Centerpieces

We`re not sure of which arrangement we`re going with ... it will either be a mix dominated with Sunflowers, or 3 dozen roses. Either way, it will be a raised centerpiece, on those clear tubes filled with water and some flowers or filler dropped into it. Just so you know, the tubes are rented, but the arrangements lift off the top for the 'lucky' guests to take home. To determine the winner, we`ll figure on using some game with the dj, who will inform the guests to only take the arrangement.

I`m doing floating flower blooms (don`t know what kind of flowers yet) in a low glass bowl -- with a few tapered candles at varied heights.

Centerpieces

We are getting married at Vineyard Caterers and have decided to go with the whole 'Wine Country' theme. We are getting raised centerpieces with mixed berries/autumn-colored roses (yellow, iced-tea, light orange, black magic), green fillers, Euycalyptus (SP?). Grape vines will lead up to the top of the centerpeice. At the bottom, we are going to have a mini-wreath with real bunches of grapes. The cake will be decorated the same way.

Are you doing this through a florist or yourself? It sounds like a great idea. Exactly what I am looking for.

Centerpieces

I am doing tall centerpieces. I am going to have a tall glass piece with a vine inside and water and the centerpiece attached to the top. small votives on the tables and rose petals on the bottom of the glass vase.

Centerpieces - Suggestions Wanted

I love the look of tall centerpieces but we will have oblong tables. I think they might look funny. Any suggestions?

Hi, No they won't. I have seen them on oblong tables and they look nice. I think personally it's all about the flowers you choose to put in the centerpiece. Just imagine your guest walking into the room and seeing the tall centerpieces, the first thing out of there mouths will be 'How beautiful!!' and that's what I am aiming long. I have worked at a country club for many years and believe me they wouldn't look funny.

Centerpieces - Suggestions Wanted* Julybride02

Were the high centerpieces used on the oblong tables round or more free formed? What do you think about balancing the look with smaller arrangements or candle arrangements at each end of the table? Have you seen anything like that? Thanks for your input

Centerpieces - Suggestions Wanted* Julybride02

Hi, I've catered so many weddings, it's unbelievable. There are on more oblong round tables. Smaller arrangements are nice and probably less costly. I suggest maybe in the center of the table a round mirror (doesn't need to be mirror mirror but something similiar to a mirror) a little bigger than the centerpiece and small votives. I would put on a table of 6 or more ppl 5 small votives, scattered on the table with the rose petals on the table. What do you think? Another way would be use different size candles but if the tables are oblong then you really would look great. Tell me what you think?
