Flowers can be one of the largest expenses in a wedding budget. If you are looking to save money on wedding costs, a simple solution is to reduce the amount of flowers used as wedding decorations. Unfortunately, this is a little bit easier said than done. Flowers make an event elegant, and easily fill up space in an otherwise empty reception hall. Luckily, there are a variety of other centerpieces available that do not rely on large floral displays. These include, but are not limited to candles, statues, frames, and small bud vases.
Wedding Staples offers a wide variety of centerpieces, with the option of personalization! Think of what a nice touch it would be to be able to decorate your wedding reception using your monogram and wedding colors.
Also be sure to consider the time of year and theme of your wedding. Wedding Staples has a centerpiece for a fall or winter ceremony.
Keep in mind that there are multiple uses for any centerpiece other than flowers after your wedding day! Your wedding centerpiece can be a cherished keepsake for years to come. Think of how lovely it will be to use it to decorate your new home with the same centerpiece use at your wedding. Of course, there is also the option of reusing the same centerpiece from your wedding as a centerpiece for the next party you host. Remember, there is always the option to resell your recycled centerpieces on sites such as eBay.
