What was your original idea? I tried to do something to decorate my aisle with tall cherry blossom branches but we decided to go in a different direction. If you are into tall centerpieces you could steal my idea:
Buy cherry blossom branches from Joann’s, maybe cut them down just a little (unless you want 3-4′ tall centerpieces), and stand them up in vases, weighed down with glass stones. You could also add a mirror underneath to make it pop more, as well as some tea lights or votives.
I found this one that I like, but I don’t know if it’s anything like your original idea that you dislike now. Anyway, I thought it was nice and different. A low centerpiece with cherry blossoms and other pink flowers (peonies and ranunculus, I think)
I’m thinking about doing Cherry Blossom centerpieces too! Here are some pics I’ve been saving:
That first pic is beautiful! But I need to know what is in the middle? Those branches are perfect and curly! And are the flowers real or fake and where can I buy them! haha thanks for any help!
I was thinking about something like this in a med size vase with pebbles on the bottom
I found the pic online.. but I think it’s just a Cherry Blossom stem & it’s proabably wired, so if you just curl the wire to make it spiral like that? I’ve only been able to find Cherry Blossoms at Wal-Mart so far. Hobby lobby has some but they are tiny. JoAnne’s didn’t have any that I could find. & we don’t have a Michaels in my town.
Here is a website that I saved that sells them..I havent decided where I’m going to buy them if I do. http://www.save-on-crafts.com/peacblosspra.html?cmp=froogle&kw=peacblosspra

Those good work!
I was thinking handmade flowers and then maybe this as a “branch” it bends so I can get the shape I want in the glass vase?
Looking @ the cherry blossoms closer I really think that is whats in the vase!
My florist is submerging cherry blossom branches into long, cylindrical vases. Hope this helps?
curly willow is really easy to bend and easy to submerge – and it’s real – not synthetic made in china junk (sorry -mini vent at the faux flower girls – just my opinion).
cherry blossoms are beautiful when they are real. If you don’t like those, try forsythia or quince blossoms for dramatic effects – also pussy willow is fantastic but all of these can be a bit pricey. For a May wedding on the east coast – you could add white lilac if you are looking for a more flowy design vs architectural/stems.
