Boring Banquet Hall into Beautiful

If you don't know by looking at my logo, website and blog~ my FAVORITE flower is the Gerber Daisy. I love their simplistic beauty and the gorgeous colors. They are also very budget friendly~ go figure!! If you need many centerpieces and want to use real flowers; I love either using Gerber daisies or carnations. They are very easy to work with, are not expensive and no need to be a floral designer. These arrangements are simply clusters of daisies in three tiers - sort of like a 3 tier topiary.

The client chose a pink and green color combo. Place cards for guests..continued with the Gerber daisies.

Close up of the flowers on the place card table. You will be surprised at the gorgeous flowers you can get from your local warehouse stores such as Costco and Sam's. Also, become friends with your local farmers market vendors. They are such an awesome resource!!

You don't have a large budget so you're using a banquet hall. Why are they all beige? Never fear...

You know I LOVE lanterns...I always say they fill a space and add instant color!!

Gerber topiaries for the buffet adds the much needed height to the banquet halls buffet table of silver chaffing dishes.
