Centrepiece help please.

I think I'd keep it simple and just scattered petals (like the pic) and tealights in clear glass Votives? You could have 2/3 inbetween each bowl. Or maybe 1 of the lanterns inbetween each. But small ones maybe. I think birdcages might look a bit too cluttered? I think whatever you have in between the bowls should be smaller so that the bowls stand out as your centrepieces :o)

I think you need to keep it quite simple as the vases are quite decorative and will make quite an impact already.

What about something like these inbetween...

[The red ones obviously, lol]

Tealight holder, assorted red shades

£3

How about something like this

but with your flowers and smaller vases?

I agree with the others, some little tea light candles and love the paper table decorations, nice and simple.

Do I remember you're a little 'alternative' (I mean that nicely...I am too ), you can personalise your own plectrums, if you're into music and scatter them on the table? We're doing this, that was my OHs 'mastermind' idea. Lol!

*Mrs M to be* - I like that idea and do you know i hadn't even thought of scattering petals or anything even though its in that pic haha *DOH*. I thought the bird cages might look too cluttered so think you're right and smaller is better thank you!!

Katede - Love those little jars they're so cute, and really love the confetti especially the music & initials hearts Thank you!

Sharnem - They're lovely, really like floaty candles so might go for something like this and look for small vases Really pretty! Thanks a lot!

Chippet - Yes you're all right i think it's a case of less is more on this one! Definately going smaller. Yes i am "alternative" haha, that is an AMAZING idea!! I hadn't thought of anything like this, love it Thank you!!

Think i'll buy just a couple of the small lanterns and see if the coordinators can advise me on where to put them and get some other little vases & tealights and incorporate these ideas, i'm sure they'll help me as i'm hopeless. Going to look for scattering confetti & personalised plecs haha, thanks so much for your replies you're all brilliant!

The pictures of the cutout confetti I posted were from Etsy and from American sellers so although really cheap probably not worth the postage. But you could make your own super easily with a heart punch and some nice red paper and some old music sheets? ;-)

Ahh I see, would give me an excuse to be creative with something as not making much by myself, little old me could have something to be proud of haha! Will let you know how I get on Thanks again!

I agree with the others that one style of centrepiece is best as introducing a second which would be a different style and shape would upset the visual balance. You can buy heart shaped confetti in bags from ebay or from birthday card shops - I think it's about £2 for a bag.

It never seems to work when I try and add links, but this is the place we're gonna use for the plectrums. Not sure on our design yet though
