Flowers at the Wedding Reception
76Reception Site Flowers
First of all, if you do not have a bridal consultant, make a floral worksheet with your florist's name, phone number, address, contact person, date ordered, time of delivery, location of delivery, grand total, deposit and balance due.
Next list all of your floral needs, including the floral descriptions (size, color and style), and the cost.
In this hub, I'll be dealing with the reception site flowers.
The Bride's Table
The reception bride's table should be long and low or large and tall. Everyone wants to see the bride and groom, so make sure that the flowers do not hide them.
Here are some examples of flowers at the bride's table.

The Bride's Throwaway Bouquet
This bouquet is usually a nosegay, tied with long ribbons.
Flowers having several blossoms on one stem are gaining popularity, such as larkspur, lily of the valley and dendrobium orchid. These blooms achieve an open, airy effect.
Sometimes the throwaway bouquet is made of silk flowers, so the person catching it may use it as a keepsake.
