    How many did you end up getting? If you already did?

    It also depends on your lighting. Our venue's lighting is fairly amber instead of a white light so we were able to get away with having less on the table.

    Yup, that's exactly what we did - also didn't want them in vases as it would overpower the candles. There was no need for them to be in water at that point. We dried them afterwards too and they turned out beautifully!

    I think just a few clusters of candles will do perfectly. You don't want to go over board on the table and make it feel cluttered

    Are the bouquets down flat facing out? If so im guessing you didn't keep them in water.
    At my sisters wedding they were upright in a vase at her head table and it blocked our faces for some photos. So I don't want to have them upright.

    Thanks!! I'd assume so too. We added all of our bouquets too (that's where you see some floral versus just the greenery which is what all the tables had).

    I believe we had 3 of each size across our head table plus gold votives. Also 6 people but I don't remember the size of the table. Pillar candles for head table 2

    I agree with Malyssa-too many can affect the lighting for pictures

    If you are wanting to do similar to the photo (having multiple in a cluster) I think 4 clusters could work. one on each end, and one on either side of the couple
