Cheap Centerpieces
Fresh Flowers Take a trip to a dollar or other discount store and purchase a clear vase. Place some marbles or cut crystals (also purchased at a discount store) in the bottom of the vase and then fill the vase with fresh flowers from your garden or supermarket. You can add baby’s breath, ferns or any other filler that you like to make the arrangement appear more lavish. Plants Depending upon the season of your wedding, you can purchase potted plants at a supermarket, farm or wholesale florist. Purchase foiled paper (that coordinates with your color scheme) and wrap the paper around the pot, then place the potted plant in a decorated wreath. If you don’t want the added cost of a wreath, make a bow and place the bow in the pot. Candles The soft flickering light created by candles creates a sense of intimacy and romance. After season sales are the perfect time to purchase candles for your table arrangements. Buy candles in varying heights and place three on a tray and scatter small stones, seashells, or colored glass around the candles.
Edible Centerpieces Since you don’t want to blow your wedding budget on your centerpieces, how about having your beautiful centerpieces be edible too!
One wedding, where the bride was particularly strapped for cash, purchased clear, cylinders of varying heights and added candy that coordinated with her wedding color scheme. She placed three cylinders on each table; not only did they look great, but were functional too. Wine Centerpieces
