Windows on the Bay Wedding Show Booth Flowers

Last weekend at the Bridal Inspirations Bridal Show, we had the opportunity to provide flowers for our friends at Windows on the Bay Events. Their booth colors were navy and bright green. We chose to highlight those colors with hot pink flowers and bright green foliage.

They have a fabulous iron arch that we decorated with three floral clusters, connected with trailing ivy. Navy fabric was drapped trough the arch. A glass and iron vase was filled with flowers and curly willow branches, to adorn the catering table. Flowers included in these designs were roses, freesia, anemone, lisianthus and hypericum berries.

If you are still looking for a venue for your wedding or for a great caterer, please consider Windows on the Bay Events. Their venue is in the Bellingham marina, in the Yatch Club building. The view is absolutely stunning, especially at sunset. And their food is so very tasty!

Unique Vases for Centerpieces

I was on one of my favorite sites today, www.zgallerie.com, looking for inspiration. Do reception centerpieces always need to be in clear glass vases? Certainly not! Look at a few of these ideas... So these are really candle holders/pillars, but a flower arrangement could easily be attached where the candle sits. I love Baroque style, maybe because it mimics flowers. These would really make an event feel opulent but current at the same time.

Mercury vases are so beautiful. With silver being a popular accent, why not bring the color and shine to the table with these beauties?
This vase is just architectually cool. I love how the light reflects off the various surfaces. Imagine candles surrounding the vase, creating that effect. Not a large opening at top for flowers, but this vase really only needs a few stunning stems to compliment it. Try orchids or flowering branches.


Purple is such a popular accent color for weddings, why not have the vase be the choosen shade instead of the flowers? Would be stunning with white or green flowers, all of the same variety, like ranunculus.
Hope these few examples have given you inspiration as well. Off to look for more ideas...
