Hey Everyone! I'm a little over a week away from the big day and JUST realized I completely forgot about 4 large reserved table centerpieces. I have 10 regular tables and 4 large ones. My plan was to use my girl’s bouquets to dual as the centerpieces for the tables... 10 BM and 10 tables perfect! And I saved big bucks. WELL... Now I'm in a crunch for 4 more centerpieces. I want to have nicer centerpieces for the reserved tables (it’s our immediate families and bridal party tables) so I think I'm just going to use flowers from the local grocery store and a lot of baby's breath to make them nice and full. Does anyone have advice as to what flowers grocery stores carry and which ones are the cheapest? Also if anyone else has any other ideas on large centerpieces ideas, that would be super helpful. I was also thinking about using candle sticks on either side of the centerpiece to cover more space if that makes sense.
OMG, you are in a time crunch. You could try Costco they have some great flowers and their pricing is really good. You could also go to the dollar tree and get some floating candle vases and candles and use those on the tables as well. Good Luck
Yes, try Costco/Sam's Club/BJs, their prices really can't be beat. You could also ask the flower departments in your local grocery store. They're probably all going to be priced about the same - just call and ask around!
Thanks ya'll!! I don't have a Costco near me but I will definitely call Sam's Club. I believe my Future MIL is a member so that may work! What do you think about just using baby's breath in a pretty vase? It would be pretty cheap and I could get it just about anywhere...? But would that be tacky? Thoughts?
And thanks for the floating candle option @my true love... I looked in to the cost of bowls and they are pretty expensive around here. And I don't think I have time to order them. But they are very pretty. :) Thanks!
I'm using Baby's Breath In nice vases with a ribbon around it in my wedding Colors at the ends of my head table with some small vases (like the little ones on the tables in fancy restaurants that hold 1 or 2 flowers) with small amount's of Baby's Breath every couple feet down the table in between. It will be simple and elegant...not cheap...go for it, you can buy bundles of Baby's Breath for about $10 each.
Order flowers from FTD or something and have them delivered the day prior to the wedding :) Then you can get what you like. Or go to a grocery store an pick something, FTD, proflowers or other sites should work
