At the last moment before the ceremony the “Something Blue” handkerchief was no where to be seen

Semia Dunne of FLOWERS by SEMIA came up the stairs with this amazing solution …

What made this wedding so unique was that the  flowers  came from the  gardens of the property.

They were so beautifully arranged by Semia Dunne of FLOWERS by SEMIA.
