I absolutely love the broach you have on your bouquet where did you get that?

I got it from Forever 21! But I totally left it there!! I was soooo sad. That was something I was really excited about having and passing down! Good thing is it didn't cost a fortune

Your wedding looks amazing! How did you diy the coral kissing balls? I would love to try and make these but don't know where to start!

Hi JHo2013,

 

It looks like you used your flower balls from the ceremony as your centerpieces for the reception, which I'm planning on doing as well. Did you bring vases for them or did you rent those from the resort?

Hi - yes they were used as centerpieces again for the reception. Saved me a bunch of money. I made 10 of them. And all of them were used. I actually bought these small salad bowls from Ikea and just flipped the balls with the ribbon side into the bowls and they couldn't have looked any more perfect. Actually I think they outshined the real flowers for sure! The small Ikea bowls were around $1.99 each. I brought a few back, and my mom took a few home now we have lots of snack/salad bowls at home when people visit lol

OMG Jenny your pics are BEAUTIFUL! I just got chills and am SO happy and excited about my special day now!

 

Would you consider selling the kissing balls at all? I have the exact same colour scheme as you!

Thank you so much. They were really easy to make once you get into the groove - but really each ball took me about 1.5hours to make. And the tricky part for me was finding all the flowers that went together. I took lots of pictures on making it. Hopefully I'll get a chance to post them soon

Leelou - how many were you looking to buy? Some family and friends actually took a few home to use on their coffee tables PM me!
