Remember when my FMIL was dripping in pearls? Let’s call this Part Two.

After deciding to use Banquet In The Woods as our invitation inspirational piece, Mama Seashell and my Aunt came across chandelier decorations and promptly texted me the following photo:

Mama Seashell then called me and asked what I thought about purchasing 21 (one for each table at the reception plus our sweetheart table). At that point I was thinking, ‘I have NO CLUE how we’ll incorporate these exactly, but I’m all for creativity.’ So, I told her to go for it.

Fast forward a few weeks to our first meeting with a potential florist, Sayles Livingston.

Before meeting with Sayles I’d had visions of floral arrangements with these chandeliers somehow attached to a wire type thing popping out of the middle.

(I hope my art provides comic relief)

After introductions, and describing the overall aesthetic of the wedding, we showed Sayles the chandelier decorations. She promptly placed one in a vase and suggested we decorate it with flowers placed above and candles on the table below.

Duh - how perfect! (This is why I’m not a florist or in a creative field.) We hired her on the spot.

Did you have any wedding accessories that required a little creativity to utilize?
