Where to put bouquets

A heavy cut or pressed glass vase that won't tip due to the height of the flowers is best.

View Quoted Comment So still put them in a vase but just make sure its heavy? Sounds good. Since they're too big for the head table should we put them in places like the cake table, guest book table ect?

I would consult your florist. Your florist should have some great ideas and advice for you

View Quoted Comment Yes. Or ask for a small occasional table for them all against a wall close to the head table.

View Quoted Comment I'm a DIY girl but I am purchasing them from Fifty Flowers so Il contact them. I'm sure they can at least guide me on what size vase to get.

View Quoted Comment That's a good idea too. Thanks!

Totally get that! In that case, I'd contact the company you'll be purchasing them from for advice on what size vases to get

View Quoted Comment I grow flowers, rather than engage in floral artistry. But something I find irritating at really fancy weddings, when they display long or armheld bouquets, is that while I love them in a cut or pressed glass you cannot see through, with a wide mouth or a china vase , solid or with a pattern,
florists or venue people follow the current fad. They use see through vases. Lots of stems in your shape bouquet, so that on display the stems overpower the flowers.
I prefer:
or:
They do side tables or shelves in clear cylinders, appearing to be all stems.

Just because the thin glass cylinders are in fashion does not mean they suit every arrangement. I prefer opaque, glass or pottery, and shaped large at the bottom, then inward, then wide mouth to spread those tall flowers.Great shape ( if not clear):
That, and they need to wet the bottom inch at most, so it is absorbed. Not 5 inches water, so when you pick it up again ribbons are soaked and they feel like cold cooked asparagus.

View Quoted Comment Wow those are all really great tips I hadnt thought of..thank you so much!

You could stand it up against a table leg as decor?

View Quoted Comment Ya know they are actually tall enough that it could work since they're so tall thank you
