   You are so lucky not to be weighted down with tradition like so many heterosexual couples!

   Essentially, the choice is yours for personal flowers: you need to choose what suits your own style. If you are both wearing bridal dresses then a bouquet each would seem appropriate, but do remember that you and your girlfriend must either match or contrast with your flowers ,as with your dresses.

   Less dressy options might include one or both of you in trousered suits with floral buttonholes, ladies suits with corsages, summer dresses with flowers in your hair, or in garlands.

   While male couples have slightly fewer options without being too outrageous, remember that the kilt is an option for anyone with the slightest Scottish connections, and that gorgeous orchid buttonholes can add to any outfit

   For the reception its pretty much anything goes like any other big social event. Why not celebrate with the most spectacular flowers you can and make the day even more memorable?

   Remember it is all down to you to make your own tradition, which can be copied by all who follow you.

   I love reading your various articles and have you in my favourites list. I have been arranging flowers for television and film for many years but am always interested in new ideas. Thank you. Ada
