Unique and Simple Centerpieces by Martha Stewart Weddings

When the diva of entertaining and her fab crew come up with an idea, we all watch in fascination, and it's no different with Martha Stewart Wedding Centerpieces.

And in recent years we have seen the rise of ridiculously priced centerpieces, but let’s get real here – is this really where you want a huge chunk of your budget to go? Yes, they look lovely and add a finishing touch to the table, but simple homemade centerpieces can look just as good at a fraction of the cost.

But yes yes yes... I knooooow - who doesn't love Martha and want a wee bit of that "Martha Look" at your weddings - right?! Well, to make it a bit simpler and more affordable I've gone and taken her most simple (and what I consider) her most inexpensive ideas to share with you. Enjoy!

Just make sure you choose wisely...the right choice can help save thousands on your overall wedding costs. (Find out how in Perfect Weddings Without Debt).

Martha Stewart Wedding Centerpieces - Floating Flowers

Utterly simple and yet always beautiful, floating floral centerpieces are easily created at home and can be adapted to suit any color scheme or theme.

For a more sophisticated wedding, use glass bowls and accessorise with candles and glass marbles; for a more rustic outdoor event, opt for handpicked blooms and earthen vessels, in keeping with the overall theme.

Gorgeous peach roses floating in a simple terracotta bowl look charming, and this arrangement can be put together quickly and easily in any setting.

Martha Stewart Wedding Centerpieces - Easy DIY

Some of these Martha Stewart wedding centerpieces are even easier than bouquets to make at home.

Even grouping together several small vases filled with flowers can achieve an effect as glamorous as a large professionally-arranged piece. It’s so simple to do, you might even let your fiancé in on the action!

Adorably colorful with a vintage vibe, this table is studded with recycled tea tins filled with a multitude of blooms, including sweet miniature daisies and vibrant anemones.		The hyacinth bulbs used in this Martha Stewart wedding centerpiece is substantially cheaper than cut flowers. Anchor in gravel-style white stones for a smart look that works well at indoor receptions.

If you’re finding that glass bowls or vases are pushing the cost of your centerpieces up too high, how about using sugar bowls instead?		Create a coherent look with different sized vases or jars by covering them with identical paper bags and securing with a delicate ribbon.

If you stick to unified color scheme, you can get away with very simple arrangements. The result is gorgeously simple yet effective.		Here's she's gone again to use bags for vases. Cute! She probably still needed to use some sort of vase on the inside, at least they wouldn't have to be very fancy!

Martha Stewart Wedding Centerpieces - Potted Plants

A potted plant could very well be one of my favorite Martha Stewart wedding centerpiece ideas. It looks fresh and pretty but is less pricey than a traditional floral arrangement. Plus potted plants have a far longer life and can be cherished as a memory of your special day for years.

These miniature potted orchids look gorgeously delicate, with their white pots and delicate butterfly tags. Even cleverer – they can do double duty as centerpieces and wedding favors. Now there’s a cost-busting idea!		This simple potted plant has been customized to fit in with the wedding theme by planting it in a cute beach bucket and then painting the bucket in the shades of the wedding color palette.
