I love creating wedding centerpieces. They allow you to show your individual style and can provide that 'wow' factor to a reception venue.
You've probably seen pictures of celebrity weddings with lavish arrangements. The cost of these can soon add up. With an average reception having 8-12 tables they can quickly swallow your budget.
Here I've put together some ideas from real-world brides for your wedding centerpieces.
Design Tips
The main thing on people's mind at a wedding reception is chatting to old friends, listening to the speeches and generally socialising. Don't let your arrangements get in the way of this. If guests have to move your arrangements to talk to the person on the other side of the table, then you've failed.
Low Wedding Centerpieces
A classic low centrepiece is a posy arrangement of flowers that co-ordinate with the bride's bouquet such as roses and tulips.
For a modern look that is a bit different you could take a collection of different sized vases and use them as the basis for a centerpiece. Fill them to different heights with water and place various types of flowers in them. Colour co-ordinate them by using coloured granules in the bottom of the vases. Above is a photo showing this idea with cymbidium orchids.
