My fiance are getting married in the natural arch of a building but I'd love to have something framing us like manzanita tree display. I've attached a link of wedding Those displays can be really expensive though. Any thoughts?

Check out hobby lobby! They have branches on sale all the time, and they also have 40% off coupons you can download online! You might also look at curly willow.

Bust out that glue gun and put some fake flowers on there. Drip a few faux crystals around it.

I bet you could do both for under $20 combined!

You can find great ideas on the Nettleton Hollow blog and supplies from their shop. Manzanita is one option, but larger pieces will cost you and arm and a leg to ship. I know Michaels was selling small- to medum-sized branches for $9.99. You should also check out Mitsumata branches and Curly Willow, too.

(I've done A LOT of research on this kind of stuff! LOL)

Yorkie-you may have just saved me, I was looking for branches to fill our urns which will flank our "Altar" and Nettleton Hollow is perfect! Thank you!

bellebell-thanks for posting this, I was thinking the same thing!
