...smoked salmon, roast beef and shrimps in coconut (caviar and foie gras were eliminated for economy rea sons) spread in the State Dining Room not far from the multistoried cake. After an interval at the reception, Tricia will climb halfway up the red-carpeted grand stairs and toss her bouquet down to the attendants waiting below; if Tricia's aim is on, it probably will fall to Ed's 25-year-old sister Maizie, who will be a brides maid.

...Antoine in a courtyard. We see him attempting through some chemical process to turn white carnations into blue, green and violet flowers- but there is little sunlight and only temporary success.

There were other surprise gifts of flowers from Hughes' aides when we went on vacation. In 1966, when I was in New York for a brief visit from Viet Nam, I had a call.
