In the middle!!!

Of the wedding tables that is!!
 
So centerpieces drove me crazy for a long time. For a while I wanted something like this...
 
 
Then I saw some gorgeous other ideas! Like these....
 
 
 


 
And I changed my mind about what I wanted every.single.day. Since the main color that we are working with is black a lot of the centerpieces that I found seemed a little too bright. I also didn't want the centerpieces to block people seeing other people at their table so the big tall beautiful centerpieces were out. And after I got a quote from my florist the flower centerpieces are out (I actually considered doing my own flowers for a while after I got that quote).
 
This is what I finally decided on!! We are going to have lanterns. There are going to be candles inside of the lanterns and around the bottoms of the candles in the lanterns we will have alternating pearls and yellow flower petals!!
 
This is the lantern...
 
 
And I will take a picture of it with the things inside when I get home. I LOVE them and we have assembled all of the lanterns that we need so those are taken care of. Setting them up won't be difficult either so that's another plus!!!!
