Suggestions for Centerpieces

Macee, on June 24, 2019 at 12:19 PM Posted in Do It Yourself 0 9

Okay, since you all have been such a great help with wedding invites...looking for suggestions on my wedding centerpieces. I'm doing KY theme, so the main centerpiece bottoms is a bourbon barrel head. I'm leaving it with the stamp, as I want things rustic. I'm adding a galvanized pitcher or milk jug to the center. I'm doing dried black beard wheat with possibly pheasant feathers in the pitcher/jug. and still thinking of something dried to add burgundy to it. The table numbers will be small horse shoes (KY still going), but it still needs something else on the barrel head, should I do greenery or something else? No open flame and I'm not a big fan of the flame less candles I've seen. Fall wedding and the round table will have a black table cloth with burlap runner with burgundy lace.

    What about dark mums? Mums are a great seasonal flower and very affordable.

    We're getting married in a distillery, so part of our centerpieces include empty bottles with fairy lights in them, and we're also using a barrel head as a guest book. I love the idea of a barrel head as part of a centerpiece - I think adding a small grouping of flowers/greenery to what you're already considering would look really nice.

    What about some greenery around the pitchers?

    I had thought about this idea, but I didn't want it to be too busy. I'll check for some greenery and see what I can do with it so it doesn't look cluttered. I have a barrel head guestbook ordered, I loved the idea of being able to display the guestbook versus put it away!

    I think greenery would go really well with what you've mentioned so far!

    I did a test run putting some dried flowers in pitcher and milk can, I like it! Can't wait to see if with blackbeard wheat! I tried some greenery on it, but didn't care for it at all. So, still looking for suggestions.

    I live in Kentucky and they are plentiful with all the bourbon being made.
