Maid for a Party

By Rae McConville

Having a large wedding party can pose many problems. Alleviate the stress by mixing and matching your group in different styles. Unify the look by choosing a few colors you love like we did here with brown, champagne, green and orange. Use your floral arrangements to pull it all together and you will have a look that is fresh and all your own.
