I think you mentioned everything, but also alot of what you listed isn't necessary, it depends your personal preference...

O, well I think everything you listed is REALLY nice and will look pretty, but if you don't want to go over budget, maybe you don't need to do the cocktail hour centerpieces or the pieces at the food tables...

JMO

I didn't even think of doing those things, but maybe I am the one forgetting things haha...

Re: FLOWERS

It depends if you want to give flowers to the readers, etc.

FH and I handed out the programs in a wedding and we were given flowers and recognized in the program, but I am not sure yet if we are going to do this....

Re: FLOWERS

one thing you might want to get is an additional bout for the groom. After the ceremony everyone is going to be hugging him and the flowers might get ruined. He can put on the second one and then have a nice fresh one for the pictures!
