Cherry Blossom Weddings


Looking for a simple yet romantic accent for your tabletops?  These artificial cherry blossoms in simple white vases are an easy DIY project for the bride.  Since they aren't alive, no watering required, so you can put them together well ahead of time.  Consider sprinkling some pink 'diamonds' on the tabletop or adding some pink votives if you think it looks a little bare.  $10.99/set of two.

Alison once again strikes gold with her gold medal worthy designs for both ceremony and tabletop.  It makes me wish I lived in Vermont so she could do my flowers! So instead I will just have to admire from afar and hope she trains some excellent interns and sends them south!  These designs show the range of her artistry, or at least attempt to.
