Day to Night Centerpieces
Use dark colored vases at a night reception to make the flowers, willows, or even crystals pop against the lighting. It will also make the vase look like a part of the table. This will also save on river rocks, colored stones/water, fish, sunken flowers, floating candles, etc.. So you can focus on the arrangement. Use lights on the arrangement can use battery operated lights (which you can find HERE!) to sink into the flowers to make it shine or battery operated twinkle lights (which you can get HERE!) that you can place the battery pack in the vase to hide it. Here is a good vase for that (can get from the shops site);
On a day wedding or if your not keen on flowers or giant arrangements take that idea the other way. Find an ornate vase and use it as the focal point of the table. Use subtle tea lights to project its light onto the vase if at night, during the day it will speak for itself. Use sublet colors such as green, brown, yellow, white, pink, or peach in the form of flowers, feathers, or willows to flow from the top of the vase. Carnations, Daisy's, roses, and hydrangea are some great flowers to use with it. Some good vases for that are (can be found at the shops site);
Take a look at the canvas that we made below at Bridal Canvas to show off todays ideas!
