we found these vases and loooooove them! i think however they may be too small, what else can i add to our cp's to make it fill up the table a little bit more. i am going to have the florist do them BTW, i just thought this would save some money to get the vases we want.
What if you had smaller votive candles around the bottom of the vase - ya know spread out just enough - and if your doing that color - they have cute glass pebbles in that color at acmoore..

They are a very pretty vase. I am sure that your florist will be able to come up with some unique ideas to make it seem like more. I would bring one vase to her...

Re: cp help
How big are those? I was actually going to use vases that looked exactly like that (not sure if the sizes are the same) but my florist talked me out of it. She said that they are usually right at eye level so everyone ends up pushing them out of the way or moving them to the floor cause its hard to see across the table. I ended up going with shorter ones that people could see over.
I love vases like that tho.. I wanted those with all roses for centerpeices but am going with something else and adding candles and rose petals.

I saw those vases at my florist and also saw the same ones at Michaels and AC Moore, but there are taller and shorter ones I think. I dont want to discourage you from getting them! I love that idea its what I wanted as well..Just letting you know what she said to me. I was still going to go with them then she told me about this other idea she had and it sounded adorable. I am waiting to get a sample. I am nervous it will look too small too so I am adding the candles and petals to hopefully give it something more.

Re: cp help
sorry wanted to add... take them to your florist and see what they think.. I think those might be smaller than the ones that I saw so it should work out great. Adding candles and petals to yours would make it look really great, and some marbles for the bottom maybe?

I was just going to say this. I love the vase, its awesome...but it will be right at eye level.
Usually you take the vase and you make the tallest flower (usually the middle one) 1 1/2 times the vase.
Know what I mean?
