Wedding Centerpieces

My wedding colors are black, white & silver. I chose these colors because I want an elegant, classy, and traditional wedding. I want everything at the reception to be white and silver but I am a trendy bride too, so I was thinking of very tall vases as centerpieces the kind that can hold limes, and lemons to add color. Is this still elegant and classy? Help!!!

Re: Wedding Centerpieces

LIITA,
I love the concept of using real fruit...especially, lemons! You are definitely on the right track with those centerpieces. That's going to look so hip, yet classy. Good choice!

Re: Wedding Centerpieces

I saw a picture of that same centerpiece and I thought it was very elegant and classy. On the table was one of those mini circle lights, on top of the light was a tall vase filled with water and lemons, and at the top of the centerpiece was exotic flowers. I believe they sell the little circle lights I was talking about in the vibride store. It is beautiful and a great way to keep the room smelling good. lol

Re: Wedding Centerpieces

Sorry I took so long to reply all my wedding is August 4, 2007. I just started planning, and I'm very happy I found this site. Hopefully I can pull it all together without turning into Bridezilla.
Thanks to everyone who responded to my question!

Re: Wedding Centerpieces

Nothing that will be taken care of by the reception hall( THANK GOD).
But for my bridal shower the centerpieces will be a vase with marbles at the bottom a tropical fish or two with flowers on the top.

Re: Wedding Centerpieces

Girl something cheap and elegant. You can get the marbles,vase,and the flowers from your a store like rags shop or from the dollar store. And fish should be about two for a dollar at your local pet store.

Re: Wedding Centerpieces

My reception site is taking care of the center pieces also. What a load off my mind. As far as the shower goes I have not even begun to think about one,let alone plan it. My date is Aug. 11, 07.

Happiness is only a prayer away!

Re: Wedding Centerpieces

I wrestled for so long about what to do for a centerpiece. I wanted something elegant but not inexpensive. I finally figured out what to do. Walmart had very nice vases for $2.00 I bought tapers and rose vines. I also got ribbon that said With Love. I spiraled the ribbon around the taper and glued the taper to the bottom of the vase. i added marbles and surronded it with the roses. It looks awesome and was simple to do. In all it cost about $5 per centerpiece and I have the 2 demos on my mantle. Several people who come over have asked where I got it from. it was something diffrent from the usual pillar candle and was simple to do. Hey we have to save money somewhere.

Girl I know that's right. On certain things I did jump out the window, but came to my senses quickly.

Re: Wedding Centerpieces

LIITA i had the same idea but since my color scheme is more tropical, i'm using cut oranges and raspberries.
