This February has 29 days and 5 Wednesdays.  Every leap day baby gets to celebrate on their actual day, not borrowing from February 28th or March 1st. Love is in the air with Valentines Day, and… we are starting a new February-only feature that we can look forward to each year: Wednesday Weddings! Each Wednesday we will highlight a wedding or wedding trend that is guaranteed to make you smile.

Today, our topic is succulents. I gush over succulents and have for years. However, I had no idea that succulents were being used by many brides in their floral displays — did you? Enjoy these pictures and if you are not a bride, or mother of a bride, try incorporating this look into your next party.  It’s gorgeous!

Succulents can be found at most local nurseries. They make beautiful wedding flowers, don’t they?!
