marta12's Blue wedding

As most brides and a la my blog below I've been putting a lot of time and energy researching and working out little details that I want to incorporate on our big day.

Besides Boutonnieres my latest obsession are place settings.

I'm thinking white table cloths, black damask runners(?still thinking about this?), white plates, white napkins, black/blue menu card, something blue favors, and a flower at each setting....seems like too much doesn't it. I'm going to try and recreate it at home this weekend to see if maybe the flower I want might be too much.

I was thinking that the something blue favors would help decorate the tables but now if I had to chose between a flower at each setting and the favors, I would chose the flower and let the favors be picked up either at entrance (serving as escort card holders like in the picture) or when people leave.

The flowers in the first picture would match my centerpieces. But I'm not sure if this is the flower I would use. I really love gerbera daisies (however they don't fit my theme), and tulips which would totally fit. Unfortunately I have not been able to find a picture with a place setting with a tulip on a napkin.

The one with the orchid looks tre elegante!
