First Look: Rose and SnapdragonsSnapdragons are a favorite flower of mine to use and are often overlooked by brides. It comes in a nice variety of colors and shades, including pink, white, yellow and lavender.
Second Look: Blue Delphinium and StephanotisUsing delphinium and stephanotis instead of snapdragons gives this cascade a whole, new look! Delphinium comes in light blue, dark bright blue and off white. The stephanotis and stock flower give the bouquet a wonderful fragrance.
Florists used to wire in a long cascade. That's still advisable if the flowers are particularly large or heavy. But for most cascades, using a product called Floralock helps keep all the flowers tightly fitted into a bouquet.
