Floor Gardens + Aisle Candles → Estate Table Adornments
We LOVE this flip! Look at literally everything decorating your ceremony as a potential table accent: floral arrangements, candles, lanterns, vases, and other pieces are all perfect.
Some of our favorite wedding pictures are of the bridal party surrounded in elegance at the estate table with all the beauty from the ceremony aisle used to create a fresh, exciting atmosphere.
Ceremony Florals → Statement Mantle Piece
If you’re at a venue like The Wheeler House, you have the opportunity to fill a mantle with gorgeous florals and decor. You can make it amazing by using what you already have!
In this styled shoot, we combined two ceremony floral arrangements into one large statement floral piece for the mantle to create the perfect backdrop for the bride and groom.
Every Bouquet → Enhanced Table Centerpieces
Yes, everyone loves to use bridesmaids’, bride’s, mother’s, and grandmother’s bouquets to complete the fullness of their tables, but the secret is in the varying votives and vases to add a layering effect in style and height.
In addition to repurposing every bouquet, consider adding the tiniest bud vases of every style.
Ceremony Arbor → Breath-Taking Estate Table Backdrop
For venues like The Foxglove or Ambient + Studio that require a room flip, you can repurpose the ceremony arbor. (Note: Choosing this decor decision early is helpful in planning as large rentals, such as arbors, should remain stationary throughout an event...)
Frame the bride and groom at the reception for a statement photo-op that drips in gorgeous flowers.
Aisle Lanterns → Guest Tables, High Tops, Or Bar Accents
Your aisle lanterns are easy to grab and go anywhere with smaller floral arrangements to fill a space.
This is a great way to add moments of pretty in every corner. The contrast in style of the natural florals and the lanterns blend together to add the perfect balance in design.
Make your day easy. Make your day beautiful. Make it work for you.
You would be shocked to learn all the ways we can repurpose your rentals and make the day you dream about that doesn’t break your budget.
*Important to note: Always make sure you have someone who can flip these things for you! These repurposed styling tips are all things a coordinator or planner can do easily - we don’t recommend having family or guests do this for you.
The goal is for your special day to be everything you want it to be, without worrying or being focused on event function. You need a plan and then the gift of enjoying your day.
