Why do people take the center pieces of flowers from wedding receptions?
because they die
Reply:We told them to. LOL


What do you do with 40 centerpieces? They took them all too!
Reply:What is the bride and groom going to do with 25 flower centerpieces? . Why not let people take them?
Reply:Well, usually the couple has nowhere to use that big number of arrangements - they may take one home, and give one to each of their family members. Often, there is some sort of draw or something from guests sitting at the table to see who will take home the centerpiece.
Reply:People love getting things for free -- especially things like flowers from weddings. It's like they feel like it's a bonus for the time and energy they spent coming to the wedding.
Reply:Well they only get chucked out so why not
Reply:i would want them to take home and dry.then i could remember the couple everytime i saw the flower's.
Reply:Usually the couple gives them away to someone at each table. What would you do with 20 centerpieces? They give them away so someone can enjoy them before they die. My mom loves getting the centerpieces from weddings. She puts them on her table.
Reply:I'd rather a person took them home and had a few days enjoyment from having fresh flowers in their home than them being chucked in the bin straight away.
Reply:LMAO....LOL i dont no good Q thou


Now u have me think that
Reply:USUALLY BECAUSE THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL. OTHER THAN THAT...THEY'RE FREE....WHY NOT?
Reply:usually the couple gives them to one guest at each table they tell one person that they can take it home. then you dont have to worry about having so many centerpieces to take home.
Reply:Lets see I'm paying $120 for each center piece at my wedding reception and the flowers are mine to kepp after the reception is done. I can eigther have the place throw the flowers away or have my guest and family take the flowers home since they are so beautiful and fresh flowers.





I think people take them home because at the end of the day the purpose of the flower is done for the reception so people can have them instead of them going to waste.
Reply:because there pretty i guess
Reply:Most brides and grooms will encourage guests to take them. Usually they will tell the oldest female at the table or something like that. If you leave them behind the reception location will just throw them away anyway.
Reply:because they're tacky people?
