What does a flower grower wish every couple knew a What does a flower grower wish every couple knew about their wedding flowers? For our Garden Issue, we went right back to the source – the growers who plant, nurture and harvest the blooms that eventually make their way into your bouquets and wedding arrangements.⁠ ⁠ We spoke with John and Vikki of @warraviewdahlias about the importance of seasonality, local sourcing, and the incredible care and patience that go into growing these beautiful flowers. ⁠ ⁠ Read more in our Garden Issue via the link in our bio.⁠ ⁠ [Image description: A close-up of a pale yellow and creamy white dahlia in full bloom, held by a person in a soft pink patterned dress. The flower fills the foreground, with its layered petals and fresh green stem in sharp focus, while the person and neutral background are softly blurred behind it.]⁠ ⁠ #PolkaDotWedding #FeelGoodWeddings #TheGardenIssue #GardenWedding #GardenWeddingInspiration⁠
