The WG Centrepiece Shop
Welcome to the all-new Centrepiece Shop within the Shops @ WG! Every Thursday, our design and sales team will be bringing you a new centrepiece idea complete with photo inspiration, DIY How-Totutorial, pricing estimates, and access to our fabulous Wedding-Planner wholesale shopping.
Today’s gorgeously elegant centrepiece was first published on MarthaStewart.com and has inspired many-a-bride to recreate a similar romantic look on their own reception tables.
{ the Breakdown }
To create this centrepiece, you will need:
1) a 2″ styrofoam riser (with a 12″ diameter)
2) a 12″ round mirror
3) 3″ wide satin ribbon to match your wedding decor (with a smaller accenting ribbon if you’d like)
4) a ridiculous amounts of straight pins
5) a cylinder vase
6) long-burning votive candles in glass votive holders
7) loose floral stems
{ the DIY details }
Creating this centrepiece riser is the most time-consuming part of the entire project. You will need to use straight pins to attach your satin ribbon to the top and bottom of the styrofoam riser and meticulously make sure that the ribbon is tightly folded over itself so that it doesn’t bulge when you place the riser on the table with the mirror on top. This would be an excellent time to recruit your bridesmaid posse to lend a hand! Once your wide base ribbon is attached, you can accent it with a thinner coloured ribbon, or some textured element that matches your design such as burlap or lace. These can often be attached with double sided tape, or pulled tightly and secured with a couple of straight pins.
You can also use the same accenting ribbon or texture to accentuate the bottom (or middle, or top!) of your cylinder vase. Keep in mind that the bolder the colour, the more it will draw the eye – so you decide where you want your guests looking! In the inspiration photo, the ribbon at the base of the vase anchors the centrepiece and creates more dimension around the candles, leaving the flowers to showcase themselves.
{ the Cost }
This beautiful centrepiece is remarkably affordable to create! You can get the riser, mirror, ribbon, and long-burning (12 hour) votives (in glass) for under $25 per table through the Shops @ WG! Fresh florals are also available. *Note: Specific pricing is subject to adjustment based on quantities purchased.
