I love this CP and I'm trying to recreate it.

This is the prototype of the one that I made, please tell me what you think. Be honest, I can take it!!

I'm not sure if the mirror is too small, but I found it for a great price. I think the larger mirror is too much $$. And to go w/out a mirror would cause it to lose some of its beauty.

TIA!!

I agree with the girls...more rose petals and you are good to go! Beautiful Cindy!!

I think some more roses in the big candle holder and the larger mirror, so you can put the petals on the mirror too. But otherwise, you did a great job!

i think you did a great job. who will put the centerpieces together for you the day of the wedding?

We're going to put them together beforehand, and then bring them to the RH the week of the wedding. Then whoever is putting them on the tables will just sprinkle some rose petals around it.

I think the prototype is fabulous, but the mirror does look a little small. I don't know what size or how much you paid, but Home Depot sells them with and without the beveled edge. I think they come in a box of 6 or 8.

I really like your CP, but what I like about the first picutre better than the 2nd picture is how Vase curves at the bottom. I saw these at Linen & Things, I think they look very similar to the original picture.

Yea, we figure it'll hold up better setting it up and then with people taking them home it'll be easier to carry.

Re: Come see my CP and tell me what you think, please!!

I am using the first pic you posted as my inspiration also. We will be re-creating this CP at the reception as well; however, we will not be using the mirror. We found them to be too expensive..so to balance them out, we will add more rose pedals on the table.

I think the mirror you used looks a bit too small. I would try a larger one if you are set on using them.
