    Hi guys not sure if anyone can help. My centre pieces arrived today and they are horrible they look really cheap and nothing like I expected. I want fish bowls on round mirrors wit cream roses in them and cut glass tea light holders around them. To buy these things separately is quite expensive so I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas where I could look for them or if anyone has any they are getting rid of or alternative cheaper ideas as I don't have long left till my wedding. Anyone with any suggestions please feel free to help out many thanks guys xxx

    I saw a shop on ebay who were doing the fishbowl centre pieces. They were stached 3 high and cost £36 each. H2B was the one who found them so if you want the link let me know hun and I'll get him to find them again. xxx

    I think fishbowls with water in and floating tealights look nice, not that expensive either?

    If you have one of 'The Range' stores near you then that could be worth a look, beyond that I'm with everyone else on the Dunelm & Ebay route.

    ljeh92 - I'd been thinking about doing that myself and I remember seeing somewhere floating tealights in different colours cut to look like flowerheads :)

    It's right what they say
    "The course of true love never runs smoothly"
    But if it had been easy then we wouldn't love each other as
    much as we do right now - 1 week to go :D

    My friend though about having goldfish as a centrepiece and I thought it was a great idea until I imagined a dead goldfish floating about whilst people were trying to eat their meal. lol. xxx
