How to Care for Orchids : Orchid Root Care & Maintenance: Part 1
Combination of Dried & Fresh Flowers?
My dad’s cousin has offered to create my floral arrangements for me as a wedding gift (provided I supply the cost of the materials, which I don’t mind). She is completely happy with me choosing whatever I’d like and making it for me.
My mother has made it clear that she expects me and the bridal party to be sporting fresh florals the day of. I’ve given up talking to her about it because she just yells, gets angry, and won’t listen (she’s also paying for the wedding along with Drew’s parents).
But because my cousin would only have an hour and a half to set up for the wedding due to venue rules, and because she’s not actually a florist (just a hobby of hers), I’m afraid that asking her to do bouquets and centerpieces would tax her time, her energy, and her fridge.
I recently bought one foot tall apothecary jars for my center pieces and I’m quite happy with them. My idea is to go ahead and ask for a simple bouquet arrangements for the day of. But for centerpieces, fill the apothecary jars with dried white flowers and some dried greenery. It’s cheaper than fresh flowers (I can get 30 large white orchids for $10, not bad since I love orchids) and we can create the arrangements ahead of time and deliver them two weeks before the wedding along with the programs, cake cutters, etc. The venue has already said they accept everything we want to give them early, in fact they prefer it in case of time crunches.
Would it look wrong having dried arrangements in apothecary jars but fresh bouquets? The fresh flowers would be similar to the dried flowers (white roses/hydrangea/orchids).
Some of the flowers I was planning on ordering for the jars:

ALSO: If you do like my idea, what do you think about adding birds nest and butterflies to a couple of the pieces for a summery touch?

Wedding colors are fern (olive-ish) and off-white with touches of dark brown for a morning June wedding.

I like your color & flower choices but I really don’t like the dried flower idea. The butterflies are cute but not with dried flowers. It’s all just too . . . well dry. They would look good with fresh flowers though. The bird nests I don’t like at all. Unless they had birds in them, I’d probably be trying to figure out what the dried up thing on the table is. So, I’d say butterflies with fresh flowers.

I think it’s perfect
When I first read that you wanted to do dried flowers, I thought about the really dry, actually dead looking ones. But when I looked at the pictures, I see that they are so pretty. Have you shown your mom what your ideas are? Maybe if you sat her down with pictures of everything that you want to do, and tell her how much it means to you, she might come around. Or, take the cost of it on yourself, so that she doesn’t have the upper hand in it.
Good Luck, and your wedding sounds like it’s going to be beautiful!!

We are doing a similar thing for my daughter’s wedding in June. Fresh flower bouquets for the wedding party, the guys, dads, moms and grandmas. But for the reception, making up a combination of dried arrangements with a few fresh flowers that will be added at the last minute — possibly roses, iris, not really sure yet.(also doing this as we are making these up before hand).
Our centerpieces will be in 12" vases with these great bead fillers that expand on contact with water. Just tried them out last night and they are wonderful. Lights in the water (2 pink lights for each vase). Going to have dried pussy willows – which look just like fresh, possibly ferns and other dried fillers (love the ones you have here). Then a few fresh flowers to round it out. Since the wedding is in another State then where we live, it is much easier to do and make ahead, and they are going to look terrific.
Your colors sound really pretty and the choices you found here are great — thanks for sharing, I’m earmarking those pages.

It will look fine. I can’t think of a single wedding I’ve attended where I’ve compared the flowers in the girls’ hands to the ones on the tables. Go with it and don’t give it a second thought.
