Floating candle centerpieces

Judy, on June 4, 2018 at 6:43 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 11
Hi, All!

My fiancé and I decided to use 3 cylinder vases with floating candles as centerpieces at the reception.
For those of you who have seen them
used, or are thinking about using them
yourselves, do you use real or fake flowers?
Thanks in advance!

    Hi date twin!!!

    I have a mock up of mine right here!

    I used fake flowers because they were cheaper. Got them on sale at Hobby Lobby!

    I bought fake flowers from Hobby Lobby and did an experiment to make sure they wouldn't lose their color in the water. I left it in for about a week (I forgot about it) and it still held its color! I've been buying their 'stock' on the flowers i want every other week (that's when they're on sale)!

    We are using those vases too! And we are going to have 3 different sizes. We are filling them with orbeez and the top will be a bouquet of fake roses.

    I think there's a Hobby Lobby in Gainesville or Manassas, but Michael's is the same type of store, although I've seen a bunch of people post things they've purchased at Hobby Lobby that I haven't seen at Michael's.

    Really pretty either way. As long as the colors don't bleed your in business. Just don't get the cheap artificials. I work at Wal-Mart and all i can say is the cheaper artificials don't even look real let alone feel real. Lol

    I would use fake flowers since they will be drowned in water you could even use dollar tree flowers
