I was watching the show Platinum Weddings, and watching these people spend many of thousands of dollars on flowers and other decor. Including thousands on things such as diamonds to go on the cake and flowers and so on and so on. I mean flowers in abundance, just everywhere! So of course, all that I can think about is, what do they do with all that stuff after the wedding??? I would just hate for all those beautiful flowers and such to go to waste. Now if I was that bride, or planner I would have maybe taken them to church, or decorate the house. But the best thing that I could think of to do is find someone else who may be having some sort of event after, and then donate them. I know what you're thinking, but you'd be suprised how long flowers can last sometimes. It would help someone save money on an event, and you get to put those Expensive flowers to use! So brides to be, birhday girls/and boys, etc.etc.. Visit a few of the local florists in your area and ask them about some of the events they are working on, they may be reluctant, but it's worth a shot. They may even put you in contact with their client so that you guys can make a deal of some sort. Some of you might be thinking "Thats Tacky"! Well remember not everyone is in a position to PAY for a platinum wedding but that does not make them any less worthy of one.
JUST THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX!
It's our pleasure to help make you vision possible!
Here is the link to a site I found once I thought about this. It's great to know something like this is out there.

Ok So, I've become pretty passionate about showing people that It's POSSIBLE to put an event together, big or small on a budget. I'll keep it simple, If you don't have Platinum wedding money then you can't have a Platinum wedding or event. BUT you can take what you do have and make it work and make it nice. So I'll be sharing my thoughts on any and everything pertaining to the wedding and event planning of it all and I can't promise that I won't go off subject from time to time.

Moral Dilemma
I recently found myself faced with a moral dilemma. Then again I guess it wasn't much of a delimma because the decision was easy and I already had my own answer. Sometimes you just need a co-signer.
I'll just say that my decision may have been bad for business but good for my Soul.
