What is everyone doing for their centerpieces and what kind of flowers are you using?

Re: Flowers

I have tall pieces on a stand that has 3 spiraling tea lights on it. I have 2 dozen sahara colored roses ( like a champagne beige) with baby's breath and the green leaves will be lightly spray painted with a soft gold. Then I have matching petals on the bottom, on the table that is.

Re: Flowers

I am doing low centerpieces with white and cream roses, blue delphinium (to match the bridesmaids dresses) and some other kind of flower (forgot the name).

I wanted to simple.

Re: Flowers

V&S03 - I am also having white peonies (with hydrangeas, lilac, anna roses, etc..) and I love your idea of incorporating apples and the willow branches.

Do you happen to have a picture of your centerpieces??

Re: Flowers

Your centerpiece sounds beautiful, Jenn!

Do you happen to have any pictures of the high/low centerpieces. I seem to be having trouble finding one and just want to see how it looks set up in a room.
