Hi Ladies – We are having a destination wedding in Vegas and are getting married outside at a golf course. The aisle will be lined on each side somewhat heavily with hot pink/fuschia rose petals. There will be white wooden chairs and the florist will decorate them with bunches of magenta orchids tied with a ribbon like the below picture: This will cost about $20 per arrangement
Or I was thinking of doing shepherds hooks with a mason jar and a flower arrangement with some kind of fuschia/magenta flowers in it, like this:
First, do you think the shepherds hooks/mason jars/flowers will be any cheaper than the $20 orchid chair decor? Plus my other thought is I think I’d either have to ship the hooks to Vegas or go buy them when I’m there which would probably be a hassle.
Opinions? TIA!

Oh and the orchids would have a little less greenery…

Go with the orchids. It will be a hassle to get the supplies for the mason jars once you’re there and there are so many things that can go wrong. Give yourself a break and go with the otpion that’s easier and in my opinion prettier.

I agree with Pilotsgirl09! Easier is better in this case, especially since it is a destination wedding. The orchids will look beautiful 🙂

Orchids! That’s what I’m doing and then having rose petals stewn on the ground like the picture.

I dont personally think the orchids go with the rose petals. I like that they would be easy for you, but they just don’t seem to go together. Am I being too picky?
