Poll: Are your centerpieces high or low?

Are you choosing high elaborate centerpieces that your guests can gaze up at? Or would you prefer simpler, shorter centerpieces? Perhaps you are incorporating both into your table decor?

What height will your centerpieces be?

    I thought I would have high as I think they make more of a statement however because we had a smaller celebration, I went with low ones and I'm very happy with how they turned out!

    I like the idea of high - higher than line of sight so guests can still freely chat and see. Not sure if budget will allow for such height though so I'm open and still researching

    I haven't nailed down my exact centre pieces yet bit I plan to go for a low look. I've been told high centre pieces can get in the way of conversation at the table! I'm sure it wouldn't really be an issue, but thats what I based my decision off of!

    Personally for me, if a tall one was in the middle of tables people can’t see each other as well, it’s like a big inhibitor. Medium to low ones can look just as nice and probably much more classy and elegant on how you do it and what your theme is than something that can look overdone and too much

    I love the look of tall centerpieces but am trying to find a way to achieve that look without obstructing views too much.

    I found it looks nicer and it’s easier for guests to have a conversation without something huge in the way.

    Better visibility. Line of sight is important to me as I have several deaf and hard of hearing guests coming.

    We are having a mixture of both. The tall centrepiece will be also say what table # it is and then we are having medium vases and votives over our tables.

    I've got a mix of both. Tables will be alternating in centerpiece height so that we can add some depth to the room!

    We’re going short. Very few of our family members are gifted in the height department so we didn’t want any sight line issues.

    We did low centerpieces. large centerpieces are grand, but I'm not a fan of how they block people's views.

    I prefer low. I don't like that high ones can block people at their table from view. I also feel high ones have a more extravagant feel to them, which is not the vibe I typically go for in a lot of things personally.

    I'm thinking about garlands and medium height vases with candles. Definitely low.

    I prefer lower centrepieces - I'm not a fan of the high ones.

    I have taller vases with kissing balls on top, with a LED tealight in the vase. I may put LED tealights around the bottom. Still deciding on that.
