1: My favorite flowers are daisys, and orchids. I don't think I'll have any orchids in my wedding unless they are white. But daisys will fit well because I think im doing kind of a garden theme <3
2: I'm not too big on getting flowers I think the first time I got them was after a fight lol and it was red roses which I'm really not a fan of Forget flowers bring me chocolate chip cookies

Part one: My absolute favorite flower is the Lily! Since I won't really be having floral centerpieces, I made sure to ask for casablanca lillies in my bouquet and sorbonne lillies in my BM bouquets. The GM, RB, Fathers, and FH will all have hot pink calla lillies for their boutonnieres.
Part two: The first time FH gave me flowers was our first valentine's together. I was still in college and FH asked me what my favorite flowers were a couple months before. Well since he knew that I love sunset colors (orange and yellow), he sent two dozen orange and yellow lillies to me at college with a cute note. Only, when I received the flowers, he had accidentally ordered two dozen orange and yellow roses. Poor guy didnt really know the difference in flowers yet, so he thought he got it right. I loved them anyway and it's just something that has been added as an inside joke to our collection. So this Valentine's, he sent me 1 dozen pink lillies and 1 dozen red roses to my work as a reminder of the first time he sent me flowers and why I love him

My favorite flowers are sunflowers...I love all types of wild flowers! I'm probably not going to use them in my wedding, but then again I still have no clue what type pf flowers I'm going to have.
I think the first time FH got me flowers was for no reason...he just came home from work with a dozen roses for me!

1. I love hydrangeas (sorry Madonna), peonies, and garden roses. These will be in my centerpieces and bouquets for sure.
2. FH and I started dating in October and our first Valentine's day he cooked me a candlelit dinner and gave me red roses, and chocolate heart shaped box with my name on it, and a silver Tiffany ring. He put so much effort into that day and he didn't have to. I'll always remember it!

i love hydrangea, my mom always grew them in our yard and i just think they are so simple and beautiful! they will definitley be incorporated either as the center pieces or somehow in the bouquet!
ive been with FH for six years so sadly i cant remember exactly the first time he bought me flowers BUT when we first started dating i mentioned that my favorite flowers were yellow roses... my mom always told me they were my grandmas favorite (she died before i was born) and ive loved them ever since... and so he bought me them soon after i mentioned it! i was so suprised he remembered! (and was even listening to me talk about flowers! haha)

Part One: Peonies! Unfortunately, they're not in season so none at the weddddding.
Part Two: For our first Valentine's day! Red roses, on the table at a suprise dinner he planned for me at his house.. it was SO ROMANTIC!!!!! I thought he didn't plan anything and he told me that he was just gonna take me to Chiles.. and I was like.. OH.. GREAT! LOL But we stopped at his house because he forgot something and when I walked in, he had a whole dinner set up with candles and roses and stuff.. so cute!

Re: ~*~*~*My First QOTD Monday, 3/12/12*~*~*~
1.) My absolute favorites are gerbera daisies & regular daisies! I also love sunflowers! Gerbera daisies & regular daisies will be definitely be my wedding flowers!
2.) I feel like the first time my fiance' gave me flowers was this out of the blue, random night a few months after we started dating. I was at rehearsal for a show I was doing at the time & wasn't going to see him that night. Well, I was walking out of the theatre & I saw a guy standing near-ish my car & I tried to not make eye contact with him (plus I didn't have my glasses on!) hahaha and it wound up being my fiance' with a bouquet of daisies!! My cast mate was watching me because she wasn't sure why this guy was waiting for me at 11:00 at night .... I was like 'it's my boyfrienddddd!'... haha it was such a nice surprise!!

Re: ~*~*~*My First QOTD Monday, 3/12/12*~*~*~
I'm not really a big flower person honestly. I like peonies and anemones. So I think I'm going to try to convince FH to use yellow anemones in with the sunflowers in the boquets and centerpieces. Sunflowers are his favorite and he insisted we use them
The first time? I really can't remember (oops). We started dating in August, and I'm pretty sure I got flowers before Valentine's day but I'm not sure. Shhh... don't tell FH!

Re: ~*~*~*My First QOTD Monday, 3/12/12*~*~*~
I am not a flower person at all. But my two favorites (because of the wedding are) are calla lily and roses. Our centerpieces have silk cheery blooms because that FH favorite. But my boq will be all roses and calla lily and the girls I think are going to have calla lily but in pink. FH knows I am not a flower person. I use to tell him I rather one single rose then a whole bunch of flowers. So for my birthday (3 months of dating) he bought red rose petals from the florist and put them all over my car inside and out. It was cute but a pain to clean up.

My favorite flowers are orchids and roses. I hoping to have either of them in my centerpieces and bouquet.
FH gave me roses on our first date in May 2008. He arrived at my front door to pick me up and handed me a beautiful bouquet. He said with a smile on his face, 'You look beautiful. These flowers are for you.' I knew he was a true gentleman.

I like roses other than that I do not have a particular favorite flower. Since planning the wedding I have learned a lot more about flowers. I like stephanotis. My bouquet will definitely have stephanotis flowers in it.
FH only gave me flowers once a few Valentine's ago.
