Good ideas for a garden wedding?

I want a spring wedding set in a formal greenhouse with white linens, wooden tables and chairs, natural grass centerpieces and a string quartet. What else can I add?
I already have the location – it’s a formal indoor greenhouse.

giving away little seed packets would be a great idea. You can find them on a lot of favor sites and they say things like "may your love and happiness only grow with time."
Also, you may want to think about giving out paper fans to your guests if you think it may be warm.
Air conditioning. Greenhouses tend to be steamy and hot, and you’ll melt like an ice cream cone in there.
Depending on where you live, I would look into various botanical gardens – Milwaukee WI has a great one – as does Chicago, Richmond VA has 2 great wedding spots (Maymont Park and Louis Ginter) to rent. The University of IL in Champaign has wonderful gardens/greenhouses etc.
Call their events/public relations directors
Also, get a contingency plan for "April showers"
Craft store sell small terra cotta flower pots in all sizes. You could use these are favors by decorating them and putting a tea light or votive candle inside. I like the idea of using seed packets, you could put them in organza bags. You can find the organza bags fairly cheap. I would use a lot of natural colors like soft green, blue, browns.
I’m sure it will be beautiful!!
