The Bridal Bouquet

Picking petals proved to be the toughest decision Janet faced. I changed my mind a million times, she says, sighing. But when the florist showed Janet the leonidas rose with its terra-cotta color, she fell in love all over again. The chosen bloom became the base of her bouquet (which also featured vendella roses and hypericum berries tied together with an ivory bow) and dressed the pews at Church of the Madonna on the Hill in Fort Lee where the Irish and Italian pair grew up.
