sorry for all the questions
Good timing... The UPS guy just came by about 20 minutes ago. I think they look pretty good... they look much better than a lot of fake orchids I've seen before. Granted they are not real. But I don't see any wire on the backside of the petals... Do yours have wire showing??!

Some of them have hot glue strings on them, but they can be easily picked off. Hope you like yours too!

This is the set up for my escort cards. I'll just be tieing the name cards to the stems. I'm just going to place them on the table w/ votives around it. Does it look messy? Maybe I should place them in a sand box, to anchor them a little...what do you guys think?

I think anchoring them is a good idea! Play around with a few of them and see how it turns out

I was just on weddingbee.com and saw this post Buying In Bulk Weddingbee. I think this will be perfect for my escort table. And at a dollar a vase, you can't beat it!
