I need some serious help with my centerpieces

I don't have any. I am getting married in 30 days and I need HELP! Please, help me find something for my table. I was going to use candelabras, but after going to the Chateau Briand showcase last night, I feel that they may be lost on the tables (oval tables). Any ideas for me? Please???

If you want to keep the cadelebras, but lengthen it out so it goes with the oval shape, you could put a cluster of 3 votives on either of the candelbra.

Re: I need some serious help with my centerpieces

Love the candelabra idea. If you're concerned about the oval tables, why not put a taper on either side of the candelabra and scatter rose petals down the middle?

Or, put a table runner down the middle - maybe the color of the flowers you're using for your BM's - or the color of their dresses.

Re: I need some serious help with my centerpieces

These are all great ideas. I think I am going to get a 3 arm candelabra with two sticks on each end. I am so lazy, but I will call for rose petals today. Thank you!

Re: I need some serious help with my centerpieces

I like floacting candle idea, if you aant to extend it to fill the table try this...

Walmart has these shallow floating candle holders, a big one, you can put in the center of the table on a mirror, and they have the same one in a smaller size put two of those on each side with mirrors and candles too... theyre heap at wal-mart

good luck!

Re: I need some serious help with my centerpieces

How about something like this?? You get the candles and the rose petals and I think it would definitely work with an oval table! Maybe with less hurricanes....

Re: I need some serious help with my centerpieces

I was able to get the rose petals for $50 from Burtons for the 25 tables! I feel much better now!

Re: I need some serious help with my centerpieces

I love the candelabra you posted. Maybe you could have a smal ring of flowers put around the base to make it stand out a bit, or have rose petals spread in sort of an oval shape all around the base of the candelabra. Or maybe have a florist drape some ivy around the candelabra.
