Blooms From The Heart can take those florals and repurpose them to make new arrangements, which are then delivered to local hospitals, hospice centers, homeless shelters, and other facilities. I have yet to work one-on-one with them, but this seems like a wonderful and smart idea to not be wasteful! Sure that beautiful centerpiece can sit pretty on your dining table for a couple days after a wedding, but it’ll do a lot more good brightening someone’s day who is less fortunate. =)
