It totally depends on the bride and the venue. A little more information would be helpful to give suggestions

It all depends on the couple. We had a golf related wedding so it centered around that.

For my wedding we had daisies in small vases on the tables, some streamers, and balloons. We were on a very tight budget, so fancy floral arrangements and such were not affordable. The daisies were from a field (free) and we borrowed vases from our church (free). Streamers and balloons were cheap. We also had a garden arch with lights on it over our wedding cake. The arch then went to live in my parents' garden.

Go to Pinterest. Anything that you would ever need for planning a wedding is there, trust me. Makes me want to have a wedding again, just to do some of the cool stuff on there!

Depends on the couple, the region, the budget, the venue, the season, etc etc etc. Fresh flowers are gorgeous but sometimes not in the budget. I just got married a year ago and had someone help me. A wedding is usually a reflection of the bride & groom's style (or bride's style depending on the couple ).

You'll need to give more details but the previous poster hit the nail on the head with the pinterest suggestion! Amazing ideas on there

Pinterest is the place to go, how did we ever get married without it?
We were on a tight budget so we pulled grapevines from a farm we had, made centerpieces from that and wildflowers we picked. They were beautiful, but hard work.

We had small 'sprigs' of natives picked from the venue in vases (provided by venue) on top of mirrored bases scattered with tealights (I think it was 3 tealights per base). The florals were very simple, but the effect of the tealights with the mirrored base added just enough.

For our ceremony we bought 5 x $5 lanterns from Ikea and strung them from the beams over the altar using ribbon that co-ordinated with our colour theme.

I planned, hosted, catered,decorated, did florals for, and paid for, my SIL's wedding a couple of years ago. Not sure what your venue/theme is but I ordered flowers online from a wholesaler (ABACO) I ordered a box of daisies and had them delivered 4 days before the wedding, the night before and morning of, I cut them all and placed them in small fishbowl style vases that had colored marbles in them (marbles and glass bowls from dollar store) and votive holders.The morning of, I also purchased 4 dozen roses (2red 2white) at the grocery store for like $10.00 a dozen, to mix in with the daisy bouquets and other vases (my own) that were placed in random places (cake table, serving tables etc.) I also bought a bunch of "million stars" (prettier and fuller than baby's breath)

The whole box of daisies was A LOT of flowers, they also sell roses, lilies etc, if you are crafty and have the time and storage space it can be the way to go.

I'm an event coordinator at a small cheap place and I've seen a lot of different decorations and the pp is right it all depends on the bride the budget and the venue. One tip a lot of people forget is less is more. Don't throw anything and everything that's close to eachother on the color wheel down and call it a day. My other advice is a runner down the middle of the table in a complimenting color is always nice and breaks up the monotony of white on white on white. Tomorow I have a picnic wedding complete with red and white checked table clothes and sunflowers in mason jars VERY cute and inexpencive. Everyone is different take your cue from the bride.
