===FLASH mock-up centrepiece!===

Ooo i like those. How is the venue room so dark? will it be that dark during the summer months?

Yeah its a massive hall, were not having a wedding breakfast and not getting married till 4pm then having a 'summer salad' buffet at 6.30pm, its mainly used for very large parties so has bar etc, just very dark after eating!

ETA.room isnt as dark as in photos, i had option of flash or no flas on camera and neither looked as it does!lol

Well, it wont get dark till about 11ish...... something I kept in mind when deciding whether to have candles or not..... i had them for the evening tables but the curtains were also closed.

Well they keep lights on till people are finished then turn them off, its about 50ft x 40ft and 20ft high and only has 2 weenie window so theres no natural light................

Very pretty i like them x

thank you!x

Very pretty xx

Oh thats good then, they'll look really effective

Really pretty!!! They'll look lovely in your venue!

Well done they look gorgeous!

I love them, it's simple but effective!

What light have you used in the gel?

hi josie!

i used a floralyte in each one

there pretty easy to find if you google/yahoo

hthx

thanx sherrie! your wisdom on petals also means it will look much better with real petals, the fabric ones arnt that nice are they?lol

oh, and thanx for the millions of questions you answerd about centrepieces!lol?

They look fab and will be really effective in a dark room.

Well Done!

Thanks Naomi.

I must be really dumb, but how do you turn the lights on and off once it is in the gel?

You have to turn them on before you put them in but i think they last for about 30 odd hours, sherrie would proberbly be the one to ask, i dont know exactly how long but definatly long enough to put them on in the morning of your wedding?

Just looked it up and its 36-48 hrsx

I love them - i am having the gel and the lights in my vases too!

they look really gorgeous xx

thank you!

yeah i love those lights, i think they look great for evening receptions!

Oh they're fab! Hmm, you've given me some inspiration - we're a December wedding so it will be dark when we eat, and we're not allowed candles in the venue. Something like this could work really well!

Yeah we wanted candles but they wont let us either! its soooooo annyoing but i think it worked out for the better in then end, maybe 115 drunk people and 57 candles may not have been a good idea and in real life i think these look better then normal candles!

Oooo I do like them. A nice alternative to candles.

thanx!?
