Red and Black Wedding

I know that Valentine's Day has come and gone, but we found these pics in our archives and had to share. Some of the events that we do the couple is on a very tight budget, but we firmly believe that you shouldn't give up the look that you want for your event. It just might need some tweaking.
What we did for this wedding was take roses and red carnations and took this black and red wedding to the next level. Some people may frown at the thought of using carnations but when done correctly (like here with the tall mercury glass) no one will think twice about using this inexpensive flower. Then we bought red roses in bulk. On every other table we laid down a bunch of rose petals and placed simple votive candles on top. We placed a generous layer of roses on the head table too. We also like adding linens to enhance the look we are going for.
