Hi everyone! I'm getting married in Orleans in 6 months (time is flying!) and am struggling to find the centerpieces/favors I need. We're naming our tables after Cape locations and trying to find items that represent those locations. I don't need mass quantities of centerpiece items, just one or two, so I'm looking for these beach theme items to be fairly large if possible. I'm not originally from this part of the country (I'm a country girl from the Midwest, new to New England), so if you have ideas of where I can find these items, I would SO appreciate it!
Here's what my fiance and I are looking for: a lifeguard stand, adirondack chair (2), kayak (2), lighthouse, fishing boats, and plastic (?) lobster & crab.
I'm also looking for lots of starfish and sand dollars. I've seen people post about getting them from Oriental Trader but I'm concerned because the reviews on the OT website are so variable.
Lastly, has anyone ever seen a starfish, sand dollar (or even sea urchin!) in colors other than white? Our wedding colors are wisteria and citron green. All the men are wearing white shirts, so if I tried to use a white shell it'd get lost in the photos. (We're doing DIY everything!)
Can't wait to hear from you guys. Thank you SO much!!!!!!!!
