Wedding Blog

Back when we visited the wholesale warehouse for our decor elements, I never thought we would wind up with this…

Supplies

2. Sticks and Crystals

The crystals are threaded through thin wire, and were purchased in a huge roll at the wholesale warehouse. We toyed with the idea of purchasing sticks at the warehouse, but the prices were insane! Instead, Mamacado and Friend Patti headed out to a nearby abandoned orchard with some wood cutters and snipped away. They then cut lengths of crystal and wrapped them around the sticks.

3. Feathers and Mossy Sticks

The feathers and moss were both found at the wholesale warehouse. The feathers were stripped from their sets to make them go a little bit further.

4. Sparkly Doodads

I wasn’t a huge fan of these when we purchased them, but Mamacado insisted we needed some color and sparkle (she was right, as usual). They were also stripped down to smaller sections to be spread throughout the 12 centerpieces.

5. Moss

Several different kinds of moss were used. This earthy, natural stuff was my favorite.

The vases came pre-assembled, but there were still more centerpiece elements to be put together at the wedding so I created this little picture guide for my DOC to use.

My only advice in choosing centerpieces like this would be to make sure you have a way to transport them to the wedding! Mamacado and I are definitely glad that that stressful experience is over.
