Help with Centrepieces

It's nice to want to do something different, but it can be stressful the day of making sure it gets done. I'd just do the same thing for every table. Yours can be different by having a wide vase on the table to put your bouquet in.

Height has to be considered you either have to be low enough to look over or tall enough to look under (tall can be tipped over so make sure it's sturdy)

I LOVE this idea!! Maybe the sweetheart table, parents table and wedding party table could have a little something extra thanks!

I'm trying to put together a vision board before jumping on board but it's so hard not to get overly excited! I'll probably end up doing the same centrepieces or very similar

I haven't thought about HomeSense but they always have gorgeous things there - I should go look! Thanks for the tip

Thank God for Pinterest! I like the idea of using different candleholders. Your wedding decor/vibe sounds beautiful!

Its up to you. you can totally do two different styles theres no right or wrong here! you can do parents tables a different style to change it up!

As long as the two types are very similar it would be fine - otherwise since there are only going to be 5-6 tables I would either stick with one type or all different.

As for decor and whatnot - I would just say to not make any BIG buys until you know that's the way you want to go. What if you end up liking a bunch of chalkboard signs but your centrepieces have glass? Then the glass/window pane signs would look better!

I think as long as there is some commonality between them you can have a little variety.
We picked up 3 small premade vases at HomeSense last night that have white roses and eucalyptus. For the other tables I'll make sure there are some roses and eucalyptus and maybe add a few other white flowers to the ones we bought to tie them all together.
Your examples are really similar to what we're planning on doing!

We are doing flowers as well btw but they will all be the same per table including the vases

For decor start looking on Pinterest. I found it was helpful to choose my venue first. There was a lot of brown /wood so I thought greenery and white flowers and gold accents would go great with brown, and it’s a summer wedding so I got lots of inspiration from Pinterest using those colours. You can even look up “wedding colours” on Pinterest and will get tons of general ideas. See what style and colours you are leaning toward from there.


As for centrepieces, most weddings I’ve been to had the same centrepieces at each table. Ours will be too. But because our theme is slightly bohemian/vintage, im using different candleholders at each table. There will be 3 small tea light candles per table but the candle holders will all be glass and slightly different to go with the mismatch -boho vibe

Thank you and if your interested in getting the vendor information, pm to get the contact located in Mississauga.

View quoted message I will be making all of mine the same. I did have second thoughts after I bought all my vases. Once I picked them I had to make .myself stop looking at centerpieces. I still love the ones I picked out.

View quoted message We’ll probably end up doing both renting and DIY! Your centrepieces look really nice! I love their simplicity yet very elegant!

View quoted message Thanks! That’s what we were planning on doing but first I wanted to figure out if we want all of our centrepieces to be identical or not

Rayanne has good points to get your centerpieces at a better price from marketplace, FB, kijiji and other sites.

DIY projects are great to put together with your wedding party to have them part of the fun.

Renting is another way of looking to have centerpieces which are less expensive and not storing after the wedding.

The route of my choice was renting for 9 tables and very simple to start with and look elegant. The one thing that made it nice was putting coloured waterpearls with immersable LED lights to bright up the evening when dark. Artificial white floral ball made the final touch perfect and to the modern style.

An idea of what may be nice for guests to see around this concept.

Check marketplace and kijiji there are lots of these style vases on the wedding section of them. You can get them super cheap from brides trying to get rid of theirs. You may also get other ideas of things you want already DIY by other brides. You can also see about renting some. If you go to a local wedding show you can ask about their pricing for the day.
