perform their duties and I honestly feel that the books helped them understand the significance of the occasion. Even better, they were good as gold and knew exactly what to do. These books are great and were a wonderful way to wholeheartedly include the girls in the ceremony, as well as give them something fun to do at the boring rehearsal dinner!

2 out of 5 stars Not a great book .......2004-12-09

I purchased this book for my 4 year old niece for upcoming wedding and the 10 Cool things about being a ring bearer for my fiance's 8 year old nephew and was disappointed with both books. The text is virtually identical in both books (which wouldn't be a problem since they are going to two different homes) but the text isn't very compelling and is much too specific. I heard multiple comments of "we aren't doing that," "you're my aunt, not my sister" etc. She enjoyed another book I also bought which told the STORY of a young flower girl -- and she could relate to "she's just like me" instead of the confusing first person narration of this book. It DOES make a difference to a child if the narration is first or third person since they often view characters in stories as friends.

5 out of 5 stars The best flower girl book out there.......2002-12-07

Ms. Paine brings a warm, embracing tone coupled with an education on the "responsibilities" of being a flower girl that would have any little girl excited for her big role in this capacity. The illustrations are beautiful and it is an easy read. I am an event producer and can't keep enough of these in stock for my brides. They are very well received and loved and I even have friends of the bride calling wanting to know where to find these books. Well worth buying!

Book Description

The wedding bouquet, like the center jewel in the engagement ring, is a focal point for the celebration. The bouquet’s colors, arrangement, and even fragrance, can express the mood and style of the ceremony, from the bridal gown and attendants’ attire to the décor of the reception room. How to decide? Each of the 300 bouquets displayed here comes with lavish close-up photos and careful descriptions of each detail, with recommendations for the kinds of dresses and ceremonies they best complement. Every color theme receives special treatment (with price range indicators), from whites, ivories and creams to yellows and oranges, reds and pinks, blues and purples, as well as variegated and original color schemes.

3 out of 5 stars Pretty but not exciting.......2007-05-15

I bought this book when I was trying to plan my wedding, reading all the reviews I felt that it could be an excellent resource. On the good side, the pictures are really beautiful with close ups of each arrangement. It is also very well organized with each section focusing on the main colors in the bouquet. Unfortunately, I found the bouquets themselves to be completely unexciting, I got more ideas flipping through wedding magazines. There was not a single arrangment that I ended up showing my florist as an example.

5 out of 5 stars Just what I needed.......2007-01-18

HI! This book had just what I needed to determine what kind of boquet I wanted. It was all PICTURES of RELAVENT stuff and not just a bunch of words. Also it lists out what kind of flowers are in each boquet and what they mean. That is awesome!

4 out of 5 stars A great place to get ideas for your bouquet.......2007-01-10

This book has so many lovely, colorful photos of wedding flowers you will be spoiled for choice. I found it an excellent armchair guide to the many options out there for the bridal bouquet. Even if you have no idea where to start, this book will give you plenty of ideas for picking a stunning modern wedding bouquet.

4 out of 5 stars Wedding Bouquets: Over 300 Designs for Every Bride.......2007-01-04

It was a great book to get a lot of ideas from and had many unique looks.

5 out of 5 stars Wedding bouquet inspiration.......2006-11-06

No idea what kind of bouquet to choose? No problem. This book offers hundreds of full-colour pictures of stunning wedding bouquets. You might want to think about what kind of wedding you want before you pick it up, but if you have a theme, style and colour scheme in mind this is a great little book to turn to for floral inspiration. It's small, lightweight and packed with ideas - whatever colour scheme or style you're after there's bound to be a bouquet here that's perfect. It's also useful to take to your florist so you can point to the kind of thing you want as that way misunderstandings are avoided.

Book Description

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.

5 out of 5 stars as good as it gets.......2007-03-11

this book is as good as anything i have seen on this subject[and probably better than most]

5 out of 5 stars Breathtaking Floral Designs- Thank you David Stark!!.......2006-07-27

David Stark has done a wonderful job of giving us fabulous ideas and inspiration for couture floral. I appreciate this book because many times brides can't afford full-blown high-style floral designs, but she still appreciates the very best. This presents the very best to everyone. Thanks, David!

4 out of 5 stars a-m-a-z-i-n-g.......2006-06-09

THIS WAS A TRULY AMAZING AND HELPFUL BOOK THAT GUIDED ME TO MAKE THE BEST FLORAL DECISIONS FOR THE WEDDING THAT I ALWAYS DREAMED FOR.

5 out of 5 stars FABULOUS BOOK.......2006-06-09

"WOW!" Is all I can say. Finally a truly inspiring and helpful road map through the sea of floral choices. It was the perfect resource to show my florist what I truly love and want for my wedding. Thank you!

