Baby's Breath Highlight

If you are trying to save money but want large bouquets using baby's breath is a great option. You can get a lot of volume for your dollar.  These delicate white flowers give your wedding a lacy look and are perfect especially for weddings in cooler venues or during cooler seasons.

 

See the huge bouquets above for your  aisle for your ceremony--an inexpensive way to look like you've gone all out on your flowers. Just sprinkle some rose petals on the floor between the tall standing bouquets to keep your guests from knocking over the tall vases.

If you like the wreath look for your pews, baby's breath can make inexpensive and easy DIY (do it yourself) wreaths. Add some pastel ribbons to hold them on the pews and they are easy to set up and take down. Use them later on the wall of your reception venue.

Baby's Breath? Use it as a 'breathtaking' centerpiece! Seen here in Style Me Pretty, these huge tall vases filled with these delicate white flowers will 'take your breath away!' OK, so I couldn't resist that...

You can also make bouquets using baby's breath. This flower is so delicate and wispy that it easily lends itself to delicate and lacy wedding looks.

The question is not can you make these simple bouquets or centerpieces, the question is do you WANT to be doing that the night before your wedding or on the morning of your wedding. Personally it would not be my choice (I'd rather pull an extra part time job to pay the florist). But that's me. Some people to do not have my 'black thumb of death' when it comes to flowers, and face it, I'd rather kick back and relax if I get a few extra minutes than be worrying about flowers.  DIY or not to DIY? This is a question  only you can answer.
