The wedding reception table centerpieces are a key component of the decor in any wedding. After all, every eye is trained on the table centerpiece more than any other decor element in the room. As a result we want our centerpieces to be stunning.
It's natural. The question is how.
Of course we can buy wedding reception centerpiece kits. That is a great way to take the stress out of at least one element of your wedding planning. You just order a couple more kits than you anticipate needing tables and everything is shipped to your door - ready to be arranged on the tables.
But what if you can't find something you like or don't have the budget to buy pre-made kits?
The answer, is to build them yourself.
Of course we have all seen the low, wide bowl filled with water and either floating candles or flowers. That option is tired.
But there is no reason not to take off on the concept. Consider finding a tall slender vase, approximately eighteen inches high, placing it on a mirror (or a piece of fabric that matches the color scheme) and cutting one or two calla lilies so the entire 'flower' and stem is just shorter than the vase. Now surround the vase with lit candles and you have a centerpiece with enough height to have drama yet not so big that it will significantly interfere with sight lines of those at the table.
Or fill a clear vase with slices or wedges of citrus fruits of different varieties in layers and topped with flower petals. Then fill with water and add a floating candle to the top of the vase. It can be stunning and relatively inexpensive.
Of course, many have created memorable centerpieces by arranging their wedding favors in a creative manner.
