Brown and Pink Centerpieces

Of all of the weddings that I have planned or been involved with in some way, mine has been the most challenging -- design wise. I believe it is because of the colors that I have chosen. That was another reason that I chose this color scheme, though... because I had never done it. I finally found the perfect centerpieces! I bought these Cherry Blossom Branches, standing 38" tall, in buckets and I am going to snip them out of the buckets and put them in 30" pilsner vases. I got them from Craigslist (that is where the photo is from as well) for $130 for 8 buckets!! That is a STEAL!
Since the branches are brown and the cherry blossoms are the perfect shade of pink, these will be PERFECT for our reception! We will also have about 12 votives on each of the tables along with scattered petals. Our linens will make a huge impact at the reception as well... Chocolate brown tablecloths, Bubblegum pink chaircovers, and Satin Chocolate Sashes.
