High or Low centerpieces

Right now I have high centerpieces, but I really like low ones too, the only problem is that I have oval tables and smaller centerpieces may take up more room. What do the ladies of LIW think:?

I will have high.... the room we are having the reception in is way too big for low ones IMO...

I am thinking here and with all of the weddings I have been to in my lifetime, I have NEVER had a problem with high floral arrangements interfering with my ability to communicate effectively with the other guests seated at my table. Moving my head one inch to the side is not what I would consider an inconvenience. Just a thought.

I have, and I've been to about 20 weddings in the past 4 years....most had high CPs and most made it hard to talk across the table. I didn't really care b/c I'm usually dancing. I've definitely seen them done where they don't interfere...it completely depends on the setup, I think.

We have oval tables and are getting low cps. We told the florist about the tables, and he is making them oval to fit with the table.

I am doing both. I saw it once and it looks amazing. Ut gives you that stought elegance while not being overpowering. AND!!!!!! it makes everytable feel different AND it is cheaper

Does anyone have pictures of a room with both high and low centerpieces? I think that I like this idea- but I am having a hard time envisioning it.

I am doing low only becasue I hate how the high ones get in people's way. I want my guests to be able to talk freely...

Oh yeah and they are less expensive, I am trying to cut costs where I can......

I went with low ones too. I feel that the high ones get in people's way. I don't want my guests placing the center pieces on the floor because they can't see the person sitting across the table. That is JMO.

Re: High or Low centerpieces

I personally love high flowers but I think that is depends on a couple of things. The shape of the tables as you said, the size of the room and the ceiling height. If the ceilings are high and it is a large room definitely do high and do low if it is a small room with low ceilings.
