Florist Winter Wonderland

I want to do a winter wonderland theme with big branches. Any florist you know who is affordable and is experienced with creating this kind of sphere.

I have some pictures of the sphere I am thinking about.

Re: Florist Winter Wonderland

Can I make a suggestion???

If you have the time, I would STRONGLY suggest DIYing this! Seriously, when you think about it, its just tall glass vases and curly willow spray pained white (I've also seen it with silver sparkles)... there are also SO MANY ways to be creative and add your own idea to it.

FH and I are doing this but keeping the branches natural looking and hanging tealights from the branches so that it looks like twinkling stars when you walk into RH. Burtons (who I think has really great prices and we are using for bok's) quoted us @ $125 per table! FOR GLASS AND STICKS?!?!?! No thanks I said - I'm getting EVERYTHING on eBay or from on-line wholesale (might even utalize AC Moore or MIcheals) and making this my summer DIY project... then, all the items that I used are going back up on eBAY!

Good Luck!

Re: Florist Winter Wonderland

I have been thinking about doing myself. My concern is who can I ask to put the centerpieces on the tables? Do the RH do it for you? I don't want to be stressed out on the day of my wedding.

How are you going to resolve it?

This would be theonly issue with DIYing it but you could ask a friend to help you set them up if you know there is someone you can trust to do this. Good luck with your search

Re: Florist Winter Wonderland

I think my RH said they could have it set up if I get all the pieces out there before hand. We are also getting married at RH so if worse comes to worse, ... I have a couple of friends who said they would do it for me. It will just be a matter of putting it on the table- I'm putting it all together ahead of time... bringing it over in two pick up trucks!

I'm DIY my branch centerpeices too. I like the look and I don't want to spend thousands for it
