Centerpieces and more ...

I bought some "earthy" flower pots (see picture) last week on sale at Michael's. Our plan is to use them as centerpieces. I would like to fill them with satin flowers and tie a ribbon around the middle of the pots.

Here's some flower arrangements that I like. I'm slowly starting to buy satin flowers. My favorites (and must) are pink lilies and chrysanthemums and green hydrogen’s. I think I would also like to add one or two roses per pot.



Decorations :
I like how a vine of leafs outlines the table of honnour on this pictures Maybe I could do something similar ... but add some pink flowers.



Also, a friend landed me some decorations from her wedding. It includes columns stands and columns, an arch and "lighting branch balls" (hard to described in words). I'm so thankful for these. It's going to save me so much. Here's an idea of what the columns look like.


I'm also starting to think of ideas on how to tell people at which table their are seated for the meal.

- hang little cards with name of guest and table number on branch of a tree;
- have little cards pin to a rope by clothes-pins. I found a picture of this in a magazine and it was really cute. It might be easier for the guest for find their name than on branches.
