Cost-effective flower fillers like star-of-Bethlehem and sweet william can be combined with more exotic varieties to stretch a budget. {I know I've said this before, but it's worth saying again....don't knock the carnation out of the line-up. There is a large variety and they can be blown out, they look quite chic in rich colors and done well! I will post some great carnation centerpieces in July from my best friend's wedding we're doing. In the mean time...Happy Planning!)
