How is your bo-k wrapped? stems/no stems) POLL

I chose the whole thing wrapped rather than the stems exposed b/c they said it could have a chance of staining my dress.

I like the look of exposed stems better though.


1) whole stem covered



2) some stems exposed

Re: How is your bo-k wrapped? stems/no stems) POLL

good questions. I will be leave a little stem though exposed, bc I am going to sit that thing in a vase after i am done,..lol

Re: How is your bo-k wrapped? stems/no stems) POLL

hmmm i dunno....i think the stems are going to show.

Re: How is your bo-k wrapped? stems/no stems) POLL

I really like the stems showing, but I've also heard about leakage so I will likely have mine completely wrapped.

Re: How is your bo-k wrapped? stems/no stems) POLL

I had stems showing on mine and my girls, and i was a lil disappointed , cause i kinda envisioned the whole bo-k stem part wrapped but i never asked about it.....so she just assumed i wanted it partial . But in the scheme of things it was a minor thing to worry about

Re: How is your bo-k wrapped? stems/no stems) POLL

I never thought of that. I like the look with the stems showing, but I'd rather not take the chance of it ruining my dress because I will be taking pictures (with my bo-k) before the ceremony.

Christine, I have a great idea. I will give you a pair of my underwear to use as the fabric to wrap the bouquet in. This way, it can also be your something borrowed. Let me know which pair you want.

Re: How is your bo-k wrapped? stems/no stems) POLL

mine will probably be wrapped, but i really prefer stems on calla bouquets so i might go with that for my girls. we'll see...

Re: How is your bo-k wrapped? stems/no stems) POLL

i am leaving a little stem showing. the wrapping is going to be red with a black ribbon criss-crossing over it.

Re: How is your bo-k wrapped? stems/no stems) POLL

Mine has the whole stems covered for the same reason as you. I like the other way best, but I don't want to run the risk of having my dress destroyed.

Re: How is your bo-k wrapped? stems/no stems) POLL

I am having my entire stem wrapped.

Re: How is your bo-k wrapped? stems/no stems) POLL

I'm having some stems showing.

OK, I would like the pair in the 83rd b-pic you posted...uuurr, on 2nd thought, I want one of the new pairs you just got at marshalls

wasnt there a girl who all she had of her grandmas was a pair of underwear and she was wrapping her bo-k or making a hankee or maybe sewing it into her dress...

idk- it just made me think of that,,she was a frequent posted i think.

Re: How is your bo-k wrapped? stems/no stems) POLL

ok- im glad i went w/ the fully wrapped now. From what I hear, the photographers manhandle and position your bo-k so much that you risk a stem stain....i'd be

Re: How is your bo-k wrapped? stems/no stems) POLL
