    So these are a few pictures of our venue and what we are planning on doing with it! I'll explain as I go!

    We are having an evening reception indoors.  We are having simple floor length ivory linens with floral centerpieces in mason jars with the following flowers, with other fillers and flowers not pictured, but of the same color palette. In little jars around them we are having votives and any stray flowers that we have left over:

    We are going to hang paper flowers like the following from the ceiling:

    What do you think?! Do you think that will be enough, too much, too little? I don't want to overpower the simple charm of the place! Do you have any other suggestions that we could use for our decorations that are easy and simple??

    Wow it so beautiful from the outside. If you have ceremony or reception outside you wouldn't even need to decorate.

    @USAandKSA: Unfortunately we are having them inside because it will be in November in the evening, so quite chilly. But I am thinking less is more for this venue. Instead of doing flower centerpieces I want to do something like this the following to save money on flowers.

    Thanks for looking and for the advice!

    @fvsoccer:

    That is a gorgeous venue-lucky you!  I think you could do either option, however I love the flowers you chose.  Other flowers that appear to be in season for November include Alstromeria, Mini CallaLilies, (freesia-that you chose), pincushion protea-which is really unique-but similar to the first flower you posted, and of course crysanthemums.

    I really love the tree/branches centerpiece idea.  It looks beautiful and I think it will represent the season really well.

    I love both ideas but i especially love the flowers but I know what you mean about the price. Im facing the same budget issue so Im making all my own. The only thing I can suggest for your venue is to hang twinkle lights on the ceiling with you paper poms. And if you do go ith the trees and inexpensive way to include flowers is to go with freeze dried petals. I found a few websites for them just google it but www.flyboynaturals.com has the best selection.
