More wedding table centerpiece ideas….
- Cool bowls that you and your honey made beforehand at a pottery and paint place put pencils and blank pieces of paper in the bowls so your guests can write you little words of advice.
- Your favorite love poems handwritten and framed. Again, you can then assign place cards based on poets, not numbers, like the E.E. Cummings table.
- Miniature bouquets made out of lollipops. Duct tape a bundle of lollipops together and put them in little vases.
- Wedding cakes! Instead of one big wedding cake at the reception, have your baker create a unique cake for each table.
- Champagne buckets filled with flowers or simply as a flowerpot with one big flower growing from it.
- Gift boxes! Get three or four gift boxes of different sizes, wrap them in paper that reflects your wedding theme and/or colors and put them in the middle of the table with a beautiful bow. Cheap and unique!
- Empty wine bottles with candles in them or candle oil and a wick. You can put clusters of grapes around them.
- Teacups with votive candles in them. Put several in the middle of each table. You can find really neat and inexpensive teacups at antique or thrift stores (you may also have relatives that you can borrow from). Keep them for your home or give them away.
- Potpourri in bowls or baskets.
- Two plastic champagne glasses hot glued together so they cross (laying down) with four clear glass marbles in each glass. The marbles will give the effect of bubbles coming out of the glasses. You can tie helium balloons to the glasses for height.
- Bonsai trees.
- Pumpkins (for an Autumn wedding) with hearts carved into them and lit candles inside.
- Pretty baskets of Easter eggs died the colors of your wedding. Or, use plastic eggs and fill them with Hershey Kisses.
- Bride and groom cake toppers! You can always find neat bride and groom cake toppers at thrift and antique stores, even dollar stores. Get a different one for each table and sprinkle something around them (like glitter or Kisses).
- Seashells. You can fill a fish bowl with lots of little shells or use big conch shells, perfect for beach weddings or if you are honeymooning on a beach.
- Your bridesmaid’s bouquets. No added expense!
- Milk pails with dried flowers inside.
- Table runners in your color scheme.
- Brandy snuffers filled half way with water and a floating candle inside. Add food coloring to the water to compliment your color scheme.
- Pillar candles on top of mirrors.
- Gingerbread houses! For an extra special touch, have your new last name on the house. For example, “The Smith Home.”
- Single taper or pillar candle in your theme color or in white can be very effective. Fake gems can be glued on to candles for additional sparkle.
- I also own a couple of these cupcake trees, (here is another really cool looking cupcake tree). I believe Wilton makes some that hold anywhere from 8 to 23 cupcakes or treats, they also come in various colors including white. I figure I could place votive or wedding favors on this tree and it would look cute as a centerpiece, you could also skip out on a wedding cake and serve cupcakes instead.
