I'm still struggling to find a nice centerpiece with my budget . But I saw this on Rachel Ray's website and thought it was so charming. Do you girls think it's wedding appropriate? Would it be too sparse looking?

I love the idea of using branches, but honestly, I'm not a fan of the birds.....

also not a fan of the birds... Since you have a winter wedding maybe still use the branch but hang crystal beads and/or snoflake shpes to give and icicle effect.

i know i was surprised, even my florist was saying how expensive it would be if i did all branches alot more than doing calla's well i ended up doing a mixture of both.
Even when i went to the wholesale flower district for e-party flowers the branches were the most expensive. You can get it there for less though. I did find one place that was selling 5 branches for $35 and that was the cheapest one, some places were about $65 for 5 branches and these were wholesale prices. If you go to the wholesale district theres a store that sells just all types of branches

check local craft stores (AC Moore, MIchaels) I'm sure you can find pretty beads for not too much $

You might be able to find branches too, in their Floral design sections. I don't know how much they go for but probably less than a florist would be charging.
