What are your wedding reception centerpieces?
May 16, 2010 by Bay Area Bridal
When is your wedding, and what centerpieces are you having/do you want?
We have ours picked out – 10 candles in different sizes around an Eiffel tower filled with burgundy and white orchids, and our wedding is July 19, 2009. I would love to know what you are using! =) Thanks!





Oh lord, I wish I knew…
I’m terrible at this sort of thing.
We’re getting married on 6-13-09 – the idea that I had was to do cream colored tablecloths, with cream colored orchids, in chocolate brown square planters. Our colors are cream, brown, and green (leaves).
Another idea I had was to do a green dish filled with brown river rocks, with a gardenia blossom floating in water.
i’m also using eiffel tower 26in vases. These are the centerpieces we are doing

We are doing candles around the vase with rose petals scattered around the table.
I wanted to put the vase on top of a mirror like this

but i’m not sure if i’m doing that yet.
Wow yours sounds great! I was thinking about a short clear square vase with different colored pink roses, colored gems to match the wedding colors (and water). On top of a mirror with tea light candles(2 or 4) and a few more gems.
March 14th- about 9 inch tall round vases, filled with water, with clear and lilac pebbles in the bottom (our colors are white and lilac and our flowers are roses), with a lilac rose floating candle on top, and the pebbles spread around the vase bottom. We’re also having votive candle holders on each end of the table with personalized white and lilac m&ms in them.
I canceled my wedding & eloped instead but my plan was mostly orchids & other tropicals. The centerpieces that my florist was putting together were bombay orchids (fuchsia) with orange dahlias, lots of greenery, and gladiolus.
I’m still deciding between these …

Winter wedding here with a snowflake/snow theme, tables are long rectangles. Ours are silver wire sleighs filled with red/white roses and asiatic lilies, this sits on a silver gossamer runner in the center of the table with votive candles and rose petals going out from either end of the sleigh to the end of the tables. Dishes are square white charger with Black square dinner plate on top and red napkins with a favor of a silver glittered snowflake tree ornament placed on the napkin. Wedding12/5/09
Mine was a very simple eiffel tower vase with three roses and bear’s grass. Petals and candles on the table. Very simple but elegant.

Ours will be like this, but with yellow and white flowers on the branches:
