Wedding planning is a bit of a balancing act, isn’t it? Whether you’re trying to keep everyone happy with your guest list and seating plan, juggling your wedmin with that exciting new promotion at work or, more simply, trying to give yourself a few moments of peace and quiet before your next round with the budget spreadsheet begins... The trick is to find that all-important balance. Naturally, it’s all about the balance when it comes to your wedding flowers, too: after all, it’s a fine line between #extra and floral overload.
