The Dahlia and Zinnia Wedding

Who loves Zinnias and Dahlias?  I do, I do!  My mom stopped by this week and brought 3 vases full of fresh cut Zinnias and Dahlias and I was in love.  There is something so alluring about a heavily petaled bloom full of rich, vibrant colors that just sing.  A quick search on etsy and beyond proves that I am not alone in my obsession with these blooms!
