Centerpieces as Favors

Over the many years of wedding planning, we were faced with a dilemma at the end of each wedding: What do we do with all of those beautiful flowers? We’d encourage the guests to take home their favorite centerpiece and shared ideas with our couples how they could re-purpose their wedding flowers into home decorations. And let’s not forget how excited we were when they offered a beautiful centerpiece to each of us to enjoy in our own homes at the end of the night.

This memory has inspired one of our most treasured and thoughtful Hostful Hacks to date: Instead of one large floral centerpiece, use small bud vases to create multiple, smaller arrangements. Then, send them home with your guests as favors.
