flower advice

so i have really been stressing about the cost of flowers recently and trying to research my options. I originaly wanted to go with all white/cream flowers with a little touch of purple to go with that romantic classic elegant look; however, i have quickly realized that these types of flowers (lillies, hydrangeas, roses) cost the most. so then i started to think more about the venue and what would complement the space best. the ceremony is an outside garden/stone area which leads right into the cocktail hour space which is half an insie sun room and half outside overlooking the fountain lake. then the reception is in a ballroom with a two story grand staircase with waterfall garden behind it. therefore after doing some searching of previous couples who have gotten married there to see what they did, I found this very unique idea on my photographrs blog. I included some pics for your review, but what do you ladies think? For th cocktail hour space there would be just a simple wine glass on each table with a single flower and beads in it. then for the reception space each table would have 1 medium or 3 small vases/jars with either a single or handful of unique flowers. It sort of gives the impression that they were all freshly picked fro ma garden somewhere. In other words, adding onto the "secret garden" theme I was originally inspired by. Then for the table numbers I would have an assortment of unlabled wine bottles with the table numbers coming out of the cork. I still would want to see if a florist could assemble all of this for me, but what are your thoughts, does this seem more cost efficient/tacky/unoriginal?