5 out of 5 stars beautiful and inspiring.......2006-06-07

[...] To Have and To Hold is undoubtedly one of the most elegant, information packed, stunning books on the subject that I have ever seen -- filled with photo after photo of lusciousness. There are probably over 200 amazing photos in this book, and I highly recommend it both for the bride to be and simply the flower lover. It has provided me with so much inspiration and information -- what flowers are available when, what flowers are beautiful to pair with others, what color combinations are gorgeous, and what the reality of my choices or floral dreams might have on my wallet -- this book is a MUST have. I can't find any others that even come close to the ground that this one covers with such sophistication!

5 out of 5 stars Like a cook book for flower arrangements.......2007-05-14

I am VERY pleased with this book. Each arrangement shows a complete "recipe" for making it along with step by step instructions AND pictures. I will save hundreds of dollars on my wedding flowers thanks in part to this book.

1 out of 5 stars Outdated Material.......2006-11-27

I am a florist and I am always looking for new and exciting ideas. I was looking forward to some "Creative Wedding Florals" and I got a book that is a throwback to the 70's. The Material is very outdated and shows nothing new. I was very disappointed. If you are looking for "Creative
", this is not the book for you.

5 out of 5 stars It may be the only book I need!.......2006-04-19

I ordered four or five books about Wedding Day flower arrangements, as I'm determined to do my own. When I received this in the mail, I was extremely impressed by how well everything is illustrated and explained. It makes it all seem very managable.
I highly recommend this one!

1 out of 5 stars Save your money.......2005-06-02

I read the reviews and thought this would be a helpful book, it wasn't. The designs are outdated, the instructions aren't clear. I actually found better instructions on the internet for free!!! Even the pictures aren't that great to look at.

3 out of 5 stars Helpful for Beginners.......2004-06-19

When my daughter took her ideas for her wedding to our local florists, the estimates were over $3,000. When we finished laughing, we bought this book. Even though we had very little previous experience with florals, with a little practice we were able to make quite a few of the things she wanted ourselves. And perhaps more importantly, we were also able to determine what we couldn't do ourselves, and how best to work with a professional florist.
We didn't use any of the designs from the book, but the clear photographs and step-by-step instructions made it well worth the price for the skill development it gave us.

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

From the ceremony arrangements to the posies for the bridesmaids, this comprehensive resource guides the happy couple through every aspect of floral decoration.

Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Informative on a basic level for brides-to-be.......2007-03-30

The first part of the book provides a list of favoured wedding flowers (with photos), and it gives a basic summary on their characteristics, seasonal availability and cost. The second part of the book contains a few DIY tips (not a lot) and a small gallery of centerpiece/bouquet designs, grouped by colors and themes.

The information in this book can be helpful for brides-to-be who are unfamiliar with the names of flowers, or what certain flowers look like. I personally think that the design examples are quite simple and unintimidating (ie. not flashy or over the top), and thus this book will be useful for brides who are looking for inspirations along those lines.

I recommend this book as a preliminary reference and it's a good start before meeting with your florist to discuss wedding flowers.

2 out of 5 stars Not too exciting.......2007-03-07

I didn't find this book very exciting. I looked through it and there's really nothing in it that I can use. I was looking for ideas for my wedding bouquet and I really got NONE.

3 out of 5 stars OK--but not the best.......2007-02-25

If you are looking for some floral tips and arrangement ideas, this book will help you with those ideas. However, if you are looking for an instructional book on how to make arrangements yourself, this book doesn't give enough information on this. (Yes, there is a small section in the book about making them yourself--but does not tell you how to make certain ones shown in the book). I would like a more informational--how-to-make boquet book. I might just have to write one myself!

5 out of 5 stars The knot book of wedding flowers.......2007-01-20

I bought the book used, but it looked brand new. I was pleased.

5 out of 5 stars Great basic guide for brides!.......2007-01-16

I found this book useful in that it was simple, straight forward guide to the most common flowers used in weddings. The first half is essentially a glossary of flowers. It provides basic information that made it easy to compare flowers: photo, meaning, colors available, when in season, and price range. The book also provides information on bouquet styles, color schemes, and flower arrangments, but I found the single flower photos most educational.

This book enabled me to have an intelligent conversation with my florist and narrow down which flowers I wanted for my wedding. I even took it along with me to discuss specific flowers with my florist.

I plan to lend it to all my friends for their wedding planning!

Book Description

What exactly does a flower girl do? What's the most fun part of a wedding? Does a flower girl get to wear make-up? What if she messes up?

A magical book--enhanced by sweet, quirky artwork that captures the wedding spirit-and a must for any child who's going to a wedding, participating in one.  

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Great price, cute book!.......2006-08-26

I got this book to help prepare my young flower girl for the big day.

3 out of 5 stars Christian-oriented with some questionable values.......2004-10-19

First of all, this book is fundamentally Christian non-denominational. The plot takes place at a church, so the book is inappropriate for Jewish weddings. [Although flower girls aren't part of a traditional Jewish wedding, many couples are incorporating it into ceremonies these days (because the kids are so cute and it saves them from boredom).]

The book is not offensive to other religions per se, so you could use it to give girls a general look at the role of a flower girl, but religion-based questions are likely to arise.

Secondly, the plot involves the flower girl putting on makeup. I wouldn't want to have my flower girl wearing, wanting, or expecting makeup.

