Bright Red and Pink Bud Vase Centerpieces

When it came to the reception decor, Risa and Michael kept things simple yet colorful, opting out of traditional centerpieces for playful bud vases filled with bright red and pink flowers and dressing the tables with bright turquoise linens. The decision allowed both the architectural features at the Foundry in Long Island City, New York, and the couple’s personalities to shine through. “We did not have any major centerpieces, formal seating, place settings or name cards,” Risa says. “We just wanted to marry each other and have a huge dance party. And make music, dancing and color the focus of the whole thing.”
