    IKEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    hire them if they are too costly to buy. there are a few websites.

    check our the famous auction site - there are mirror plates and mirror tiles there. search 'votives' online too - sometimes a gem of a searchword!

    i've seen them as low as £1.50 for the glass bowls - although i can't remember where now!

    I was thinking about doing the bowls and mirrors too. I havent decided yet whether to go flowers or fish bowls, and the main reason for not deciding yet was because i always assumed that the fishbowl/mirror thing would be more expensive? what do you guys think?!

    It does sound like if i really looked I could find some bargains.

    Try ebay. I've got my vases off there, slightly more than I wanted to pay but I figure I won't want 12 lily vases after so i'm going to put them back on after and recoup some funds :) There seems to be alot of people selling second hand on ebay.

    lil miss sunshine got hers from ebay and they were £2.50 with free p&p so have a look on there.

    I'm lucky my venue as candelabras that we can use free of charge.

    Hi Tracey I hope i can help with your problem of fish bowls and mirrors. My friend hires them out at £10 per fish bowl including decor and mirror. Her website is ************* she travel all over so may be worth getting in touch all her details are available on site xxx

    to be honest - go with the candelabras! i hunted high and low to have them at my wedding - they are really expensive to hire so nobody needs to know they were included in the price xxx

    i think you could really utilise it - nd hang some beads off them or something.

    no reason why you can't buy some fancy candles and/or scented taper candles to matche the colour theme you're having.

    then just put them on a coloured plate - that's what i'm doing with my pillar candles.

    oooh - good spotting.

    GT decorations is a wholesale website - sometimes has some hidden gems... and Essential wedding hire has some good prices.
