- 1). Choose an all-white flower arrangement. Select the flowers from roses, orchids, gardenias or tube roses. Add incandescent or pearl-colored, cut-glass beads to the bottom half of the vase. Pour in warm water mixed with plant food. Group the flowers together in a rounded display. Stick the largest flowers in the center and the smaller ones by the sides. Tie a white ribbon interspersed with faux white pearl beads around the neck of the vase. Allow the ends to dangle. Place a picture of the happy couple in a white-ivory frame and put it next to the vase.
- 2). Create an exotic display with peacock feathers and flowers. Soak plant foam in a mixture of water and plant food for 20 minutes. Place the foam into a low-lying rectangular container. Stick a line of peacock feathers down the center of the foam. Surround the feathers with a mix of flowers that complement the eye of the feather. Choose blue flowers like platycodon, nigella, hydrangea and forget-me-not or purple flowers, such as irises, lavender or lilac. Cut the flowers to come below the eye and hit the bright greens of the feather. Sprinkle flower petals around the container.
- 3). Design a floating flower and candle display for a winter wedding. Stack two books in the center of the table and cover them. Place a large margarita glass in the center of the books, tear the petals off a red rose and fill the neck of the glass with the petals. Snap the flower buds off of the stem. Pour water into the glass and insert the rose buds. Add two floating white candles. Drop rose petals with white taper candles on the "steps" made by the stacked books.
- 4). Construct a flower-box centerpiece as you gather peach and yellow ranunculuses together into a bouquet. Wrap an elastic band around the stalks. Snip the ends and insert them into a flower tube filled with water. Place a white gift box in the center of the table. Place a heavy object inside and close the box. Slice a small circle on the top of the box and slip the flowers inside. Keep the flower heads about an inch above the box. Add a bow to the box.
- 5). Place a large hosta leaf in the back of a vase three-quarters filled with vivid orange tinted aqua crystals. Add one bird of paradise to the vase. Balance the display with three royal purple pillar candles of graduated height on the opposite side of the single flower.
