A bride's mom told me my centerpieces looked 'too happy' for a formal wedding.

She wanted 'somber elegance', so I swapped all the bright ranunculus for deep burgundy dahlias and added some moody, trailing amaranthus. Anyone else had a client request that made you pause for a second?

Too happy" is wild, I got asked for 'gothic garden party' once.

Oh man, my friend once got a request for a "sad clown birthday" theme.

Gothic garden party sounds kind of cool, actually.
