What YOU can do with your floral after the wedding...

[JonetteA]

I got to thinking about all of the beautiful flowers I am going to have on my day, and then how they are probably going to end up in the nearest trash can after our event. I am up in the air about my flowers, but all of the beautiful flowers that I am going to have on the tables, I am donating to the Make-A-Wish village. Disney is going to handle this for me. For those of you who don't know, Disney Hand is the "Disney Volunteer Network" they do all kinds of wonderful things for people all across the country. Disney Hand works with Make-A-Wish to make sure that these special kids have a memorable stay. Make-a-Wish has its own village for the children, and I am going to donate my flowers to those families so that they have something pretty and nice be around. If you are interested talk to your wedding planner and/ or the Disney Florist, they can handle this for you. If you are not using Disney for your floral, the WP can help you have this taken care of!!

That is a wonderful idea. You are very thoughtful and I know those families will truly appreciate the beautiful flowers during their stay at the Make-A-Wish village.

Kudos to you!

Hey-

I struggled with this same thing. We had all our flowers delivered to a nursing home in the area. We made sure that mousekeeping and the conceirge staff had first dibs to anything they wanted. Tey were very appreciative and thankful. After that, bell services came up and one of the runners delivered the flowers. I am glad someone gets to enjoy them! They were beautiful and we certainly liked the way our patio smelled!

We got two centerpieces home to my Mom's house. Of course, our male cat Pippin got sick in his cage so I took him out. He went climbing through them.... lilly pollen ALL over him! He looks hilarious- like he peed himself all over! The poor cats have both been sneezing since we got home

I also wish I had thought to do this as a favor instead of what I bought....
