    These candelabras are being provided for us by the lovely Julie at A Sixpence for her Shoe. The flowers are going to be cream and pink roses with purple hydrangea and teh candelabra are going to have pearls instead of crystals.

    Mine will hopefully be something similar to this pic, except the sunflowers will be in an Ikea bowl with glass pebbles. Our sweetheart table decoration will hopefully be a garland similar to the third pic.

    This is what I had wanted, vases filled with baubles! We get married in December so I had wanted something a little Christmassy. I chose hurricane vases but I don't think we can get the ones I wanted now so I am considering other options but I love this idea. Yours look really lovely, did you have lights in them too?

    Hi Mel,

    Thank you. Yes, we had lights in with the baubles and tealights on the mirror tile and sparklies sprinkled over the table and runner.

    Hi LB

    We bought these in Asda - albeit it was about August/September last year so not sure if they are still in stock. xx

    Mine are based on this, will have 3 roses rather than 1, and the grasses swirled around the outside nicely as don't like the arching effect in this one! Will finish the mirror and candles off with scatter crystals too!

    We had cylinder vases with 2 goldfish and coloured pebbles, on each table -


    Btw, the fish were fed during the wedding breakfast, rehoused in a proper tank during the evening and they went to a good home the next day.

    We had jars in various sizes that I spray painted. Then added ribbons and hearts.

    No pics unfortunately as they haven't been made yet, but we are going to have sweetie trees - basically they look like those round topped topiary trees but instead are made from a plant pot, with a pole coming out which has a ball of oasis (that florists use) on the top and then you either wire sweets or put them on cocktail sticks (or use lollies which already have sticks!!) and put them into the oasis ball to make a "tree". We are going to have ribbons on the poles to match our colour scheme (which is claret, bottle green and ivory) and we will then have Ferrero Rocher's as our sweets (nice gold wrappers)!

    Hope that makes sense!!

    I dont have any of our table centres which is a real shame from the TOGs, we had vintage cake stands on the tables with candles around them- kinda like this;

    These are my centre pieces. They sit on mirrors with three tall black tea light stands (in matching shapes to the vases) placed around the vase.

    No flashes sorry as camera is kaputt (rubbish for WP!). We're having a garden theme, so...

    We've got small blue metal watering cans, which I'm going to fill with flowers from a supermarket, in a low dome shape, then my balloony friend is tying some helium filled foil balloons to each watering can to add interest above eye level as the ceiling is quite high.

    Our table is having a plain green pair of secondhand kid's wellies on a stand, filled with flowers instead of a watering can.
