bouquet during reception...

What did you do with your bouquet during the reception?
Was it used at all as decor or even a centerpiece for your table?

Also, what about the BM bouquets?
I'm thinking about using these on the cake table...

Can I tell you how sick I am of the little details at this point...I'm close to breaking....

    I wanted to use all the bouquets as decor so I bought 5 vases at Michael's that I knew would fit the BM flowers and lined them up on a mantle at our venue (the girl's took them home afterwords). We did the same thing with my bouquet (in a vase) but it was on the cake table (I wish I had a picture of it!).

    We had a long head table (banquet style, WP, B&G, and dates on both sides).  We used our bouquets between two low centerpieces.  Mine was in the center of the table, then the two centerpieces, then two bouquets, then two more.  The line down the center of the table was -Maid's Bouq, Maid's Bouq, Centerpiece, Bride's Bouq, Centerpiece, Maid's Bouq, Maid's Bouq.  Like PP, they were in clear, cylinder vases-- mine from SaveOn Crafts.

    Man, I wish I had thought of this...

    I just whored mine around around the tent during the reception.  A few folks were using it as a photo opp (them holding the bouquet, I mean).

    love the idea of making it a peice of the decor!!!

    Mine sat on our sweetheart table and the girls bouquets sat on theirs (they were at round table on ither side of us. We had enough other accents on each table that we didn't really need them.

    Mine went MIA after our cocktail hour photo shoot outside. It was SOO heavy and I just didn't want to carry it any more!! :)

    The BM's just put their down at their tables I think...

    Mine was just placed at the front of our table (we had a sweetheart table) and so were the BM's.  Our cake table had flowers on it... I am not sure where they came from.

    I literally have no idea what I did with it for most of the night. I guess I should be glad my mom found it and saved it :)

    Mine ended up in a vase on the head table (which was a regular table with DH, me and the WP).  My MOH's bouquet was put in a vase on the cupcake table.
