Question for wedding florist for center peices?
I want to do center pieces that make a statement without costing a fortune. I LOVE the white ostrich feather in the tall vases but to cut cost what do you think about adding the Pampas grass to give it more of a natural look and mimic a palm tree? Also how do you get the plumes to stay in the vase so they dont slide down or fall out? I have a few years to go but I am trying to find something more original and not readily seen. Thank you for your time to help me with my question.
Also I didnt realise there is different heights of these eiffel tower vases what is the commonly used height when usinf ostrich feathers so they dont hang in the way of the guests vision?
The comb thing that was mentioned is called a Kensan or pin frog – but would not fit in an eifel tower vase, if that is the vase you are reffering to. And in general would not work for this style of design regardless of the vase.
In general you want all flowers/foliage etc above 17 inches to not block conversation across the table. So I generally use vase that are 24 to 27 inches tall.
Depending on the look you are going for, the plumes are either balanced as they tilt side ways or wedged with other stems to stay in position. Most florist have other tricks too depending on the effect we are trying to acheive.
