Floral Abundance

In preparation of a wedding in 1992 this was the first floral book I had ever read, and I loved it immediately! With wonderful photographs that evoke feelings of the Elizabethan period, and lush English gardens it is visually stunning to look at. While most of these arrangements do represent a larger, free-form style, they also exemplify rich color, and texture combinations that are less common in today's magazines.For couples who will base their wedding around a period theme, or plan to have an outdoors event I highly recommend this book. Also keep in mind that professional florists can downscale most any arrangement should its size become an issue.Though admittedly not a "step by step" manual it lists complete information for each theme throughout the book, and does contain basic instructions towards the back. However, for brides that desire to make their own bouquets I would not suggest this serve as your guide unless having had prior experience.A companion book too this one which may seem more up to date is "Festive Flowers" by Paula Pryke. It contains unique, and vibrant designs that are a must see.
