Centerpiece secrets...shh!
Centerpieces are a huge part of your ceremony. But, they are also a huge part of your budget! There are a lot of ways to budget your centerpieces and a lot of secrets to making a statement without blowing your budget!
Secret #1: Less is More
Ok, so you want colorful, gorgeous centerpieces, but you want them low cost...
Here's a fabulous idea!
These are actually from a wedding I helped with last summer. The idea is, you are only paying for 5 flowers (gerbera daisies too which are fairly inexpensive!) but by putting them each in their own vase, you cover a lot more table and have a much larger, statement making centerpiece! You could do all the same color, all different, whatever you want! And I love the larger gerbera in the middle- really gives it some height!
Here's another similar centerpiece. This features three different flowers: hydrangea, gerbera daisy, and a few mini roses. We also sprinkled some shells and sea glass on the table. This was actually from a rehearsal dinner- so pretty! Look how much table this covers at such a low cost!

Secret #2: The High-Low
Tall, towering centerpieces are amazing- but expensive. They can also be a bit overwhelming if you have a smaller space.
Still want sky high florals? Here's a great idea!
Do half your centerpieces high, and half low! This adds depth to your reception area and creates an interesting contrast for all of your guests to admire! Plus, you only have to pay for half of the centerpieces to be tall. This was also done by Tracy at "Your Florist"
Secret #3: Reuse and Recycle
So, you pay hundreds of dollars for your bridesmaid's bouquets...then when the reception is over, they are tossed on a table and forgotten about! Why not reuse those gorgeous bouquets? Use your bridesmaid's bouquets as centerpieces! Just stick them in a vase and voila!
Hope these floral secrets are helpful!
