My decoration plans!

Melissa, on November 18, 2016 at 21:27 Posted in Wedding reception 0 15

I've been collecting ideas fro decorating our reception venue. The venue supplier single stem flowers in slim glass vases, but we want to add to that a bit! We will add more yellow flowers with a lot of these all green displays too

I think I might put the flowers/ lemons on mirrors with the candles...but I worry that on small coacktail table that might be too big?

Let me know what you think- and if you have any suggestions Smiley smile

    That is the plan! I've also started some sage indoors, we'll see if I actually have enough by June!

    I think it's all beautiful. I like the lemons too, it does add a nice touch of colour and it's different.

    I don't feel like that! I mean everyone will have different opinions when they see it so I am sure some might think that way but my first thought was that it was a fun and colourful idea that worked well with your dress!

    I love these ideas! The sage is a great touch and I LOVE the lemons! It adds some natural colour and looks beautiful!

    I agree with you that for the cocktail tables you probably want to keep the decorations minimal so there's room for the guests to put their drinks, food, purses, etc. If you can, I would recommend bringing a couple centerpiece options to your venue to try it out before you make them all so you can see what size works best. That's something I noticed about our wedding, the idea in your head vs. how it actually works the day of! We had a mixture of rectangular tables and round tables and the rectangular tables were more narrow than I was expecting so I had to get a little creative with the placement of our book centrepieces!

    Can't wait to see how it all turns out!

    Thanks Chelsea! I'm really glad you ladies agree that my theme is coming together the way I thought it was!

    You don't think lemons feel too outdoor- spring like??? I'm going to have a tough choice! lol

    I actually like the lemon idea because it is fun and colourful and I think it would work with your dress and everything because a tea length dress to me is all about fun and personality! I am also a fan of all the other decorations to

    They are all very pretty for your garden wedding! I love the candles with the sage! Looks great! I have to admit I'm not a fan of the lemons though. The flowers are really pretty mind you. With your tea length dress, I can see it coming together Smiley smile
