We’ve talked over and over again about how much we love baby’s breath for weddings. Not only does it create a super chic and airy look, but it’s also super inexpensive.

Baby’s breath can be used in a variety of ways for wedding decor: from centerpieces to aisle markers — this inexpensive filler flower packs a powerful punch at a penny pincher’s price.

You can easily place baby’s breath into simple vessels like Mason Jars, beer bottles, pickle jars, etc — just consider any glass item in your recycling bin! You could do the same with soup cans, too. Remove the label and voila — a centerpiece vessel on the cheap! Fill with some baby’s breath stems and you’ve got yourself a simple and super affordable centerpiece on a shoestring.
