FLORAL HOW-TO WEEK | CB x Fifty Flowers: Styling Milk Glass Vases

It's Floral How-To Week on CB (where I'm sharing a week's worth of floral tutorials, tips, tricks + more thanks to FiftyFlowers.com who partnered up with me and provided some truly beautiful blooms!). Yesterday, I shared vase alternatives for floral arrangements but today it's all about the power of a beautiful bud vase! As you may know, I heavily used vintage milk glass vases and compotes in my own wedding and I still love them to bits. They create such a clean and classic look! Here's a few ideas on how to style milk glass:


For my wedding reception, I asked our florist to line the loooong reception table with vintage milk glass vases and compotes (that I had collected over the year leading up to our wedding) filled with creamy white hydrangeas and glossy magnolia leaves. The end results looked prettier than I had even imagined. So I thought I'd recreate that vision on a smaller scale by placing single white peony stems in some of the bud vases I still have - doesn't it look so crisp?


I also love the idea of grouping milk glass bud vases together in a larger vessel to create a bigger statement. These vintage French bottle crates (below) lend a more rustic feel and would look great at a garden or courtyard wedding. And they are for sale so head to my shop here if you're interested. ;)


Again, everything featured in this post will soon be headed for my wedding boutique (if it's not there already) so shoot me a message at theclassicbride@gmail.com for more details if you're interested.

UPDATE! Everything has been stocked! Hop over to my shop see the selection of milkglass!
