I am getting married on 6/6/09 at this location: http://www.metroparkstoledo.com/metroparks/services/gallery.asp?gid=123
its a gorgeous park with a cute gazebo. I wan to have a summery sunflower theme, and want sunflowers for the bouquets. The bridesmaid dresses are cocktail length in a green with lighter green sash (davids bridal clover and honeydew). The reception site is a really standard banquet hall. How can i decorate this hall for a summery sunflower feel. I am on a tight budget. Any suggestions to make this a simple summery sunflower wedding are appreciated. I have no clue where to start when thinking about decorating. Favor ideas??? thanks!!!!

Well, the obvious is to have fresh-cut sunflowers as centerpieces, as well as bouquets. My sister was in a wedding with sunflowers (and light green dresses as well) and the simple bouquets were beautiful.

I’m getting married in November and Sunflowers are the only flowers I’m using. However, my colors are chocolate brown and autumn red… But each bridesmaid will have small simple bouquets, and I’m having just small simple bouquets for the table decorations. Simply becasue the flowers are so large in size and beautiful as is! For favors, I’ve seen ideas of making burnt cd’s with a sunflower label and different songs that relate to the bride and groom. You could also get sunflower seeds to plant, put in a small favor box/bag, and attach a small poem or phrase about planting in reference to the love that you to share…There are much pretty ways to put that, I just can’t think of it exactly. Also, you could get eatable seeds, with a poem or phrase attached. Good Luck!

Yellow table cloths. green accents.
white christmas-tree lights…and some yellow ones too.
Yellow pin-wheel favors?
Ya’know…sunflowers are actually a Fall flower…you may want to think about daiseys.

Here’s a link for 150 sunflower stems for $129. And any flowers I’ve seen from Costco actually look really nice.
