Hiya :) We are having a vintage/shabby chic wedding, I thought I had decided on the centrepieces (teapots filled with flowers) however I am now thinking that I need something to give it a bit of height and would love to buy some cream candelabras to go along side the teapots.... We are however on a tight budget, cheapest I have seen are around £15 each, were going to have ten tables so that soon adds up! Has anyone seen any for a good price anywhere? Or do you think maybe I should wait and try and get some in the January sales? Thanks all xxx

Unfortntly this seems to be the going rate for candelabras, not cheap! Keep an eye on the bay tho as brides tend to sell on after their wedding so you may be able to grab a bargain.
You could even half 5 tables with them and the other 5 with bird cages.....might work out cheaper and will look fab

That's a nice idea to go half/half and I already have one birdcgae so might go with that, thanks :) They are def not cheap, I looked into hiring them as well, £20 a piece just to hire.. eeek!! I always have an eye on the bay ;) most of my wedding things have come from there... Candelabras seem to be very popular though so am not sure how cheap I'll get them, definitely worth keep checking back though! Good idea but were having our reception in a local village hall so resources from them are pretty dire, were even having to hire our own crockery.. which luckily we've managed to get free with our caterers :)
There is a place near you that you can hire from and they start at £5 plus candles
I can put the link on your wall if you want?
Cant wait until I become Mrs K

Thanks lala bunni but I don't need them any more, managed to get some tall pillar candle holders which were going to use instead :) So feel free to make arrangements with StacyT Xx

np jessica glad you got hold of something you are happy with ...
StacyT i will do hun .. i`ll some pics and measurements for you
Have you got a c0untry b@skets near you? They say they're trade only, but anyone can sign up & get a card to get in. They have a brilliant selection of candelabras at decent prices. Would be well worth checking out. I go to the one in Astley near Manchester
