If you're looking for a cost-effective way to add instant visual interest to your wedding reception venue, you can't go wrong with floral bouquets. You can use a variety of blooms to create stunning, one-of-a-kind table centerpieces to coordinate with any decor theme or color scheme. 

Depending on your wedding budget, you can use either fresh or realistic-looking faux flowers to create the centerpiece bouquets. Work with a local florist that has experience in the wedding industry to get the most blooms for your buck. As another money-saving option, choose bouquets that you can use as home decor after the wedding celebration. 

Bouquet centerpieces are very versatile in that you can make them reflect a wide range of decor styles, from country casual to elegantly modern and everything in between. To help narrow down your list of bouquet options, start by choosing a reception theme. 

Here are some table centerpiece bouquet ideas to consider when planning your reception:

1. Tropical

A tropical decor theme and flowers are a match made in floral heaven. Start by setting the stage with vibrantly hued tablecloths or runners in shades such as fern green, banana yellow, coral, or bright pink.

Have your florist create eye-catching bouquets with an assortment of tropical blooms, including hibiscus, birds of paradise, ginger, bromeliad, orchids, and jasmine. Place them in either traditional glass or porcelain vases for a classic look, or get creative with colorful vases or plant pots. Don't forget to add plenty of greenery as well. 

Round out the centerpiece displays with tropical-scented candles, green plants, or other island-inspired decor items. Decorate guests' place settings with smaller, individual vases, tea lights, or votives in personalized candle holders.

2. Winter Wonderland 

Liven up a sophisticated winter wonderland wedding reception theme with handfuls of fresh blooms in the centers of the dinner tables. Enhance each table with a crisp white tablecloth and silver runner to reflect the icy color scheme.

Fill either white glass or silver vases with bouquets of fragrant white flowers, including roses, daisies, calla lilies, tulips, hydrangeas, and daffodils. To save some money, stick with either faux or in-season real blooms. 

Fill out the centerpiece displays by inserting silver spray-painted branches into the vases as well, or place them into their own vessels next to the bouquets. Hang tiny glass or plastic icicle-shaped ornaments from the branches to add to the winter wonderland look. Tiny white string lights will also contribute to the ambiance.
