Table centerpiece ideas for my wedding reception?
Posted by admin | Under Wedding Centerpiece Ideas Sunday Aug 29, 2010I am interested in floating candles with rose petals…and I also like the real tall vases with flowers and maybe some kind of floating candles around them? Kinda on a budget so I don’t want to go overboard…any nice ideas?
What I think would look really cool is to get a big tall vase, put a red rose in it (totally INSIDE the vase), hold it down with pretty rocks, fill the vase with water (so the rose is totally submerged in the water) and on the top of the water put some floating candles.
The rose will still "breathe" while underwater, so it’ll look really cool with shiny little air bubbles. The floating candles will just tie it all together
Good luck and congrats!

You can get great tall glass vases from Target or Walmart for really low prices and fill the with flower petals and flowers – they don’t have to be expesive exotic flowers. Also, when you add some clear marbles or a hint of color to the water in the vase it can look really good for a really low price. Get a vase and experiment with different looks. Good luck!

"Kinda on a budget"? I hope you are really clear about how much you are spending. For the floating candles, what will they float in? How much will that cost? How much of a dent will that make in the budget?

Here are some sites of different floating candles, what you can do is getting an idea of what you want to do and then go to target, walmart, micheals, or ebay even and get the stuff to make them yourself, cheaper and you enjoy them more knowing you did it yourself. You can even order some of the candles of these sites and just buy the glasses elsewhere. Good luck, I am doing floating candles for mine. They are so beautiful when lit up!
