    I love tulips and was originally thinking about doing simple bouquets of all tulips, maybe all white/cream/yellow. There will be in season here. Meeting with the florist in about a week. For the centerpieces I thought about buying potted tulip plants and putting them in really cute containers rather than doing arrangements of cut flowers, trying to save some $$. Has anyone used tulips in their bouquets? Has anyone used potted live flowers for centerpieces rather than cut flowers?? Suggestions or photos very much appreciated, thanks!!!

    I am planning to go the same route as you. Getting a bunch of white tulips and tying it together with greenery for my bouquet. I think tulips are gorgeous. Just make sure that if you get your flowers early they may droop. If that's a concern, ask your florist if they can run wire through the stem of the flowers to stop the flowers from falling over as much.

    @Olive12: Sorry this has nothing to do with this thread. I just wanted to say that you brought back high school memories with Kerropi!

    @knight.keira: I love all Sanrio characters but I have to say I have a soft spot for Keroppi. It was a sad day for me when the Sanrio store in the mall I frequented as a teenager stopped carrying Keroppi themed items. lol
