Centerpieces may not be high on your priority list, but may provide a good talking point for the Wedding Breakfast.
Personally I am lucky as at my venue I have some type of centerpiece included in my package. In many places you have to supply your own. Mine have been ever so slightly tweaked. How? Well that would be letting the secret out now wouldn't it.
Having been to many wedding shows, I come to the conclusion that there was far to many to choose from. As everything to do with a wedding is! From fish bowls with candles in, to giant martini glasses full of flowers I could only begin to dream of my ultimate centerpiece.
I would certainly research as much as possible. Each design has a varied price range. Going from company to company it was clear to see who was most expensive and who was budget friendly. On my most recent trip to the biggest wedding show in Kent -DETLING, I found it rather odd that many people was just 'enquiring' about their centerpieces at many of the stalls. This was until I came across 'Sashes and Centerpieces'. This family run business prides itself in perfect and affordable centerpieces and chair covers in many different designs and covers. Candelabras, fish bowls, and small vases are just some of the centerpieces offered. Why not have a look for yourselves http://www.sashesandcentrepieces.co.uk/
Another way of doing centerpieces on a budget would come from imagination and creativity from yourself. A good friend of mine has made her own ones, and they are beautiful. Many of the art and craft shops do such a variety of different decorations to put in vases, bowls and pots that you could actually get a little too carried away. I know I would. By having a design in mind and sticking to what you want you can create a beautiful design at a fraction of the price quoted from some companies. Again, be wise and do your research as to where you get the materials from and you will be sure to be a real budget Bride!
