Spring Flowers

I work on Michigan Avenue in Chicago and one of the many perks of working on the Magnificent Mile, aside from the great shopping and the great restaurants, is that every season the City of Chicago updates the scenery on the street. In the winter they install twinkling white lights, in the fall they have pumpkins and a cornucopia of other vegetables, in the summer they present student art projects and in the spring they have flowers! Since it is, and has been, spring there are tons and tons of flowers on my street! Tulips, geraniums and other vibrant beautiful plants flood the sidewalks. These flowers inspired me to do a post on flowered wedding gowns. Now I know some people may be turned off by the idea of flowers on a wedding gown and they may have horrible 1980’s flashbacks but, currently there is a plethora of wedding gowns that incorporate flowers in just the right way. But you don't have to take my word for it, see for yourself...
