Re: SAMPLE CENTERPIECE ( PLS GIVE ME YOUR OPINION
ok if I may- JMHO...its a little too busy...there's too many conflicting things going on....I think it would be beautiful if you just did the callas and white dendrobian orchids simplify it because the flowers are competing a little....

Re: SAMPLE CENTERPIECE ( PLS GIVE ME YOUR OPINION
Or you could do something like this if you wanted to bring color into it....obviously with colored orchids
i dont like the flowers that have a blue tint to them at the bottom - i dont know anything about flowers so i dont know what they are called i like them as flowers but i think they are too much in this particular CP - i think without them it would be really nice....
i like the picture posted above with the flowers in the vase.....very nice.....

I think it is beautiful.
The only thing I would do differently is find a wy to cover the stem of the calla lilies inside or outside, but its quite lovely

I agree that it looks too busy. The flowers don't blend very well, and the hydrangeas seem like an afterthought just stuck at the bottom.
What about curly willow mixed in with the callas and white dendrobium orchids ? The willow would give added height and some body to the top of the arrangement.
Aren't cherry blossoms going to be out of season at the time of your wedding ? They naturally bloom about the end of March to the middle of April.

I'm not crazy about the way the Hydrangeas look in it. Maybe without thouse, it would be better? Or with just the Orchids- those look really nice.

I AGREE, the hydrangeas dont go that well...Without that though i think it will look great

ACCORDING TO FLORIST THEY WILL BE GOOD FOR MAY.

Theyre hydrangea...they're also very expensive and small for how expensive they are (about $15/stem), having said that I don't want you to get less than what you're paying for!!! Cherry blossom branches are cheap....you could always try white hydrangea circling the base and white callas coming out, but if you wont want to do all white then maybe add another flower....when r u getting married again???

Re: SAMPLE CENTERPIECE ( PLS GIVE ME YOUR OPINION
Think Less is more! there a a bunch of beautiful conncepts here but they aren't quite meshing well. I would take out the hydrangeas, they look like an after thought. HOw about the calla lillys and some curly willow and if they tied a few crystals coming down from the cury willows??

I think this idea is very pretty, especially because you're getting married at Crest Hollow..it will go with the look of the reception halls. Not too sure about the blue color..CHCC's RH colors are deep red, and gold..so I think the above will look beautiful.

Re: SAMPLE CENTERPIECE ( PLS GIVE ME YOUR OPINION
If it were me and I wanted to use those 3 flowers, I would put the orchids in the vase nd put the hydrangea in a ring around the bottom.
The way it is, it looks a bit busy. JMHO

They're NOT!!! but you asked so we're going to try and pick em apart....I was going to try and link you to Tiki's albums because she has such pretty CPs. I would stick with the Callas and do white dendros...that would look gorgeous...
I do think though that your reaching for the cherry blossoms...they're going to be harder to get in may
