And today, we are starting this Best Of series with one of my favorite wedding details ever… the florals. Whether it's spring or fall, flowers of all kinds speak a wedding's language. It can utter words of classic, rustic, organic, or romantic depending on the artist who arranges them meticulously, and they are power players on any wedding day. So without further ado… the best of florals from 2014!
