Centrepieces for rectangular tables... show me yours!

I really like these.. but I haven't been able to find the mirrored vases in that shape

We wound up doing two smaller centerpieces, one at each end of the table. Only the one facing the center of the room had a number on it. Then we scattered some (paper) flowers across the rest of the table.

I have 1 rectangular table just doint two smaller ones as well

@Staci those books are a neat idea! I like them.

This is my inspiration. we plan to recreate this look.

We're doing long garland centerpieces with white flower accents and candles, kind like this.

I'm DIYing my centerpieces, but the basic idea is wine-colored table runner with 3 small vases of flowers (mix of sunflowers, roses, and mini hydrangeas) down the length of the table, alternating with votive candles surrounded by small stones. Unfortunately the picture of the mockup I did is on my real camera, not my phone.

We did the flowers and garlands and candles and all that jazz, I love candles so I wanted as many of them as possible. I would check with your florist about that vase, they'll usually order or find whatever it is you want to meet your vision.

I love garland on long tables. It always looks so elegant! @BreeAnn unfortunately its out of budget for me but its a gorgeous option!

I haven't done a mockup... but I have white tablecloths and will put navy satin table runners on each. Along the runner, there will be a mirror in the middle with a low silk/paper flower centerpiece on it and lots of mercury glass votives and yellow flower petals along the runner. No chargers or placemats because I'm a cheapass. Yellow cloth napkins.

@beautyofdreams It is a bit pricey. But I love the look, so I just made the tables longer to cut down on the amount of them we needed. (Which probably had very little effect on the cost...but I'll pretend.)

This is our inspiration. We are planning on 1 centerpiece per table with frosted votives scattered on the rest of the table. The centerpiece and table number will be in the center. Our tables are shorter (8-12 people) than what's in the inspiration photo. Our color scheme is a bit different also.
