March purple page

In the March purple page, I write about the possibility of making your wedding bouquet as a way of cutting down on costs. Of course this would only work for the creative, do-it-yourself bride, who would be willing to investigate and experiment with flowers, ribbon and bouquets handles. More information and ideas on bouquet making ideas can be found on: http://www.save-on-crafts.com

The project would have to be taken on with a friend or a sibling so that they can make the bouquets on the wedding day. It would not only be about saving money but also about learning a new art and about developing personal creativity; something that we don't have much time for because of our busy schedules.  

Making a Victorian wedding posy from eighty roses would cost as little as 17.000= Ugshs (USD 8.5), the roses would cost 10.000= the gysophyllia about 2.000=  from Harver Florists on Sure House. The  bouquet handle would cost 5.000= from Decor Plus on Uganda House. In making your wedding posy, you would save at least 13.000= Ugshs on each bouquet for the bridesmaids since many decorators charge about 30.000= for each posy.
