Need pics of cp's that have fruit in the base to bring to the florist...

I have an appointment to go to a neighborhood florist and I've deceided that I want cp's that have strawberries in water in the pedestals but I need some ideas for flowers on top. I know I want roses but he wants a pic of what Im really looking for. Any pics for suggestions would be great. Thanks

i am not sure that strawberries in water would hold up for 4-5 hours like oranges, lemons, limes, grapfruits or even apples or pears would since they have such soft exteriors.

My friend had these at her wedding and they were beautiful through the whole thing. I do know they are expensive though. Those are definetly gonna be the base but I need different ideas for the the flowers on top. I saw the oranges and lemons at the WOTY and they were beautiful too. Strawberries are not only my favorite but the deep red will go with the wine colored dresses I want and my bouquets are going to be wine.

I did cranberries in the water and it came out great. They never got soggy I also put floating candles in the water and the sprinkled rose petals aroung the base of the glass.
