Today I was bored and decided to put together a small scale preview. I almost have eveything done. I need to finish my low centerpieces which won’t take long. So you want pictures? Well, of course!
This first one is my tall centerpieces and bouquet:
This is the ceremony decor, The silver dollar branches will be up front and the hurricanes and tapers lining the aisle:
Closeup on my almost finished bouquet:
Everything with the lights on:
Candle setting on my camera:
And dark:
So what do you think? Any ideas or suggestions?

I love the last 2 photos. It’s going to be great.
Are they real candles or LED ones (I’m nervous about fire risk for the ones in the branches).
I love it.

Ooo I love it!!
I think tho you should keep everything white, so take away the green ribbon around the vase, it seems a little odd to have it around.
But seriously, GREAT job!!

Oh that looks so pretty with everything all lit up! And I actually like the green ribbons around, it adds a pop!

I LOVE the low centerpieces. Agree with the suggestion to remove the green ribbon. I think they look too cutesy, like a birthday party or baby shower, vs. the elegance of the rest of the decor.

Thanks! About the ribbon: I was trying to bring some color in because the reception hall is all white and the tableclothes and napkins are white (or ivory). However, I can easily take them off if you think it’s blah. And the candles are LED because there will be lots of kids and FSIL’s kids are pyros.

Oo — they’re totally pretty with the lights on, but in the dark — just lovely! I really like those. I’m kind of sorry I won’t get to have candlelight as part of my reception decor, but it’s Alaska in the summer, so… it doesn’t get dark.
