    Hi there,

    I'm planning our wedding for next March, and thinking about flowers. I'm not a huge flower person, so I'd rather use something pretty, cheap, and all of one kind. I'm trying to envision what bouquets, wrist corsages, and boutonnieres made from white chrysanthemum would look like, but I'm finding nothing online. Am I really the only person to have ever thoguht of this? Will my idea look nice?

    I think it could be stunning

    Found several pictures - google white mums bouquet centerpiece etc

    You might get some comments because they can be seen as funeral flowers in some culture but they are striking and keeping it to all one type of flower will have the biggest impact

    I think it could look nice. Where are you searching? I just googled white chrysanthemum and there were a ton of pics :)

    Also, if you're not a flower person there are tons of other options out there!

    Thanks for the photo! That's just what I'm thinking of. Not sure why my Google skillz are so weak today, all I'm finding are photos of mixed flowers.

    I do know that some people associate mums with funerals, but it's ok with me. My dad passed away very recently, and it will be quite sad for me to walk down the aisle without him. If mums add a touch of rememberance to the day, that's ok.

    I won't be needing floral centerpieces, since the venue has tons of candles and candelabras for every surface, so I really just will need flowers for bouquets, corsages, and bouts! :D

    I believe mums are a fall flower.  Your wedding is in the spring.  Though I think it will look lovely, you may need to consider something else.
