Bridal bouquet

On the table
Small vases filled with flowers make a table look oh so inviting! Make sure, however, to use really small ones both to leave enough room for the tableware, silverware and glasses and so that guests can still see each other across the table.
Place cards
Reserved seating isn’t always used at wedding receptions these days, but place cards could also be considered an addition to the table decoration. Since cut Anthurium flowers have such sturdy stems, they make ideal place card holders.
Chair decorations
An Anthurium’s sturdy stem gives it yet another purpose: use these cut flowers to decorate the chairs. As you can see from the photo below, quite a length of twine has been used to secure the stem to the chair. Not every flower can take this kind of ‘punishment’.
The bridal table
If the bridal couple is seated in the front so that they can see all their guests, you could beautifully decorate the other side of the table with flowers. After all, no one will be sitting there. And why not disguise the edge of the table with a tablecloth in a pretty colour, cut foliage and Anthurium flowers?
