How about rose petals and t-lights with vases to put yours and your bridesmaid bouquets in?

Dreams can come true xx

Im having a simular problem. I have been collecting gorgeous vintage tea cups for flowers on the guest tables, but am now stuck as what to use for the centerpiece! Want it to be a mad hatter theme as the venus rather po-e-sh and want to add some fun into the proceedings.

How about two single candle sticks (that match the candelabras) at either end of the top table with a gorgeous long and low in the middle?

Im having a long top table with the same theme. Im collecting coffe jars (douwe egberts that look like jam jars) and wrapping lace around them with polka dot sage green ribbon. Im going to display them in groups of two or three with various heights of wild flowers in.

I think jam jars with tea lights and rose petals would look nice. You can tie ribbon around the jam jars to match your scheme.

Are you having flowers. For my vintage theme I used the arrangement from the ceremony with candles and rose petals

I'm having freestanding letters as top table decorations and really simple flowers, tealighters & petals (as mentioned by others on here) on the other tables.

I think they look great and you can arrange candelabras, petals, flowers etc. around them (my sister is going to do this for me!)
