Thoughts from proposal season - Go petite!
 

Hello! In my first in a series of posts on thoughts from proposal season, I discussed “Going big” on focal pieces for your wedding. And today, it’s contrasting advice - “Go petite!” When I suggested “Going big” on the things that matter most to you, the balance is also often to create some petite, but still lovely, pieces to make sure you cover all the bases. This could be a mix of larger and more petite centerpieces, smaller boutonnieres/corsages (or it’s becoming more popular to skip these entirely, and that’s ok with me!), or smaller bridesmaid bouquets. Some centerpieces could be a petite candle collection, and especially in areas that will mostly be used in the evening in dim light (like a separate dancing space), leaning int to candles will give the most impact. I like to say that I only make pieces that I would be happy to have at my own event, so even when I suggest a very petite centerpiece, it can be perfectly lovely and create a spark of joy on the table. Fell free to go petite in places, so you can go big in the places that matter most to you!
