CenterpiecesFlowers are one, if not two things 1) expensive and/or 2) a DIY challenge…at least in my humble opinion. And honestly, there aren’t a whole lot of bright floral colors happening in the Pacific NW in January anyhow. This is why we have opted for flower minimalism, especially when decorating our 18 or so tables! My inspiration is this: {Photo via Wedding Bee Boards} I plan to have a single cylindrical vase on each table; which you can purchase in bulk from The Dollar Tree for, yes, $1 each!!!. I was thinking of renting vases or purchasing them for anywhere between $7-$10 each, but f...

CenterpiecesWhen I was trying to figure out my centerpieces, my florist gave me a low cost option. But I wasn’t too thrilled about it. I knew it would be inexpensive (about $130 for 20 tables TOTAL) but it would just be a low bowl with floating candles and 2 gerber daisies floating in the water. So I researched online for ideas and came up with something I am pretty excited about. I am going to create 4 paper flowers (1 green, 1 pink, and 2 white) and put them in tall vases with water beads. Are your centerpieces a floral alternative? Personal Photo Personal Photo...

Awesome Bouquets Used As CenterpiecesI love these photographs from a wedding we designed a few weeks ago. We can thank The Observatory for capturing these images. My bride wanted all bold colors with bright chartreuse green. We created her bridal bouquet of hot pink Dahlias, Nerine’s, Orchids, Roses, Gloriosa lily plus the very last of the Peonies. We added a filler flower called Alchemilla for the bright green pop. We really went wild with the maids bouquets giving them tons of purple, deep pink, yellow, fushia tones and the bright green. We used the Gloriosa Lily, yellow Tulips, purple Stock, hot pink Orchids, purple ...

centerpieces vs vignettesI've been thinking about centerpieces a bit lately. More than likely, when you're talking about a wedding, the centerpiece is a bouquet of sorts. No doubt, we've all seen our fair share of centerpieces. The Knot has an entire photo gallery dedicated solely to centerpieces; some small, some tall and so on. Fortunately, when you're talking flowers, you don't need many to make an impact. Simple can be just as beautiful. What's also beautiful is the idea of creating a vignette. Defined as a "short, impressionistic scene that focus on one moment or gives a particular insight into a character, idea,...

our diy centerpiecesI already posted about the beautiful bridal bouquets we created for the wedding - now I want to tell you how we made our lovely floral centerpieces. We used FiftyFlowers for this feat too - and in order to keep everything as simple (and cost effective!) as possible, we purchased pre-made centerpieces from them.(those are the mountains we got married on!)The types of flowers I wanted for our centerpieces were hypericium berries, thistle, and bupleurum - they all held that "wildflower" look. We could have purchased these flowers in bulk separately, but they offered dozens of pre-made...
