Yellow Roses Wedding: Cake & Kokeshi Wedding Cake Toppers...

Custom Kokeshi Cake Toppers from HandPaintedLoveBoxes


bouquet by Martha Stewart Weddings...
Yellow Roses mean:
Joy, Happiness & mostly Friendship...

This scene from Kate & Leopold makes me Smile...
Charlie: I got to talk to you about this, okay?
                'Cause there's some *hit here that just cannot be said.
               Leopold: Did you assemble a bouquet for Patrice?
                Charlie: Look, you just can't tell a woman she's...
                "gracefully serene."
                Leopold: (tossing Charlie's bouquet aside..)No, no, this will not do.
                Charlie: Wha... Why?
                What is wrong with this one?
                Leopold: The orange lily implies extreme hatred.
                The begonia and lavender
                danger and suspicion, respectively.
                Every flower has a meaning, Charles.
                Might I suggest the amaryllis, which declares the recipient
                a most splendid beauty.
                Or the cabbage rose.

The Rose
Dedicated to our friend..
Kristi Bringhurst Clark
who lived a beautiful life & a great love story...

Some say love it is a river
that drowns the tender reed
Some say love it is a razer
that leaves your soul to blead

Some say love it is a hunger
an endless aching need
I say love it is a flower
and you it's only seed

It's the heart afraid of breaking
that never learns to dance
It's the dream afraid of waking that never takes the chance
It's the one who won't be taken
who cannot seem to give
and the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live

When the night has been too lonely
and the road has been too long
and you think that love is only
for the lucky and the strong
Just remember in the winter far beneath the bitter snows
lies the seed
that with the sun's love
in the spring
becomes the rose
