advice/opinions on centrepieces needed please...

Hey, I'm no flower expert, but these are my suggestions:

Sweet Peas - really easy to grow, and smell divine!!

Hydrangeas are gorgeous too, plonk the cut heads in clear vases!

How about lavender? You could give the plants in their pots to the guests to plant at home and remember your special day.

I'm crap with anything like this but Sherrie H will hopefully have some fab mood boards with ideas. I like the idea of being able to give the plants away as presents.

OOOH!!! Found these, but they're white...

.........Gives you an idea though.

Ooh la la, thank you sooo much, those pictures are fab!xxx

Anyone else?xxx

I love the idea of hand picked flowers, like sweat pea or bluebells - they would look lovely in a small thin vase (Ikea-esq!) with some purple ribbon tied round the vase.

Lavender would make the room smell gorgeous!

Glad this little old Newbie could be of help ?

Substitute the blue and green hydrangea heads for all purple?

I like the cheap and cheerful idea of wrapping threaded beads round jam jars, then putting cheaper flowers, like sweet peas or freesias in them.

Another orchid idea.

There's obviously more than one in here but it looks fab

Absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE that idea. I'd put a tall vase with a smaller vase beside it. Simple, elegant and just lovely.

I was just about to say the same. This one is gorgeous! So much so, that I'm now wracking my brain for an excuse to be able to use this!?

I had rose bushes as my table centres and gave them away after - people still tell me how theirs are doing, which is lovely!

My friend had potted orchids as table centres and they looked lovely (no pics I'm afraid!).

Potted Orchids would look lovely. You could also use artificial orchid heads scatterd around the base on the mirrors.

Maybe add a tag to the plants with your names & date of the wedding & a small thanks you for attending message.

Thanks so much hitchers, great help as usual. I will keep you updated on what i decide. xxx
