DIY Alternative Centerpiece
I kind of cringed as I typed DIY. The latest trend in the wedding industry is DIY which although is possible, can cause tremendous stress on a bride as well as those she has convinced to help her set up and do the dreaded “tear down” on her wedding day. The reason I am calling this post DIY is because I think DIY is possible for your reception if you stick with non floral centerpieces. I created this table on a whim today after surfing through Pinterest. Even though I put my own twist on what I saw, I do have to credit Centro Garden for the inspiration. With all credit given, I have to say this table was easy to set up and it took about 20 minutes to create. So, to my future brides and blog readers…. I WILL be supportive of your DIY reception ambitions as long as you leave floral “arranging” and ceremony florals (bouquets, bouts, etc) to me! :) Deal??

The main inspiration I took from Centro Garden were adding the little rock crystals. I love how raw it looks with the exposed wire. And of course I had to use burlap since its my favorite thing to decorate with.
