Fave Centerpieces - 2011 Weddings

Fave Centerpieces - 2011 Weddings
Attention brides, mothers of the bride, fathers, or anyone else footing the bill for a large wedding. What to do when you have a large reception venue and a limited budget? Larger halls can fit many tables to accommodate guests; to keep things festive, one trick of the trade is to alternate height of centerpieces. High pieces can fill all that empty space between table and the average adult's eye level, creating a fuller and more finished look to the party. Our brides did a wonderful job this year using unique objects including branches from trees on their own property for a rustic feel (and FREE), but our favorite centerpieces with the most "bang for your buck" were from the ........

Stubblefield wedding!

When I sat down with Kate Neidhardt and Jeremy Stubblefield at their consultation, she told me I was going to LOVE the centerpieces and mentioned they were "feathers". I thought they were incorporating feathers, but take a look at these gorgeous PLUMES!!!! :D What a great way to fill the empty space in their venue! And with the feathers all being white, any lighting was reflected back to the eye and just looked SHARP!!! Table numbers for guest seating (seating place cards on a front table in the foyer between the actual hall and the classic car museum [ACD museum, Auburn, IN] ) also acted as a low centerpiece. Clear glass vases held all those fabulous feathers while still allowing guests to see and interact with those seated across the table.

Great idea Kate and Jeremy!
