Wedding Flowers

Your floral decisions can also be environmentally friendly. This doesn't mean you automatically have to use less flowers or local in season flowers (although those are great eco-friendly and cost effective ideas). Choosing a florist that run their business using environmentally friendly materials and practicee, florists who use recycled and enviornmentally friendly marketing materials, office supplies, and other non-floral related items are also a way to have a green wedding and not sacrifice your floral dreams.

Other ways to Go Green with your wedding flowers:

• hire a florist who is located near your wedding location to reduce travel distance.
• hire a florist that purchases flowers from local growers
• Hire a florist who's growers use eco-friendly fertilizers.
• choose flowers that are in season durring your wedding
• reduce the amount of flowers you use
• reuse the flowers after your big day (my mother in law created and grew potted flowers for our ceremony, we planted them around our house after the wedding)
• allow the florist to take the flower arrangements and reuse them for another order.
• reuse ceremony arrangements in the reception.

Reuse, Reduce, Repurpose - Vintage China

Vintage China Now Available!

The Rental Company has purchased multiple sets of vintage china to create a large collection of dishes that can now be rented for your vintage themed event. Each individual set has its own unique design that comes together with the others to make an eclectic grouping of design and that extra wow factor to your event.

If rented during the off season customers have the opportunity to pick their designs to create the collection that will best fit their event. During the wedding season dishes cannot be individually chosen however customers will find that our collection of vintage china can be interchanged and mixed with any of our vintage designs.

The Rental Company is excited to provide this new selection of dishes and is anxious to see how each customer will use them differently. We hope our customers will enjoy the new collection as much as we do.
