A True Classic
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Keep in Mind that this book is going on 15 years and it is still relevant and beautiful. This book has been part of my collection since 1995. I work in the industry and still draw from this book. It is a thin book, but it has a strong impact.

Her ideas are classic, yet fresh
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
As a professional bridal consultant, I keep an extensive library of wedding related books on hand to help my brides design their own weddings. Ms. McBride's Bridal Flowers is one of my favorites. It is full of wonderful ideas - not just the traditional "must have" wedding flowers such as bouquets & boutonnieres, but the out-of-the-ordinary (but inspiring) boas, decorated lampposts & gilded calla lilies. Ms. McBride shows that flowers are for more than just being carried or worn. The large color photos are fantastic. So many other books have little or no photos, or hand drawn diagrams that leaves the reader wondering. Ms. McBride's book lets you see exactly what she is talking about. It doesn't claim to be a how-to book, but perfect to take along when visiting your floral designer.
excellent from a photographer's standpoint

Ms. McBride's style goes unsurpassed both in her presentation and the way her creative ideas together with an excellent photographer unfold. Move over Martha is what I have to say about this little gem. She is right on and I reccommend this book for anyone planning a wedding. Dont miss it. Nancy Cohn wedding photographer
