CONFUSED ABOUT WEDDING CENTREPIECES ???

The world of wedding flowers can be confusing. There are bloom names to learn, there's seasonality to consider, and there are coloUr palettes to decide on, among other things. Trust us, we know it's a lot to tackle! If you're feeling overwhelmed, we recommend starting with the basics, like what style of arrangements you're looking for. Not sure what your options are? Not a problem. We're here to provide a simple guide that outlines some of our most requested wedding centrepieces. 

First things first: Let’s break it down by common heights, sizes, and shapes, rather than themes or aesthetics. That being said, every style listed aligns with a certain vibe. We’ll paint a picture of who might like each type, plus what kind of wedding each could work for.

Maybe you're a glamorous couple—in that case, consider tall wedding centerpieces. Maybe, you're a modern couple—if that sounds like you, try hanging wedding centerpieces. Or maybe, you can't decide between two looks—if so, combine them. Here, we provide brief explanations of all those centerpiece types. Let’s compare the possibilities to help you bring your vision to life.

LOW CENTREPIECES

Low centerpieces sit close to the table—often in bowls or similar vessels. We find our traditional couples are drawn to this classic style, and they prove time and time again to be very versatile.

TALL CENTREPIECES

Elevated arrangements are typically placed in tall vessels, like flare vases. They're great for glamorous weddings and for those couples wanting a luxe feel to their wedding day.

SMALL WEDDING CENTREPIECES

Bud vases are a common choice for small centerpieces, which can be anything from timelessly refined to modernly minimalist. Choose them for understated table décor.

LARGE WEDDING CENTREPIECES

These lush arrangements are characterized by their overgrown garden look. They like to live in compotes, and they're especially popular at romantic events. These are best suited to round guest tables.

GARLANDS

Garland-style centerpieces are placed down reception tables like runners. This is a more natural, effortless, and intimate approach. One important tip is to consider your meal service. Those much loved garlands just don’t work with shared plates unless they are placed on elevated serving boards.

ASSORTED WEDDING CENTREPIECES

Mismatched arrangements. We like to include these in your space to add lots of depth and layers to your reception tables.
