15 Gorgeous Centrepieces You Can Do Yourself

If you've ever planned a wedding or special event, you know how costly they can be! One of the biggest numbers on your budget spreadsheet is bound to be flowers and decor. We all want our event to look fabulous, but not all of us can afford the luxury of high-end flowers and decor... That's why I always say, if you want something to fit your pocket, just do it yourself!

I've scoured Pinterest (my most trusty research database!) and come up with 15 gorgeous and inexpensive centrepieces you can do yourself! Enjoy and feel inspired!

Alice in Kempton Park

This is just a short one today - something I've been meaning to share with you for the last few weeks! A bit of a photo entry, shall we say? As you may know (or not...have I even mentioned it?), we're busy working on the Matric Farewell Ball for Shangri-La Academy in Kempton Park, and a few weeks ago we had our decor mock-up! I'm quite excited about this event! Not only was I at school with a few of the teachers, but I was also taught by a number of them in primary school, so this event is close to my heart. I can't explain how excited I was when we got the job!

Their chosen theme is Alice in Wonderland - could a girl ask for any more creative freedom!?! I've had so much fun brainstorming ideas. Below is the inspiration board I came up with to set us on our path.

{Advice} Part 5: Flowers and Decor

Your flowers and decor play a huge role in setting the mood of your wedding, so pay particular attention to it. Many venues have in house florists who will assist with your decor needs. Some venues may even insist you use their florist. Regardless, always make sure your florist understands what you want, and send pictures to be sure - the last thing you want is to arrive on your wedding day to arrangements you didn't order.

{Inspiration} Baby's Breath

This is a trend I am loving at the moment!  Not only is it easy on the wallet, but it's simplicity is genius, lending a certain level of class to any function.  Using baby's breath in large quantities for bouquets, table arrangements, and the like, is a trend that I think will last a while. 

The soft femininity of baby's breath suits any type of wedding, from formal to informal, indoor or outdoor, and will compliment any colour scheme, from an all-white wedding to a brightly coloured event! All I have to say on this point is - simply fabulous!
