Table wedding flower arrangements are easy and fun to do and can match the style of your wedding. See how these five styles: Pink Champagne, Eternal Love, Casual Amour, Kissing Country and Two Become One may fit your wedding. Follow the easy instructions for a quick style. Transport blossoms cut from your garden to the wedding in a bucket filled with pre-mixed water and fertilizer. Also bring one flower container for each table.

Additional supply items may include scissors, mirror tiles, candles and ribbon.

Pink Champagne [see photograph 1]

Use a champagne glass as a wedding table flower arrangement. Either a plastic or a glass champagne or margarita glass will work. Tie a ribbon around the base of the glass either with a single knot or as a bow tie. Fill the champagne glass with water. Add one large white, one large pink, one stem of greens and one small pink flower. Use a mirror tile to help the arrangement stand out. Add a small candle for an evening wedding.

Eternal Love [see photograph 2]

Use a candlestick with a lip to create this flower arrangement. Wrap a piece of ivy around the stem. Stick a rose with lots of baby's breath and an additional sprig of ivy in the candle well, then secure with a candle and wax or floral gum. Top off with water.

Casual Amour [see photograph 3]

Use a plastic Frisbees as your flower container. Fill with water. Cut one large flat blossom close to the bud and place it in the center. Roses, clematis, daisies work well. Add three smaller flowers on the edges. Add scattered small flowers. Add small green leaves. Use opposing colors to add drama-red and green, blue and yellow, orange and purple. A low-lying arrangement ensures your guests can talk without trying to look over the arrangement. A low-lying arrangement is also good for the guest book table.

Kissing Country [see photograph 4]

Use canning jars, either small or large as your flower container. Buy ribbon on a stick and silk animals that match your bride and groom's interest-in this case a butterfly. In my own wedding we had hummingbirds. But bunches of wild flowers and herbs inside the canning jar. Fill with water. Add the ribbon and silk animal.

PS: I really enjoyed all the pics but for some reason, pic number 3 is mesmerizing me! I think it's the electric vibrant blue dish -- I am so drawn to that color. Again, just beautiful!

Good article. I wrote an article on wedding centerpieces and published it here last night . You can add a half cap of bleach to your bucket of water to kill bacteria and keep the flowers alive longer. The Two Becomes One is my favorite!
