Is it not a poor wedding without so much as a flower

Flowers have historically held an individual meaning and love messages were sent containing a personal secret symbolic language. The innumerable variations of each individual flower make almost every bridal arrangement unique. Choose your wedding flowers that convey a special symbolic meaning for you both and the secret memory of that, forever known only to you. Myrtle traditionally symbolises fertility and the late Diana Princess of Wales had a piece of myrtle from Queen Victoria's plant placed in her bouquet. Carefully choose the flowers for your bouquet so long after the flowers and their scent have faded your memory will be uplifted by remembering their name.

Hi there you asked my about the Ingliston quilt show. It is on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. It is an exhibition of work, there are the results of quilt competitions and there are a range of traders. Traders will have fabric, books, sundries etc so it is a good place to stock up on patchwork and quilting materials and equipment. I hope you enjoy it. I am going myself on Saturday. I hope you enjoy it.
