Question
Hi there. I would like to use Arum Lilies and Peacock Feathers in my arrangements for my centrepieces for my wedding. Do you have any ideas how i can incorporate them. The feathers are 30-35 inches long. I dont mind incorporating other materials but my theme is white, emerald and sapphire. Thanks so much.

Answer
Given the length of the feathers, it isn't practicle to use them in a traditional way.  It would be far too cumbersome to talk around and over.  I think I would look for tall (30"+) clear cylindrical containers and have the feathers upright within them.  Then, a more traditional centerpiece can be affixed on top, making the feathers in glass the pedestal upon which they sit.
