My 1st DIY PIP

in African American Weddings
This is my 1st attempt at my DIY wedding centerpiece. I ran out of flowers so I will have to wait until I get more before I can round it out, I also think I may add a splash color in the arrangement what do you think? I'm not completely satisfied ofcourse because it's not done but I am more at ease knowing that I can do it on my own.

    Is it a night time weddin??
    IF it is...... Put some LED light cubes at the bottom.... THAT WOULD BE PHENOMINAL !!!!!!


    It is beautiful as is but, like u said,  A splash of color would be just amazing

    <div>Thats a great idea! I was going to add a splash of color in the arrangement but I love the look of the LED lights with the floating flower too. I'll have to price those. Thanks!!! </div>

    I agree the LED lights would be great or scatter petals/diamonds depending on when you need them and how many I would suggest eBay. just look up submersible led lights. & even though I don't celebrate halloween you can even find some in the store in the halloween section.
