The Bridal Bouquet - Unique as the Bride Who Carries It

Used to be . . . the bridal bouquet represented a maid in bloom.  The
herbs she chose symbolized fidelity, wisdom, fertility, happiness,
wealth, and long life.  It was Queen Victoria, who influenced many modern
wedding traditions, popularizing the use of fresh flowers over herbs and spices.
