I'm using origami too, though not for the flowers. I can't remember what I was looking for now, but in my many googling expeditions I came across an old oriental tradition... brides making 1000 origami cranes for their wedding. Teaches patience needed for long and happy marriage, plus a wish comes true etc. Also people make these as gestures of peace after a girl from Hiroshima started to make 1000 and died before she could finish. I'm a hippy at heart, and a soppy romantic fool, so, I'm in. We've bought a really nice garden arch that they will hang from. I'm thinking we'll put it behind the cake table or something. Most people think it's nuts, but I love the sentiment.

I'm toying with the idea of using little origami lilys on the tables as decoration as well as in the bouquet. I'm also planning on having a go at making a fascinator with a lily on it although I'm worried that might be over kill. I originally planned on getting married in a pre-raphelite dress but because of finances I'm now more inclined towards a Vivien of Holloway dress which I think would look good with my bouquet.
