Sample Arrangement from my Florist!!!! PIP

kd1986

I'm so excited over this that I just HAVE to post a picture.  Because I wasn't comfortable seeing what my flowers would look like for the first time on the day of the wedding, I asked my florist to do a sample centerpiece arrangement for me so I could make changes if I felt the need.  This is not what MY flowers will be (mine are all ivory roses), but these will be all the tall arrangement for the reception.  I'm seriously IN LOVE with them!  The burgundy roses in the vase will be submerged in water the day of.

I LOVE tall centerpieces too!  Those look great, even though the flowers will be different.

Previewing the centerpieces is a great idea, that way you can make sure you like them and make changes if necessary.  My florist makes a sample centerpiece too, but I think he uses the same flowers that will be used for our wedding.

I should probably clarify :)  Those are the exact flowers/arrangements being used for my wedding, with the exception of my bridal bouquet being all ivory :)  But that tall arrangement, colors and flower types is exactly what will be on the tables!!

I love tall centerpieces. I will have a mix of tall and shorter centerpieces. the tall ones will be tall cylinder vases with twigs wrapped on the inside and calla lilies, roses and dahlias on top.

Oooh, very pretty! That's a good idea. I think I'll steal your good idea and ask my florist to do the same thing (when I get one!!)
