IKEA

Ikea? for flowers for a wedding. I must say, I am very amused but also intrigued at the same time.

Using Ikea was such a terrific way to save money. I highly recommend doing this. They have flowers, vases, dishes, and other decorations available.

Gotta love Ikea. I live practically next door to the Emeryville Ikea so I bought pillows for the kid's area and a bunch of Bubbla picture holders for the table holders. Now I gotta figure out what to do with all this stuff.

IKEA offers the best for a large wedding for brides on a budget! They have great selection for centerpieces especially vases and clear marbles ($1 / jar). I ended up creating my own centerpiece from IKEA parts and they were amazing. We used some Cala Lillies along with floating candles.

Best part was, any extras that we didn't up using, we brought back. The people there were knowledgeable too so it must be quite a common practice.

I bought some cute white bud vases to use with our centerpieces for $1.99 each which saved us a ton on our florist bill. It's definitely worth going through that maze!

I wanted TONS of candles in all different sizes for the reception and the after party, and Ikea had prices that no one could beat. Everything looked great!

Bought all our glasses there, mostly wine goblets. It turned out that purchasing IKEA glasses was more economical, and we love the idea of supporting a business that has been taking it seriously when it comes to being sustainable and eco-friendly before it became a hip idea to do so. Instead of hording all the glasses, we ended up giving them away after the wedding to friends who helped us out on the day of.

We purchased all of the vases for our centerpieces at IKEA and they worked out beautifully!
