Simple Centerpieces

Are you looking for a simple centerpiece that will be both inexpensive and beautiful?  Candles are a great solution!  Candle light can make a reception feel romantic and warm.  Here are a few easy ideas for gorgeous candle centerpieces.


Look for taper candle holders in different shapes and sizes at local thrift and craft stores. Use taper candles in your wedding colors.  Line the center of your long royal tables and head tables.  Gorgeous and easy!


For your tuscan themed wedding, a great idea is to start collecting your wine bottles.  Line the center of your guest tables with wine bottles with taper candles inserted at the top.  Remember to pre-burn the candles for different amounts of time to give the uneven look. 


Another very simple but beautiful idea is to purchase different size candles in the same color and place them sporadically on a mirror.  Not only will the candles let off a beautiful glow, but you will also have the flicker of the light reflecting off the mirror!


Here is a fun idea to add some personality to your wedding!  Purchase a beautiful candle holder that has a stem.  Take a feather boa and wrap around the stem of the candle holder.  You can alternate the height of the candles on different guests tables.  Add a few votives and gemstones around the bottom and you have an inexpensive centerpiece that will reflect your style!


Happy planning!!
