Our premium rent and return florals arrive directly to Brides three days before the event date and can be ordered in as little as 10 business days in advance!” – Lauren Bercier, Co-Founder, Something Borrowed Blooms

Tuesday, July 17, 2018

Your wedding flowers comprise a large chunk of your budget, which is why many modern couples are turning towards a faux alternative.
