Hi,
Flowers were ordered the week before and flown in from Amsterdam Wednesday before the Saturday wedding so they could be fully open. Had to buy them by the box full hence the bounty featured. Peonies in the apt. came from Union Square as well as the phaelanopsis grown on Long Island. The orchids were in honor of MM’s and my mother who grew them in her garden and the blue and white pots in honor of our grandmother who collected antiques. They were then there in spirit for the occasion.
We could have used a few more hours to use up all the blooms but the arrangements made were very beautiful and added to the elegance of the evening. Thank you MM!

Jody, notice any 16th century distorted maps of the Philippine archipelago in those auctions? We have a small collection of old distorted maps but prices in the last decade have become astronomical... I think I even have a post on old maps somewhere in the archives, ah here it is... natie, thanks again for the identification!