Third, the flower girl's little brother doesn't want to be the ring bearer so he hides from his parents to avoid the task. I wouldn't want to plant this idea in a child's head.

Otherwise, the book is well-illustrated and colorful.

5 out of 5 stars Great Way To Get the Flower Girls Ready for The Big Day!.......2003-07-17

I actually gave this to my flower girls ahead of our wedding because they're very young and I wanted their moms to start preparing them with this story so they can know what to expect and be comfortable. It's a lovely book for the girls and their moms seem to really love it, too. Plus, it's so inexpensive! Definitely the best book I've seen as far as having a story kids can relate to and absolutely the lowest price.

5 out of 5 stars Charmed reader.......2002-03-01

What an engaging story! My children (both boy and girl), loved this book, especially the accidentally funny antics of the uninterested little brother. A great book to read over and over to little ones. Highly recommended!

5 out of 5 stars Perfect for your little flower girls!.......2001-10-11

Upon pondering what gift to get all three of my flower girls for my recent wedding, I came upon this book. Not only was it cute and informative for my little cuties, it was also an inexpensive and totally appropriate gift for each girl. The colorful pictures and cute story line helped assure all three of my flower girls that they were going to do just fine on the 'big day'!

4 out of 5 stars Suitable for your youngest flowergirl.......2006-08-08

This is a lovely rhyming story suitable for your youngest flowergirl. It's definitely in the 2-4yr old range. I bought it for my three year old niece who is flowergirl at our upcoming wedding and wrote in above each character our names and hers.

2 out of 5 stars The Flower Girl.......2006-07-14

Cute book, if all you are looking for is a simple poem. However, I would say less than average if you are hoping to really explain "flower girl" details, and processes to a little girl.

5 out of 5 stars Great Little Book.......2005-08-09

This book is really good to present to the young ones the day of the wedding to keep them occupied during the wait. It was in excellent condition.

5 out of 5 stars great.......2001-06-22

This is the most wonderful children's book - my children loved it.

4 out of 5 stars Great for the Little Angel in Your Wedding.......2000-06-24

This book uses a catchy poem to keep the reader/listener's attention. Great for "just learning to read" and young readers!

An excellent gift for any little petal carrying angel!

Book Description

“Flowers are love's truest language”: so wrote journalist Park Benjamin in the 19th century. The sentiment remains just as compelling today. As every bride-to-be knows, the right flowers are a fundamental expression of the perfect wedding.

But brides are often flummoxed when it comes to the specifics of realizing a beautiful and personal floral vision. Should the arrangements be lushly romantic or sleekly understated? Which flowers are best for the season when the wedding will take place—and for its setting? How much should you spend on flowers? (Where should you splurge and where can you cut back?) How do you go about choosing and working with a professional florist? Do you dare to try to make your own wedding bouquets?

These are just a sampling of the questions that Karen Bussen, one of the country's top wedding experts, addresses in Simple Stunning Wedding Flowers, the gloriously illustrated follow-up to her essential wedding-planning book, Simple Stunning Weddings. As always, Bussen offers advice that's as down-to-earth as it is aesthetically fresh and inspired. And her guiding principles—that “less is more,” and that breathtaking elegance is achievable on any budget—are sure to calm an overwhelmed bride's frazzled nerves.

2 out of 5 stars Basic.......2004-08-04

Each craft comes with a list of needed materials--very good. I see this as a basic 'how-to' for untrained crafters/high school wedding party on the cheap. If you think of changing some of the ideas for prom night, the real customer for this book is a high school junior

1 out of 5 stars Dont wast your money on it.......2002-08-06

I'm so sorry that i didnt read the costomer review before i buy it, it is so disapointed and all what the costomer says about it is true, blus no any creative idea, this book didnt provide you with any idea that can make your wedding party special, dont waste your money on it and try to find another book.

2 out of 5 stars Offers nice suggestions for various wedding crafts........1999-02-09

The book has some neat and wonderful creations but deals primarily with silk flowers for the crafts and it doesn't fully offer explanations or detailed instructions on some of the crafts. Most arrangements or crafts are primarily traditional older ideas, nothing with a contemporary touch for the 90's.

Book Description

With the help of this exquisite and instruction-filled guide, anyone can create gorgeous wedding arrangements with ease. It covers all the important points any designer must take into consideration: how to coordinate the flowers with the overall theme of the ceremony; where the arrangements will be needed, from personal boutonnieres to centerpieces at the reception; and how to work with a florist to get the blooms. Floral basics and how-tos range from important facts on color and composition to suggestions on bouquet shapes and their relation to the dresses. Most important are the various projects to duplicate exactly or use as a springboard, from lovely monochromatic themes to seasonal styles.

4 out of 5 stars The New Book of Wedding Flowers : Simple & Stylish Arrangements for the Creative Bride.......2005-09-30

The book has beautiful pictures and wonderful ideas. I wish it would identify all flowers and amounts used in the boquets.
I thought it might be more of an instructional book. It is a good reference.
