Why wouldn’t a couple of horticulture geeks include plants in their wedding ceremony? It seemed completely normal that before the day was over, we would end up with a little dirt on our fancy clothes. Like we say around here, a little dirt never hurt!
If you’re getting married this season, consider planting something during your ceremony. We have a lot of customers who choose trees, shrubs, and even houseplants to pot up during their celebrations. Choose a gorgeous container, and make sure the plant is watered, but not dripping, for the ceremony.
All You Need Is:
A beautiful piece of pottery
A healthy plant, big enough for your guests to see
2 hand shovels
Potting soil (put it in a container, rather than just splitting open a bag and making a mess)
Watering can
A great song to play in the background
That’s it! Truth is, our wedding day was a blur and I don’t remember what variety the rose was, but it’s beautiful and we get to enjoy it blooming each year.
