    i think it needs something else. maybe some silk rose petals?

    looks very nice though!
    What matters most is how well you walk through the fire

    i was thinking the same then i was not sure if petals or sonething sparkly!!

    The tables are not huge think they sit 8 and the wedding co-ordinator said to keep centrepieces quite small due to the cutlery and napkins .

  • I think it needs a little something else, they are a bit plain for me...But maybe thats the look you want if you know what I mean .

    i know what you mean. I feel it needs a little something but just cant put my finger on it, i saw some nice stuff for the tables which was a bit like small lumps of wax but silver? just like confetti but not the flat stuff was more 3d

    Table crystals may look nice as they will pick up the light from the candles.

    Good job!

  • Your table centre pieces look very classy...well done! I'm tempted to copy you!! They look especially pretty all lit up on the second photo. I would use table crystals too, although I would probably go for the plain/clear ones. Just personal preference though, and I'm sure it would also look lovely if you matched them to your colour sheme. Can I be nosey and ask what colours you are having?
  • Agree with the others. Would look fab with the crystals.
    If I had known then what I know now . . .
