Fall Brides, anyone for that matter....I need your help! WITH PIC!

Fall Brides, anyone for that matter....I need your help! WITH PIC!

So, this is my snag 2 weeks before the wedding:

The centerpiece bases I wanted are not available, so now my mom has gone and turned everything upside down and suggested pumpkin centerpieces again, after she convinced me not to do them.

The room is soft pastel colors, and we thought nice ivory roses and hydrangea with some green berries would look nice, and the sample was beautiful.

So here's my problem, do I scrap the centerpiece I saw and liked, or see a pumpkin with bold colors and become even more confused?

Do you think an orange pumpkin with ivory flowers would look strange?

Or should I just try to find another base?

Please help, for my mother's sake!!!!!!

In my honest opinion...just find diff. bases. If you start rearranging the entire thing now you will want to jump off a bridge.

Being that the room is soft pastels...the original flowers you picked sound perfect. Just pick a different but neutral base...it won't matter that much, trust me!! the focal point is the flowers. If you can get a nice clear hurricane vase or something pewter or silver that should work.

Don't stress!!! It'll work out.

This is the centerpiece....sorry the pic isn't so good...resizing

I would like the base to be like the one in the pic, or something along that color line.....

What kind of base did you want? Can you describe it? I know a great site for glass centerpiece bases:

why can't I resize? can someone help me?



where are you getting the picture from? If it is from a website, right click the pic and click on properties and where it says ADDRESS (URL), copy that address. Then go to your post and click on Insert Web Image, and paste the address into the box. Voila, that sould work.

What if you try Michael's or ACMoore for the baskets and then give them to your florist? And, maybe they can take off some of the price that they gave you since they will not be supplying the vase.
