Materials for Wedding Candelabra Decoration:

Floral foam cage, preferably 3″ x 6″

Plenty of different sized greenery bush

Small floral sticks

4-5 Large silk flowers

A floral bush with small flowers

Ribbons (thin ones)

Floral wire

Here are a few tips to help you make your own wedding candelabra decoration:

First choose the color of the candelabra itself. Some color options are gold, silver bronze and pewter.

Next, choose a greenery or floral bush that has a weeping look to it. The reason for this is so that the floral bush drapes down along the candelabra’s front. Cut the stems and add floral sticks.

From the top view of the floral cage, start adding your greenery making sure that they go out and drape down. The longer stems must stay at the bottom with at least 3 to 4 stems of another greenery just to add some color to the base. Don’t worry if the greenery you’ve applied so far looks scant. You’re going to fill up those odd spaces with silk flowers later on.

Cut the large silk flower stems and add floral sticks. You may place the large silk flower at the top or in the middle.

Cut the smaller silk flowers, add floral sticks and arrange them on top of the draping greenery. Push them upwards so that they lay along the greenery.

Make bows with the ribbons, add a floral stick and place it right smack to accent the floral arrangement.

Use the floral wire to attach the whole arrangement to your candelabra.

Basically, creating your own wedding candelabra decoration is fun and easy as long as you put your heart to it. Make your wedding more memorable by creating your own wedding decoration.
