Late to the party, but if you want a flower and a candle and you don't want flaming centerpieces (and yes, I've seen it happen), I'd put a single stem inside a tall vase, fill with water, and use a floating candle.

That website has cheaper stuff than that, it just happens to be the appropriate picture.

thank you....so if i fill it with plain water its not going to ruin the flowers

The water can get cloudy if you do it too far in advance, so don't set it up the night before. I'd get a stem or two and try it in advance. Some flowers fare better than others.
