To add or not to add baby's breath to centerpieces?
Just in general I'm on the fence whether or not I like baby'e breath in centerpiece's or not. I've seen some that look unbelieveable with it and some that I don't like so much that has it and also vice vers. Please take my poll, I'd like to see some opinions.

That is VERY old school and bring down the look of your centerpiece... the same goes for Ferns as well!!
IMO
What is a fern? I've heard of that but what does that look like?

I chose 'other' it just took me a few min to find pics of the 'other'... I am VERY anti-baby's breath. I like seeded eucalyptus (first 2 pics) or 'Millionstar' gypsophila or white wax flower (3rd pic)

there are so many pretty fillers out there.... just look at bouquets on knot.com, and see which ones you like. For my personal taste, I'm not that excited by baby's breath or stephanotis... but I know my tastes are rather unconventional....

I am lost when it comes to flowers if it's not a rose I have no idea what it is I'm going to need a lot of help with flowers.

I voted no. I'm not a big fan of BB and often I find it 'cheapens' the look of the CP. JMO.

Not my taste personally, but it really depends on what type of flowers you are using.

I don't like babies breath. I'm doing only roses in my CPs and I'm not adding any filler or greens. Partially it's because I'm doing my own flowers, but mostly it's because I think it looks more modern and sophisticated that way.
but if you do like filler, try a different one like lamb's ear or dusty miller. I have no idea how expensive those are, I've seen them in Martha Stewart Weddings!

I really like the look of roses mixed with hypericum berries--they come in all sorts of colors, so they can go with any sorts of roses. Usually you see them in red or pink but i know they come in yellow, too. I've also seen blue-toned berries, but I think that's another type. You can even add fruit to your centerpieces! I think it looks great. Check out the current Martha Stewart Weddings, she has an article about fruit in centerpieces, and also one about rose bouquets.
