Fab Find #16

Okay - I doubt I need to explain why this made the Fab Find list - it's amazing! It is actually part of the Sandals Carribean Resorts Preston Bailey Wedding Package and you can find more photos of it on their site. It is a special local tree votive cups, crystals and orchids hung from the branches.

I actually first found the photo over at Ethereal Decor where they describe it as:

this tree is a special native tree found in the Carribean which is hung with Swarovski fine crystal (they are not round balls, but octagons which are narrow from the side and reflect more light), orchids and pot shaped glass votive cups. These fine Swarovski crystal octagons reflect more light and sparkle than any other crystal due to the finest precision cutting known to man.

This is an idea that could quite easily be adapted to any wedding and theme using different colors, flowers, etc. You could do this outdoors on a tree in the wedding area, or if your wedding is indoors, it could be done using large potted branches as well. For a winter wedding - combine votive holders, crystals and fake Snowflakes. If your wedding is outdoors during the summer, a large tree could act as a canopy with crystals, votive pots and flowers hanging from the lower branches.
