Mrs. Shortcake's Picture
Mrs. Shortcake, Vancouver Age and Occupation: 24, Marketing Manager/Children's Lit Writer Fiance's Age and Occupation: 24, Master's Student/Personal Trainer Engagement Date: August 7, 2007 Wedding Date: October 2008 Blogging Since: Venue: Ceremony in a historic church, tented lawn reception at a golf and country club About Me: 1950's housewife sent to the future, reborn as crafting-obsessed, jill of all trades.

About Mrs. Shortcake

It was sad really. Shortcake had had a nice run on the WB, and then, *POOF*, one pre-wedding visit to her floral event designer’s studio and she “kicked the bucket, shuffled off her mortal coil, ran down the curtain, and joined the bleedin’ choir invisible”…

Amazing! I want to know what the white and yellow round ones are too. They’re so cool! And I love the Monty Python reference in combination with the pretty, pretty flowers. :)

The pom dahlias make me drool (AliCherri1, that’s what the white and yellow round ones are I think). I think I also see some big fluffy dahlias in there too- so beautiful!

Ab Fab baby! The close-up picture definitely shows that 50’s vibe - there’s something to it, but I can’t put my finger on it. CAN’T wait to see the whole look together.

Gorgeous!

The white and yellow round ones are dahlias. So are the brighter pink ones in the bridesmaid bouquet on the left, and the petally white ones in the bride’s bouquet. I love dahlias! Then they’re budding, they look like the bud right below the yellow rose in the bride’s bouquet. Perfect!

An Old-Fashioned Kind of Love: Getting Ready, Pt. 2 » Weddingbee » The Wedding Blog

[...] I had been so excited about our bouquets. Thrilled beyond measure. And now the lovely creams and pinks and palest butter cream yellows had turned into a unified mass of heart-breaking brown. I stared at them and blinked. They were still there and they were still dead. My flowers had “kicked the bucket, shuffled off their mortal coil, ran down the curtain, and joined the bleedin’ choir invisible.” Dead, dead, dead. [...]
