Italian Ranunculus

If you're looking for some exotic unusual flower for your wedding bouquet, look no further than the lush Italian Ranunculus, featured on the Gotham Gardens blog.

I love the look of the bloom on the left that's just opening, so you get all that vibrant red with the lovely green contrast.

The Gotham Gardens florists call it "lettuce ranunculus," given that the green insides get quite full and leafy looking when the flower is in full bloom.

Love-invites

I love the idea of having a variety of unique works of art as invitations for a very small wedding.

On the back of the card, you could put little thumbnail images of the pieces of art others received. Like little collector's editions!
