Hi Everyone!
For my centerpieces I'm having my flowers arranged in a wood box rather than a glass vase. The florist said if I could find these on my own it would a lot cheaper. Any advice on where to find a box such as the one below?

You will also need to have some sort of plastic liner. This could be difficult and more expensive than you think. You will need to make sure whatever you purchase can hold water and doesn't leak, even if you are using a plastic liner.

You might want to post this on your local. If you were in LA I would suggest going to the flower market. Does NJ have one of those?

Is your FI crafty and handy?? My FI is making wooden rectangle flower boxes for our long tables, and round tree trunk centerpieces for our round tables.

Have you checked out your local craft store? They usually have a section that has wooden pieces.
But like PP said, if either you or your FI is handy, boxes are easily made from scratch and then can be stained to whatever color you want.

Produce stores. Ask the owner or manager to keep the wooden boxes that the produce comes in. If you like clemintines, one brand always comes in those boxes. I forget which though
