Centerpieces/ Decorations/ Flowers Help!

[calgarybride2015]

I'd try Michael's or even Walmart. Look in the craft and kitchen section.

@@lornj29 ya, I can put a photo on here once I get it together. I'm kinda sick right now, but soon I'll get it together and show u!

And my florist resurfaced after 2 + weeks. Said was on vacation for a month. Lol ok...

That looks really pretty! Is that a burlap table runner? I was thinking of doing that but can't find any that won't break the budget! For some reason all the ones I saw were over $10 each and that isn't worth it to me since I need at least 8.

 

Wow so what are you bringing down?? Do you have a picture of the centerpiece you are doing? I don't know weather to do the flowers in water or just bring down the candles in the cylinder vases. Which florist are you using in riviera maya?
I made this just to see what it would look like what do ya think?

@@TinkerSofi @@Shipwrecked2015 Anyone know where I can see Love and Lace Reviews other than the few listed on the FB? Im really interested in maybe doing this then having to bring all this decor with me next year. this will really help with package cost and customs. Does anyone know of any other decor rental places to compare to Love and Lace?

 

Thanx for the help!

I haven't used her and I'm not sure I will. Not because I don't think she's good, I'm not using a lot of decor so I have bought most things. However, she's always been really responsive when I contacted her and I know of a few people that used her services and they were very happy. I don't know of anyone else that does this sadly. 

 

I would ask @@reynbow or @. Both of them rented out stuff from her.

@@TinkerSofi thank you! I will contact them and see if they have any further info they can share.

[Shipwrecked2015]

Yes I did email her! She didn't have all those vases but she had one size. Are you renting from her? What are you renting? I wish u could just get from her then I wouldn't have to worry about it!

I kind of like this too.. Very simple. Does anyone know where I could find a white tray like this??image.jpg

 

Not sure that we're renting anything from Love & Lace yet - possibly signs, baskets, napkins, and/or birdcage type things.  I just know that she has lots of candle and centerpiece items and she seems well-versed in renting to clients who want to avoid outside vendor fees.  

We're getting our centerpieces and flowers from Cherry Blossom in Playa.  Sandra has been great and their prices are excellent compared to other vendors we've seen in the area.  We're bringing down our own tea candles for the centerpieces since they're $3.99 for a bag of 100 at Ikea and they have to pay WAY more than that locally.  Cherry Blossom might do the off-property handoff thing but I'm not sure because it's not an issue for us.  It's worth asking.

I used Love & Lace and she was AWESOME. It all started because I really wanted those lights that are the bulbs on the string. There has to be a better way for me to explain that. Anyway, the hotel was going to charge me $200 for a strand of lights. They told me I needed at least 10 strands. That's when I read about Katy on this site somewhere. She charged like $15 per strand. Clearly so much cheaper. I literally rented almost everything she has. You name it, I rented it..lights, chargers, vases, burlap runners, lace runners, chair sashes, candles, paper bags to line the pool...the list goes on and one. I rented everything and it was awesome. It looked absolutely stunning. She's great to work with too. She's very responsive and so organized. She arranged a time for me to meet her in town and get everything from her. Then I didn't have to pay an outside vendor fee. She even got sparklers for me which was great! I really wanted sparklers and the hotel was going to charge me $8/sparkler!!! She even bought matches for me. Of course, I paid her...but she's the best. I HIGHLY recommend using her. She saved me on cost a lot. A LOT. I was already bringing so many suitcases with everything welcome bag oriented so I didn't have room for decorations. I even rented sheers and a "light wall" from her. It was beautiful.  You can always email me at khmciver@@gmail.com and I'm happy to answer more questions. I'll find some pics to post. 

@@racht33 Here are some pictures. @@lornj29 I would check Container Store for a tray or target. I saw white lacquer trays at both of those recently.

Thank you!! I really appreciate it! I LOVED the hanging bottles too. Katy did the hanging bottles. It was perfect! I still had to order my flowers from the hotel which were a FORTUNE!!! If I were to do it again, I would have considered buying silk flowers for my decorations. No one would have noticed because I've seen some really pretty ones! All flowers for my wedding were from the hotel so they did the flowers on the gazebo, the roses in the bottles, the babies breath in the mason jars that were on the aisle chairs and the flower petals on the runner. It was beautiful!
