I have a confession to make: I have never loved flowers. I like getting them on celebratory occasions, of course. But, I have to admit, I’m loving the growing trend of botanical favors and decor.
Whether you want to send a ‘green’ message to your guests or you don’t want to pay big bucks for a florist, there are many unique ways to showcase plants within your wedding style.
Add Water Decor
Succulents in simple, DIY planters would make a beautiful statement in a loft or gallery wedding. You can personalize the base planters to fit within your color scheme or go neutral (as shown) to keep it simple.
These bubble vases would definitely make a statement at a museum or gallery wedding. I love how they show off simple buds! Keep it elegant and modern with a simple style or go quirky with the leg variations pictured below.
Using a small tree as a table number would be an excellent idea for an eclectic or natural indoor wedding or a fun and laid-back outdoor wedding. I love the idea of clothes-pinning a table number to the top and you can easily tie-in this idea elsewhere by using the trees as decor for the dessert and gift tables.
Sweet minis would make a cute addition to a long, rectangular-style table reception…I feel if I was sitting in front of these beauties, I’d be enthralled by their simplicity. Who says you need a giant or loud centerpiece anyway?
Give’Em Something to Grow Favors
I love the idea of dried flowers and a small candy in a tiny metal pot. You can personalize this idea with moss and a flower pick label, potpourri instead of flowers or a small plant in soil.
It seems that I fall a bit more in love with terrariums each time I see them. These terrarium light bulbs with a simple tag are fresh and inspiring. You can take the idea in an ornament direction or double the favors as place cards.
