My Centerpiece

Here is my centerpiece. The flowers will be different though to match our colors--once I choose them. FMIL is doing them all--she's great!

i am thinking of doing either floating candles next to it or floating flowers with petals under it.

Re: My Centerpiece

Did you buy them yet??? I saw these at Big Lots here in California of $10 each! You could probably order them online. Let me know if you need help.

Re: My Centerpiece

We actually did get them but at Amazing Savings for 10.99 each. They are decorated with Christmas Flowers but we'll take those off and re create.

Thanks so much for thinking of me though!

Re: My Centerpiece

JMO, but I feel that they will be lost on the tables in such a large and beautiful place. I think you should do something bigger, bolder and with more color.

Re: My Centerpiece

I can't tell how tall they are, and If you are having tables for ten people, these are going to look too small, as they are. My suggestion would be to put a
large mirror under them and put small voltive candles around them, some rose petals on the outside rim of them mirror and loosely scattered.

Re: My Centerpiece

Or you could just place a pillar or taper candle on each side and have a sash in the colors that match your bridesmaid under the candles and the centerpiece.

Re: My Centerpiece

we thought about a mirror and possible other candles but the pillar is a nice idea too.

We are going to do a test run and see what looks best because i was concerned about the size too.

thanks for the input ladies--i'll try all the ideas and post the final product!
