Outfitting your wedding with gorgeous centerpieces can bite a huge chunk out of your budget, but it doesn’t have to. DIY centerpieces are not nearly as hard as they might sound, and you can usually produce something beautiful on a small budget. One of the easiest and cheapest ways to do centerpieces is to purchase curly willow or even long, tall branches. If you live in a wooded area, you can gather your OWN branches, leaves, pine cones, etc. Once you have enough, take some silver or white spray paint and cover all of the branches and leaves, then arrange them in vases. Too add some... |
Something old, something new, Something borrowed, something blue And something silver for you!

I was thinking of renting vases or purchasing them for anywhere between $7-$10 each, but f... |
When 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... |
Our beautiful centerpieces were yellow and white roses, by Anthony Brownie. The tables were also adorned with old books that belonged to my late grandfather. Tables were covered with white lace overlays and dishes inscribed with The Harvard Club logo.... |
