I’ve been having problems with the file size, but little did I expect the lovely Dash to work his wonders so that I could post it here on LMW. Thank you Dash.

There must be lots of you getting married in Spring that are looking for inspiration and ideas for your flowers. Well, if you’re anything like me, and don’t even have a clue what will be in season its definitely worth thinking about including hyacinths in the mix…
