Centerpiece Ideas

Can anyone recommend a wedding florist in VA beach that is elegant and not too pricy?

We are getting married in VA beach and I need to find a florist that can help with centerpieces and bouquets that is classy and elegant yet one that can have a variety of modern looks.

What can I put around the reception tables instead of using centerpieces?

We can’t have centerpieces because it’ll be removed as soon as the food arrives. So, I’m thinking of putting little items around the table. I want it to be elegant, but I can’t think of anything else but candles. What do you think?

Any ideas would be great! Thanks!

pizza at a wedding?!?! ?

My fiancee and I are planning to be married in March. We are getting married beside a lake in a gazebo, then moving our reception about 100ft. away to a pavilion. (In Georgia, late March, you usually have decent weather that’s not too hot or cold to be outside) Neither of us are very (I’m not sure of the word) high maintenance. We both come from middle class families. We are both very laid back people, we like to spend time with our friends, and enjoy having people over quite a bit. We want our wedding reception to be more like a party-type function. No elegant sit-down dinners, and no speeches. Just good food, good people, and fun. So far I have planned for everyone to walk over, grab some pizza, and a beer, and sit down and listen to music. Then I have a party/prom-esque type play list for dancing. I think a wedding should be how the couple wants it to be. We want ours completely laid-back. We have Hawaiian/luau type decorations, and our centerpieces are goldfish in goldfish bowls with blue stones in the bottom. My bridesmaids dresses are short party dresses, all the same style, but each a different color. The wedding party will be wearing leis, and the guests will have them on their table to wear. On the invitations I will inform the guests to wear Hawaiian apparel, and/or casual dresses. Is this too laid-back?? Too laid-back that it may offend someone?? Opinions please.
**we are having a bartender, so there will definitely be other options for drinks, plus we’ll have the traditional soft drinks, tea, water, etc.
**we are planning on having other foods as well including wings, chicken tenders, some more finger foods. plus, pineapple pizza, to add to the Hawaiian theme

how am i suppose to tone down a place that is completely red?

my wedding reception will be held at a chinese restaurant and that place is completely red! The chairs, linen table cloths, and even the walls are red. I do not know what colors to use to tone down the place. I do not want it to look so asianize (if that is even a word). I like it to look more elegant. What can i use as my centerpiece for the tables? How can i decorate it? HELP

What are some good wedding-type centerpiece ideas?

I am looking for ideas for centerpieces or table dividers for a social function I am planning. I need roughly 50 of them and I need them to be inexpensive. They have to be tall/wide enough to provide the illusion of privacy. The color scheme for the event is open so far, but I would like to go with something classic – something elegant. I don’t want it to be too flashy or girly.

Fish for Thanksgiving?

I normally grill a large salmon fillet, because we don’t eat turkey, beef, etc. I am looking for suggestions for another type of fish that would be classy and elegant to serve for Thanksgiving and look great as our table centerpiece.

Has anyone used these linen like disposable chair covers?

I am getting married and am on a very tight budget. So far, it has been working okay. For one, we are getting married at our church so the site is free and special to us! However, the banquet hall is nice, but not exactly the elegant thing I was going for. So, I am planning on doing a “tent ceiling” with tulle and christmas lights, lowering the lighting for a romantic feel, (thank goodness the room has adjustable lighting!), and putting rose centerpieces on the tables. We did a test run and I was expecting the low lighting to take away from the fact that my chairs were brown metal folding chairs but it didn’t! I want my guests to be impressed when they first walk in, not see those chairs! SO, I found these really cheap: http://www.koyalwholesale.com/pages-productinfo-category-685_903-product-6633/chair-covers-sashes-and-table-linens-chair-covers-and-slips-disposable-chair-covers-w-bow-folding-chairs-96-pcs-bulk-2-colors.html

But I don’t know if they will work or not. Has anyone had experience with this?

I already checked into renting covers, and it was too expensive. This is a couple hundred dollars cheaper that I can maybe squeeze in.

Thank you!

Centerpiece Help? Thanks?

Option 1: Available from the venue directly at no cost : Mirrored circle with two tea lights, elegant and classy

Option 2: Diy to add a touch of whimsy, light up centerpieces, would be done in PURPLES NOT BLUE http://offbeatbride.com/2009/01/diy-ornament-bouquet#more-1529

Option 3: Potted Orchids, alternating white and purple at tables

Option 4: Your suggestions

I like alternative centerpieces, I am not a fan of flower boquet centerpieces, I think they are gorgeous but they don’t last and are over done. Simple floral arrangements are okay like 3 flowers max

Colors: Black, White and Silver with purple accents, decor already decided: favors on silver trays, white lanterns hanging from the ceiling, different sizes in groups of three, black and white photos of us in silver frames.

Thanks for your imput
hydrangeas are going to be my boquet flowers for sure, but our reception is in another province a couple days later
