Sample centerpiece ideas that look great and save you money
For the past few weeks I've been tweeting some "Recessonista Wedding Tips", ways to save money in today's economy. They've been so popular I wanted to share a post with my non-twitter followers, and expand on the list! These ideas are fun, romantic, and so simple. Some of these ideas work great with event other than weddings, so hold on to the list for birthdays, anniversaries, showers, anything you want to celebrate. So here we go!
1. Have your bridesmaids carry a single flower instead of a whole bouquet. Simple, romantic, costs lots less
2. Send an e-card instead of a big save the date card. There's lots of free options, and some great cheap ones
3. Skip the inner envelope with your invites, or better yet, make them yourself with a small square of paper or doily.
4. Have your florist use more filler in your arrangements, centerpieces, and attendant bouquets.
5. Cut back your guest list. Your dad's college roomie he hasn't seen in 25 years doesn't need to come.
The pictures on the right are some examples of great centerpiece ideas that cost very little and yet are stunning and fun. There's 10 more great tips to come, so check back for more!
