Centerpiece inspiration

Jenten428, on April 12, 2019 at 3:44 PM Posted in Style and Décor 0 4
So we are having our reception with a family style meal, meaning all food will be brought out and placed on a lazy Susan in the middle of the tables. Has anyone done this? I am struggling to figure out what to do for affordable centerpieces

    I have seen/attended weddings where this was done. Honestly, I wouldn't even worry about centerpieces. If you absolutely want to do something, just do a simple floral, thin vase deal. With the food being on the table, centerpieces may get in the way. Keep it super simple or just eliminate them and save yourself the cash!

    Same situation! My food is being served family style, so small centerpieces were a must. All in all I spent probably $200 on all the supplies for 10 of these (not pictured are the table number holders and table numbers which will go near the front of the wood slice). My colors are ivory, blush, and sage green, and I'm going for a somewhat rustic style!

    Wood slices I actually got a little bigger from etsy, flowers and lanterns from IKEA, and I DIY'd the rope around the base of the flowers.

    Hey Jenten428!! Small and affordable centerpieces are completely doable! Pinterest is a really great resource for inspiration pictures. I had a search for some small, yet elegant centerpieces that would fit at the center on a Lazy Susan.

    As I was searching Pinterest, I also came across this style of Lazy Susan that would work for a larger centerpiece. I have never seen one like this before. It's such a great idea!!
