Is anyone doing all white centerpieces?

Have any pics?

My brother and FSIL are getting married at Fox Hollow and FSIL wants all white CPs.

Mom and bro looked at the sample yesterday and mom says it's TOO white! It's 24 white roses, white filler (what is that called - looks like mini daisies) and mini white orchids AND white candles.

TIA!

I am!
I am having 1/2 of my tables with white calla lillies and the other 1/2 will be a white pillar candle in a hurricane glass surrounded by votives.

Julz33, if you don't mind me asking, what is the price range for callalily centerpieces? i'd love to have full ones (with 24!) - i'll have 12 tables, but will settle for 8 or so as in your posted pic. still looks beautiful. i have no idea if i can afford this and i am getting my hopes up. any general prices? get any quotes yet?

If you do ALL white you need to make sure that the flowers you get will not brown at all for a long period of time. Many white roses will start to get small brown edges after a few hours!

This is NOT anyone else's wedding but theirs. If she wants an all white centerpiece than she should have it and Mom needs to just say it is beautiful.

Re: Is anyone doing all white centerpieces?

I am still debating.. I'm either alternating tables some with white tulips, others with gerbera daisies.. or the french tulips, or calla's NOT SURE YET.. I just think the white are SO elegant..

Thanks for the pics, ladies. I agree that all white cps can be very beautiful and elegant!

I agree, Michele! After all, they're paying for it.
