Ask a Question - candle vs flowers - KMILLER1's Chocolate Wedding by Color Blog

HERE WE GO AGAIN LADIES... UGGH!!!!! I HAVE 27 PEOPLE IN MY WEDDING PARTY SO FLOWERS FOR EVERYBODY IS JUST NOT AN OPTION. SO I HAVE DECIDED TO DECORATE BRADY SNIFERS AND PLACE A CANDLE IN THEM FOR THE BRIDESMAIDS TO USE AND ONLY GIVE FLOWERS TO THE JR. BRIDESMAIDES .. PROBLEM IS I NEED SOME INSPERATION ON JAZZING THE BRANDY SNIFERS UP AND CAN'T FIND ANYTHING ONLINE... DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT OR HAVE YOU EVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS. I AM GONNA USE THE MONOGRAM THAT WAS MADE FOR US TO PUT ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE GLASS WITH MABE SOME CRYSTALS ADDED AND RIBBON HANGING DOWN OR SOMTHING.

ANY OTHER SUGESTIONS??? OR ANY PHOTOS

27.. Holy cow! im still recovering from the amount of people that you have! hehe.

What you have is a good idea. Ribbon and crystal is brilliant. Remember to go with the less is more approach :) that always seemed to work for me most the time. Unique idea.

ok i will keep that in mind ... and thanks for the feedback!!!!

I don't know if you are completely wedded to the brandy snifter but i have seen several wedding where the brides maids carried one long stem flower.

I was in a wedding a few years ago where we did long stem rose, it was silk but looked very real and they braided ribbon up the stem and left the long ends on the ribbon hanging down from the base of the flower. it was a very pretty look. And one flower each girl and ribbon may be cheaper than getting the glasses, having them monogrammed, and filling them.

Another simple suggestion i've seen was just having the BMs care one taper candle you could maybe even get them in your colors and alternate one color then the next. Again box of candles and holder may be cheaper.

Just a few suggestions hone this helps

THANKS KITTIESWED FOR YOUR HELP I WILL KEEP EVERYTHING YOU SAID IN MIND MOST CERTAIN THE TAPER CANDLE IDEA !! I SHOULD HAVE MENTION THAT I ALREADY HAD THE BRADY SNIFERS I FOUND THEM AT A THRIFT STORE I HAVE 8 OF THEM THEY WERE .10 CENTS A PIECE I ONLY NEED 6 BUT THE OTHER 2 I WILL PUT AT SIGN IN TABLE AND BY THE CAKE.

BUT AGAIN I LIKE THE TAPER CANDLE IDEA BUT DO YOU THINK IT WILL GET TOO HOT BEFOR THE END OF CEREMONY? OR WILL THEY BLOW THEM OUT DURING THE CEREMONY??

I would blow them out early in the cermony because they will melt down. maybe at key point they can blow together likes it planed like after the who gives this woman. your parents say i do and the brides maid blow out the candle or something like that)

if you already have the snifters great find btw. then maybe go with the candle in the snifter that would be my vote

THANKS!!! KITTIEWED I LOVE THE IDEA OF THEM BLOWING THE CANDLE OUT AT THE SAME TIME.... GREAT FEEDBACK I TALKED TO MY GIRLS ABOUT IT AND THEY LOVE THE IDEA TOO!!!!

THANKS AGAIN
