Re: nice/cheap decorations...

I would keep it clean, simple and tasteful. I'm not the paper decorations type, but instead, I would get nice white linens for the tables, maybe tie some bows around the back of the chairs and get some fishbowls and buy some roses and put them in the fishbowls.

Nice and simple. Chat Icon

Re: nice/cheap decorations...

That sounds nice, i think decorations depend on where u have it, like if oyu do a backyard thing than you can get more but in a restaurant i would keep it more simple with linens etc

I second Dollar Tree. Cheap/nice paper goods...or you can find some discontinued items at Party City sometimes for reasonable prices.

We are keeping it simple and doing flower centerpieces (bowls with roses or other bulk flower on sale), mini chocolate bars in personalized wrappers on the tables, and favors (small jar yankee candles wrapped in tulle with ribbon).

Me too! I hope most of our guests like them-but if not, that's okay. They can leave the behind and I'll take them home!
