Flowerless centerpieces

We put these out ...

We had a single white rose and a single white candle, both of which were included with the venue. I think centerpieces are unattractive most of the time and/or a waste of money. You may notice from this snip that we also didn't care much about table numbers!

We are doing 3 sparkly wine bottles hombre style with fake tea lights and painted little pumpkins/ gourds that will have table #'s on a mirror-plate-thing.

Our colors are purple and silver but this idea:

These are all pretty!

@livelybride I love the simplicity of that! I would love to cost costs for the flower section

@futuremrsdowney those are so pretty! that's a lot of fruit in that glass of champagne..yummy!

FH is making these for us. Totally doesn't go with our theme but horses are my passion and IDGAF

We did a charger plate & riser with birch candles, book paper snowflakes and pinecones...Super flammable but only 1 partially caught fire....ooops.

My inspiration

I would love to have something similar to this for my wedding!

Here's kind of my inspiration

There's still small flowers on the table but you don't necessarily have to do those. The main centerpiece is the lantern.

These are ours

Our main centerpieces will be antique glass oil lamps with old books and lace on a wood table. We will have flowers in teacups though

These

Here's a picture of our mock up with some slight changes.

Google it. Seriously.

I was thinking of doing non-flower centerpieces and I googled just that and I got soo many amazing ideas.

Ours will have chocolate and candles and gold glitter.

I don't have any pictures on my phone but I'll try to post later. We're doing small cakes that will feed each table. They sit on small cake stands.

Originally, we were going to have skull centerpieces. But we couldn't find skulls that were the right size or they looked "cheap". We're having mini black trees (thank you Michael's!) and are going to have mini skulls around the base of each tree. We're also going to have the table numbers hanging from a branch on each tree.

@O&S where did you get those chandelier style candle holders?

Without the tulle bow and with some pillar candles around it for the candle lighting ceremony.

I'm using globes and jars with candles and (possibly) jars with chocolate globe candies. Also seen cute ideas of branches with little paper airplanes dangling form them. Don't care for flowers much, my bouquet is made of paper, so it wouldn't be that weird.
