Branch Centerpieces

Ok another question girls......FH and I really want tall centerpieces. either long stem flowers (like cherry blossoms...but i think they are not in season in June) or those branch centerpieces (does anyone know what i am talking about???) I think calla lilies are nice too. SOOOO undecided....does anyone have any pics of the branches or long flowers?????

Re: Branch Centerpieces

Also, don't know how much you are looking to spend on flowers but just so you know calla lilies are one of the more expensive flowers...I LOOOVE them and the CP's look great...When i went to a bridal show pedestals had a callalily cp and it was $175 for each one. Flowers by brian had the EXACT same one for $300 lol...but yeah the lady at pedestals said that they were more expensive. But some people don't mind spending it, but just giving you a heads up

I did see pedestals had something like that and i am more than sure they can definitely duplicate it...Or what florist were you considering? they would probably be able to also do it

Re: Branch Centerpieces

the one they had as a sample (Flowers by Brian) were huge with candles hanging

they didnt give me a total on the whole piece, the guy just said that they cost $15 - $20 per branch

there were at least 10 branches in the vase

Oh flowers by brian is ridiculous though...I mentioned before how pedestals had the EXACT same cp and theres was $175 and flowers by brian was $300, not even like $200 to say ok $25 dollar different but a $125 difference is INSANE!!!!!!
