Manzanita branches are pretty great.

They are one of my favorite branches to work with. So statuesque with just the right ratio of hardy structure to delicate detail. All of the brides I've worked with prefer the natural, chocolatey shade they come in, but I love the bleached versions as well (hopefully I'll get a bride who feels the same way soon so I can post some pics). Below are some photos of them in three different settings (from three different weddings): free-standing pieces for the ceremony, a creative alternative to a guest book as a Wish Tree, and last but surely not least: the centerpiece.
