All my wedding flowers: Capricorn (Dec. 22 - Jan. 19)









When Capricorn makes the march down the aisle, the atmosphere must be elegant and tasteful. Flowers will be more than a mere accoutrement; they must make the Capricorn statement: "I have arrived!" Rare and mesmerizing hellebores would certainly fit the bill. Known also as the "Christmas rose," this pricey posy blooms in winter -- Capricorn's season -- and satisfies this sign's high-end tastes. Its evergreen leaves allow it to stand out so that its cup-shaped blooms can be properly beheld. Hellebore's sobering effects were deployed in Greek mythology to release the daughters of Argos from a bout with madness -- a feat any Capricorn would be most proud of.
