Planning and executing the perfect wedding can be stressful. Why not let mason jars take the guesswork out of your aesthetic and practical needs! They provide a blank canvas, giving you the freedom to be creative with how you display or fill each jar to make your wedding uniquely yours.
Whether a big or small event, mason jars can do it all!
Here are a few ways you can put mason jars to use on your big day...
Fill mason jars with fresh flowers for centrepieces, or spread jars full of blooms throughout the room. Mix and match different jar sizes and styles for a unique look, or keep it simple with a single jar full of baby's breath.
Regular mouth and gem mouth mason jars are great for upright floral arrangements, while wide mouth jars will give florals more room to spread. Wire bail jars will give an arrangement an extra sweet vintage touch.
