What would be good filler flowers for wedding centerpieces?
Posted by in August 6th 2010
I am using Stargazer Lillies and Gladiolous, and Roses. What would be good filler flowers for the Altar arrangements & table arrangements? The wedding colors ar Azelea & white. Wedding is next week!!! Please Help!
hi there i am using sand and mixes of silver and mint pebbles as a table decoration in a small wide glass vase with roses sitting in them hope this helps good luck x
Without knowing what colour azalea is, I’m going to suggest maybe tulips, they’ve got clean simple lines and always looks elegant.. But maybe with all those longer stemmed flowers, something with a bit of body would be better? Peony Roses are gorgeous but can be hard to get… Only other one I can think of could be calla lillies. Anyway, best of luck. And just for fun:
You can use some greenery for the filler, Or baby’s breath, queen Anne’s lace. I wouldn’t use any other color but the greenery or white.
You need to hurry my dear, your big day is next week, CONGRATULATIONS!!!
BTW…The color azalea is going to be beautiful!!
The obvious choice for filler with these flowers would be baby’s breath, at least for the table arrangements. For the altar arrangements, baby’s breath can get lost unless you use quite a bit, and it’s kinda pricey compared to some fillers. You might try monte casino asters (http://dubaiflowers.net/english/aste246a.jpg)
for your altar arrangements, or depending on their scale, you might even go as big as spray mums (http://bonnieblueperennials.com/images/MUM_Snowtime.jpg) for filler. It’s important to keep the scale of the design in mind when choosing your filler. Baby’s breath might be fine for a design viewed up close, but harldy noticeable in a big spray viewed from 50 feet away. Good luck, the other flower choices sound lovely!

Alstroemeria’s (also called peruvian lilies) are a great, inexpensive choice.

Hypericum would be pretty!
