Unique Table Centerpiece Ideas by Brides

Centerpiece: Photos of the Bride & Groom

We are placing photos of ourselves through the years on a small stand on each table. The photos have been copied and are being put back to back. This will give all of our guests something to look at and laugh about during dinner.

Centerpiece: Wishing Well

Put pens, paper, and a wishing well on the tables for centerpieces. Guests can put advice, best wishes, little notes, etc... I will decorate the wells to match the theme, and colors of my wedding. ~ Submitted By Cynthia, Houston, TX

 

Centerpiece: Wine Bottle

We are getting married at a winery in Napa Valley in September. Our centerpieces will be wine bottles made into "lamps." We filled them with candle oil and added a wick. There will also be bunches of grapes around the base of the wine bottles. ~ Submitted by Suzanne, St. Helena, CA

 

Centerpiece: Wrought Iron Birdcages

They are green and my Mother and I are spray painting them gold (antique effect) then placing votive candles inside with sprays of pale gold leaves at the base. The reason behind our choice was the need for a centerpiece that would could be reused. My reception will be on my parents property and since the tents we rented would be at our disposal until that Monday, we decided to have brunch for all of our out-of-town guests and family the day after the wedding. Since flowers would wilt, we came up with the idea of the BIRDCAGE! ~ Submitted by Kristin, Mendham, NJ

 

Centerpiece: Wedding Cake

Rather than have a wedding cake and then a sheet cake for the guests, we are using the cake as the centerpiece. Each table will have a cake on a stand with a few flowers on top and tea candles around it. The table for the bride and groom will have a two tiered cake instead of one with our custom centerpiece.

We found the price for 20 round cakes was similar to sheet cakes and a huge wedding cake and they make an interesting centerpiece. (P.S. the cake is chocolate with chocolate frosting.) ~ Submitted by Mamie, Rochester, NY

 

Centerpiece: Bubbles and Birdseed Bags

We bought baskets on sale at a local department store, lined them with material [using a glue gun]. Then we filled them with the bubbles and birdseed bags. Those helping with the wedding will get to take a basket home with them. ~ Submitted by Jennifer, Midland TX

 

Centerpiece: Hurricane Lamps with a Twist

We're using 16" hurricane globes with glass Christmas balls inside it. You can match the colors very easily to your event and the balls are very inexpensive to use. ~ Submitted by Leigh, Tampa, FL

 

Centerpiece: Ice Sculptures

I am putting baby ice sculptures on each table. It doesn't cost as much as you would think! ~ Submitted by Kelly, South Carolina
