Lord Thompson Manor Wedding Flower Containers
Jan 7th, 2010 by Lord Thompson Manor
One of the Lord Thompson Manor’s favorite aspects of Wedding décor is, of course, the floral arrangements. The excitement begins with the enormous variety of colors, scents and shapes; the number of stems, blooms and buds; and, of course, the size of the flowers and the arrangements—but it doesn’t stop there. We at the Lord Thompson Manor are even passionate about the incredible plethora of possibilities when it comes to flower containers.
Clear glass vases are, of course, the most popular way to display a Wedding Flower Arrangement. Naturally, Flower Arrangements often come in large, somewhat conical vases with numerous stems and blooms. Sometimes at the Lord Thompson Manor, our centerpieces consist of three small arrangements in rectangular glass vases, accented by pure white votive candles. Another elegant possibility is to have numerous glass containers of various shapes and sizes with just a few flowers in each, so that every arrangement consists of one tall, thin vase and others in consecutively smaller sizes, down to a single bloom in a votive holder; in this way, every arrangement can be both unified and unique.
However, flower containers don’t need to be clear, or even glass. Sometimes, the Lord Thompson Manor uses colorful and decorative stemware for floral arrangements. For example, we might place white or purple flowers in a gilded purple brandy snifter. Ceramic vases can also be a versatile choice, whether they are in a gleaming solid color or decorated with a geometric pattern. Sometimes, it can even be a good idea to go metallic. The Lord Thompson Manor has some brass-colored vases that match our candelabras, making a perfect centerpiece.
