Lake County Weddings: Centerpiece Edition

There are few things that make a bigger statement on your wedding day than the centerpieces on each table at the reception. It will be one of the first pieces of wedding decor that guests notice when they enter the reception venue, so it needs to be a wow. Whether you choose to use many wedding flowers to make a statement or just a few flowers for a simple look, there are a few tips to keep in mind.

Using your local florist for your wedding flowers is always a great idea. Not only will you be helping out a local business, you can save some money along the way. There will be no paying for shipping and no paying extra for ruined flowers. A good local florist will know their craft and be passionate about it, which will come out in their work. You can ask around and do your research to find the one that fits your bill.

Just because you need a wow factor for a centerpiece does not mean you have to spend a lot of money. You can make a few large flowers go a long way and add in greenery and other wedding decor to pull it all together. This is great for a beautiful yet simple look. Sometimes more is definitely less.

Did you know that there are rentals available to add a little pizzazz to your centerpieces? You can rent different shapes of vases, pedestals, and cylinder sets among other things. Check with your local florist to see if they have rentals available. You may be surprised at what you can borrow! They may even come set up and take down for a price.

You want your centerpieces to truly reflect you as a couple, just as everything else on your wedding day. Don’t choose bright and gaudy wedding flowers if you are a simple couple. On the other hand, don’t keep it simple if you really love to be loud and proud! Talk to your florist and make sure they know who you are and what you expect of them.

Whether you choose a big and dramatic centerpiece with many wedding flowers as the focal point or a few big blooms with other decor, Lake County has plenty of great options. Whether you are seeking advice, rentals, or an all-inclusive service, you can find what you need.
