Flowers: Reception Centerpiece




So I would love to do silver candelabras with flowers on each table, but BUDGET is ringing in my ear. I think we may do 4 on the outside tables, it just depends what the pricing is. I really do love hydrangeas and since they are in season I think that is what i would like to do. I may pop another color...say just two purple hydrangeas in the arrangement? I just don't know if the plain green and white is too cold?

Flowers: Bridesmaid Bouquets



I really like white tulips and the contrast with the black dresses will look beautiful. I am going to add in some green, as well. I am thinking possibly small green hydrangeas or green berries. I have not found a picture I love...let me know if you see anything :)

Flowers: Ceremony



And for the ceremony...this picture is of my dream Church ceremony. Of course what makes, at least to me, is the beautiful wood work in the background which i cannot duplicate. I like the floral arrangements for the most part, a little twiggy. I found the other picture above and think I like it better. I am going to do two large arrangements on pillars. I am also going to have two candelabras. I also like the satin pew bows. I am going to just do bows for families like in the picture and I think I will add in a little floral arragement.

Flowers: Bridal Bouquet




I love the vintage simple look for my bouquet. I think I am going to add either buttons or a broach on the wrap of the bouquet as well. I am going to meet with the florist on Wednesday so I have been searching the internet for some ideas and thought I would share...let me know what you think!

Favors




The reception is going to be a dessert and coffee bar with light hor'dourves. In saying that, I found these adorable monogram cappacunio favor mixes
http://www.accenttheparty.com/inc/sdetail/8231> !! How wonderful!! I am also going to do a candy bar, but that will be open the entire reception because we are going to have lots of children.

I also love the above display of favors. I am not sure if I am going to use this, but I just think it is SOO cute and I need to find a way!

Guest Book and Card Box




I LOVE this guest book and card box. However, the price on both is a little much. I am thinking of making both of these a DIY. I can simply buy a black guest book and wrap it with green ribbon and a diamond broach. For the card box I found damask boxes on http://www.organize.com/photo-box-damask-print.html. I may even just use this instead of make the "present" look...I think it is something most people will not even notice :)

Monogram Madness







I would monogram everything if I could. I couldn't help but love these simple touches of monograming...hopefully I haven't gone mad with it. I am going to do the napkins in green. I LOVE the cake and I am still deciding what color I should do the bow in?
