MEGA Flash... Bored in work - thoughts needed!!

lady_lyla, 28 February, 2012 at 11:24 Posted on Planning 0 19

Sorry if the pics are huge, never done this before!

Below are flashes of our plans so far - what can we do for centrepeices and decorations?!

Venue - Midland Art Deco Hotel
I loved this venue when I was at uni in Lancaster as so when we started looking I couldn't get it out of my head... we went on a Sunday drive there one weekend and thankfully my H2B loved it too! It's over looking the sea and the rooms we'll be using have floor to ceiling windows over the sea front!

The bridal suite

The rooms (which we will be decorating with cath kidston style bunting and table runners and chair covers and stuff!)

My Dress and how i'd like my hair (but with a birdcage viel)

Hopefully what our sweet table will be like (we're making a big board for the back and collecting vintage glass bowls for the sweets)

    Really fab and stylish! For centrepieces, what about using funky vases? Maybe something like this? I think a white and blue colour theme would work really well in that space and with the bunting and sweets table.

    Or maybe something like this

    Oooh... what about an Art Deco inspired cake?

    LOVE that cake! We're looking at a cupcake tower as I'm obsessed with cupcakes (more so even than most girls!)... there's a place in Lancaster that I used to always visit when I lived there and theres are lovely and really good value so think we're going with them, but I love cake so definitely will look into the art deco one too haha

    Thanks guys... I did think about shorter dresses but my Mum said she'd always dreamt of me wearing a long one (plus then I can wear flats!)

    Totally gorgeous! We're having a bunting type wedding and for our table centres I'm putting a square of floral fabric with a jar filled with wild looking flowers. I'll probably tie some lace round the jars. I might also stack some old looking books on some table centres and put the jar or a flower filled teacup on top of that. I've also ordered these wee heart shaped confetti pieces that are cut from old love stories.

    that hair piece is AMAZING! Do you know where it's from or was it just an inspiration photo?

    I'm not sure, it's just an inspiration peice for the hair style - I've seen a couple of similar hair slides at vintage fairs and things though!

    I've got lots of photos of stuff on my pinterest if anyone needs inspiration!

    Hi there,

    You could take some terracotta pots(from garden centres) and paint them in CKidson blue colour(just use emulsion) Then fill with flowers in CK colours eg- pinks,greens, red and maybe even tie some CK ribbon around the pots

    I know the pic below is a bit different but you'll have to imagine lol
