A Flower Wedding Described by Two Wallflowers

Step into a garden transformed into a grand wedding celebration, where flowers take on human names, manners, and roles. Young Lad’s-Love is marrying Miss Meadow-Sweet, dressed in a lily-white gown while Sweet William stands proudly beside her in red. Violet, Primrose, Marygold, Forget-me-not, and a host of other blossoms gather to form the wedding party, while eccentric relatives and distinguished guests lend the occasion a playful, storybook charm.

Told in lively rhyme, this fanciful tale invites listeners to spot the many jokes hidden in familiar plant names and traditional wedding customs. The ceremony leads to a sumptuous feast, curious gifts, music, dancing, and a journey in a Venus’s-fly-trap carriage—though one missing box threatens to cause a memorable commotion. With its gentle humor, ornate imagination, and richly patterned botanical language, this is a delightful listen for families, poetry lovers, and anyone who enjoys seeing the natural world bloom into character.
