When you go in for your first floral appointment, you’ll hear a lot of new words or terminology that may as well be a foreign language to you. For example, what is a Pavé (pah-vay) floral arrangement?

One of the hottest wedding centerpiece trends at the moment is the “Collection” centerpiece. Uhm, what does that mean exactly? It is literally a “collection” of small floral (and sometimes non-floral) mini arrangements that are grouped together to form a more dramatic centerpiece.

Let me show you a few examples!

What do you think of the “Collection” look?

P.S. What sparked this blog post is seeing some lovely collection centerpieces at the SAG Awards tables!
