Mirror plates for centerpieces

A fiver per plate?!? To me that is a massive waste of money, but then again I am not made of it...

If you dont feel you need them then dont bother, she is just probably trying to get some extra money out of you.

I bought mine from weddingmall.... i'm making all of my own centerpieces. i'm sure I only spent £2-3 per mirror.x

I have some mirrored plates for sale if your interested?

❤️

That seems very expensive! i bought some for £1.50 (ish) each in the range .... does vary in price depending on style - but you could definately buy them cheaper!

Yikes that sounds expensive. I seem to remember seeing them in Home Bargains for a lot less than that to buy! Then you could resell them afterwards too.

£5 HIRE???

for a £5 your damn well sure id be keeping them lol, they are far cheaper on ebay (although price depends on size)

Ditto the above!! They are nice and do give a nice finish but £5 per plate is an obscene amount. Check if you have a Range, B&M or Country Baskets near to you, you can pick them up much cheaperfromthere.Also check out if anyone is selling any locally. I picked up 10 large bevelled ones locally for £25. I then get to sell them on afterwards!

Thanks i thought it was a little steep! The florist's nice and doesn't seem to be a pushy seller and has been very accommodating, but at the end of the day she is a business so would try and offer them i guess. I did look at some shops online but with postage it only saved about 50p per plate; The Range and Wedding Mall seem to much more reasonable though so that could be good! I looked at preloved etc and there weren't any packs near me for pick up, i expect postage outside of a company would be extortionate - thank you RusticBride for the offer but for this reason i couldn't..

I've bookmarked two plate sizes each on the Range and Wedding Mall to have a think about. Thanks for your help!

Another vote for The Range. I managed to get mine from there for under £2 but they currently have some in for £2.69 from memory.

Country baskets sell them as well. Well worth buying to see on again thats what I have done xx

I can also vouch for the range I do agree mirror plates are fab can you not provide your own?

I also got mine from the Range, they are £1.50 (20cm) or £2.49 (25cm). I am going to sell mine after the wedding, I think it's shocking how much money people make out of weddings with "hiring" out things for more then they originally cost. Good luck whatever you do, they are nice on a table, but defo not worth spending a small fortune on. x

Here's the link to the Range:

Have you asked your venue. The hotel we are using are giving us them for free!. £5 sounds a huge amount, sounds like a florist trying to make a quick buck.

Just in case there's any problems with the range, dunelm mill have them reasonably too: http://www.dunelm-mill.com/shop/home-fragrance-round-mirror-candle-plate-287705

Dunelm of course! With the Range i'd be ordering online but Dunelm is near me so i can click and collect. Thanks everyone for all your help. The venue doesn't have them to provide, they supply an easel and cake stand but that's all. I think i will stick with mirror plates but buy them myself, looking into it more that is quite crazy what she's charging. Thanks again!

You can get 4 square ones from Ikea for £6. They're tiles but would work just as well as mirror plates if you don't mind square rather than round.
