The Bouquet Flowers can be dried, turned into potpourri or individually pressed within the pages of a book.

You can get tulips at any time of the year. Try growingtulips.com They have very pretty tulips available year round. Since you like tulips and are having your wedding in the fall how about stay with a purple, orange, and yellow theme and have each table set with a different color? Tie your bouquets with some pretty ribbon, and have vases to set your bouquets in on the head table. Use 3 tulips for a corsage, and one for a boutonniere. :-)...(Answered by California Wedding Florist)
