OK - so here is what my CP will look like but with different color flowers.. I hyjacked the pic from another brides wedding because I think it is so beautiful...
Here is my issue - I am on a tight budget and can't seem to find decently priced IVORY pillar candles....
Do you think that I will get the same ambience w/10 votives and petals on the table w/out the pillars? This is driving me crazy...
TIA girls!
UPDATE - Girls thanks for all your advice - I have decided to ditch the pillar candles and just use 10 votives scattered around the table and around the CP.
Yes, I do and think Votives will be safer than pillars. IMO By the way I love that CP idea!!!

It is a gorgeous CP idea, and I also think the votives will look beatiful too.

I LOVE This CP! Gorgeous! I think votives will be just as pretty. Infact, if you have a bunch of votices in glass holders rather than just the pillars, you'll probably get a much softer glow, and a little sparkle depending on the lighting.
BTW - keep your eye out at AC Moore and Michaels, some times they have pillars on sale for like 3 for a $1!

I think the votives would be fine, but I'd prefer the pillars.
