My floral quote got kind of expensive when FI and I started adding this and that.
So now I'm thinking...if I really think about it, I can probably decorate the cocktail hour myself. I'm making the pomanders for the ceremony myself, so I might save some $
Is this going to be a huge deal if I try and bring in some DIY decor for the cocktail hour? What about corsages and boutts? Are you ladies leaving all that to the florist?
Re: DIY any part of your floral?
Why not just do a crap load of votives everywhere? That's what I'm doing
I have around 150-200 votives that I'm going to use. You're welcome to them when I'm done using them.
My cocktail hour will be close to that bar facing the pools. They'll have some of the couches set up and bar stools/small tables.
Do you think I should just go ahead and do minimal florals and the votives like you are? It sounds like a really good idea.
I'd love to buy them when you're done. I was looking for some from you married ladies anyway. I'm sure there will be plenty of candle left, right?
There are honestly so many of them I'm sure there will be enough candle left. If not, all you have to do if freeze the glass to get the little candle pieces off and you can put more candles inside.
Save them for me
