What is everyone doing for their centre pieces?

We arnt particularly fussed with having flowers in the middle. An idea we do have is to have sweets in the middle in martini glasses. But then we are thinking that it could look empty once the sweets have been eaten. xxx

A little silver fish :)

i decided not to have centre pieces the bad bride that i am :p original i was gonna have chocolate fondue sets in the middle with a chocolate dish, various exotic fruits and marshmallows for dipping. think most tables end up bare by the end of the night or filled with random drinks anyways lol xxx

Ooh i love this. Wish i was creative. Where you getting the mirror tiles from? xxx

Vickyx

Hehe glad you all like them! :) I'm going to (try) to arrange them myself lol.
Stacey the bowls are calla lily bowls which you can buy in bulk on the net.
Im getting the stones from somewhere on the internet as they're basically fish tank stones just turquoise and the mirror plates can be searched on the internet too :)

As for the little silver fish lol! Someone will be getting those the night before :)

we are having all the tables scattered with rose petals with 4 little champagne bottled bubbles for the kids on each guest table and in the middle we are having a small bunch of roses and some other flowers with a blue ribbon (blue and white is our colour scheme) on all the guest tables and the top table has a bigger bunch with a candle in the middle.
