    I am making birdcage centre pieces surrounded by a ring of flowers which tie in with my bouquet (the flowers in my pics are just to see how long they lasted in oasis, and not the flowers i will be having for the day) have a peek in my albums, pics are in there if you are interested xxx :)

    We are having silver candelabras which are provided by the venue, then I'm getting purple and clear tea light holders around them. Didn't want flowers and wanted to keep the tables clear. One tip I had off a wedding planner friend, check the size of your tables first!! Remember you have to get 8/10 or even 12 people with a plate and side plate plus 3 glasses wine, water, toast!! Plus butter dish, salt and pepper, name cards, favours, napkins, cameras etc etc!! You don't want your tables to look too cluttered! Good luck and gave fun looking around off the perfect centrepiece. Xx

    Antique book stacks and on top and around 50s vintage kitsch deer pottery and toadstools. And here and there a bottle/vase/container filled with one/two/many tissue paper pom pom(s).

    the venue included silver candleabras (cant spell today!) and were supplying purple candles and at night it was wee votive holders with scented candles but im fearing its going to look boring so im on the lookout. cant have fishbowls cos sister had that so im on the bay and looking up various things just now. im mad though cos i got all the stuff albeit in a sale but it means my mum has 30 holders and about 60 candles stored for me!!!

    that sounds nice fairy-cakes id like something like that, i wanted the tall white branches for walking down the aisle too.....

    back to the drawing board methinks lol xxx

    na we originally wanted them things (im really have no clue how to spell it lol) but we wernt allowed candles! what about adding them pear or diamond chain thingys that you drape over them? or google image search that word and there's bound to be something there... i love the idea of candles but h2b doesnt like them fake ones.

    we went to the florist yesterday for a quote and was over £200 for them branches so went to the wholesalers and got 2 tables worth for £6. guna do a mock up :0) .. yea i love that look, were on the hunt for a white carpet too and trying to work out how to hold the branches in the arch postion but rekn were only be able have that where we actually stand in the ceremony x

    i dont think they look that bad and are quite effective its just h2b that has no imagination sometimes lol, why dont you mock one up and add the pictures to here then you can get more people's thoughts and might just need a little tweek here and there and you and your mum may love it again x

    nope i think they were just under £20 each! They're so beautiful i think i'd give them away as gifts after the wedding and mybe keep one myself :-)

    Louait1011 they're on ebay! hopefully this link will work LINK REMOVED PLEASE READ THE RULES THREAD

    They also do swarovski crystal bouquets too which i like because I dont want a full flower bouquet myself. I want a wire mesh one with flowers threaded through it or similar.

    This is the shop on ebay with everything else they sell LINK REMOVED PLEASE READ THE RULES THREAD


    Hope you find something you like! x

    My main centerpieces are Disney Princesses in Ceramic (my theme) and around them depending on table other characters (smaller and not ceramic) or object significant in the Disney movie, like for my table which is Beauty and the Beast I will have a glass red rose in a glass jar bell.
