What is your idea of the perfect wedding?

Does a wedding conjure up thoughts of a classic cathedral, or a country picnic? Do you think red roses are the perfect expression of love, or is a bouquet of wildflowers more your style? As you plan your 2016 wedding, your ideas and plans are all your own, and the only limit is your own imagination. Nanz and Kraft is ready to recommend the flowers – and design the arrangements – that will perfectly reflect your vision of the day.

There are several popular trends for this year’s weddings; one of which is dramatic, soaring centerpieces that draw the eye upwards and provide an elegant air. This elongated effect can be achieved with tall vases, creative platforms, or long stalks of elegant flowers.

In this beautiful arrangement, polygon vases add interest to a truly sophisticated centerpiece of white orchids. The bouquet rises above the place settings and illustrates one aspect of tall arrangements that you may not think of – your guests will enjoy unhindered conversation, without peering around the flowers.

For their al fresco wedding celebration, this couple displayed green hydrangea, purple mums and wildflowers with natural details in a rustic spray that celebrates the beauty of the outdoors. The flowers were elevated above the table settings with a vintage style metal stand that also elevated the romantic ambiance.

Additional florals that lend well to tall centerpieces are snapdragons, gladioli, coral bells and lupine flowers. Calla lilies placed in tall vases make for a statuesque display that exudes sophistication; while long-stemmed sunflowers provide rustic beauty that is a bit more homespun.
