BOXWOOD IS A WINNER!

The bride insisted the flatware be bundled a day before the wedding so all was ready for reception set up the following day. The problem was that she wanted a sprig of rosemary tied into each bundle. Even though I planted a good number of plants there was not enough. What to use instead that would look good the following day? Answer: boxwood! It worked like a charm!

 Colin and Gabby are tying boxwood sprigs to the flatware bundles with black gross grain ribbon. These were placed on top of the napkin centered on the plate. Since we did this a day before the reception, boxwood proved to be a perfect choice for greenery as it looked freshly cut 24 hours later!
