Try to capture the wild world into a little glass box. The best thing about terrarium is that is long lasting; this means that you can create or order them months before your wedding and they will still glow on your big day. Moreover, the longer the terrarium stays the greater it will look as it has time to adjust to the new environment. For a greater effect, try to make a different design for each of the centerpieces. You can also give them as favors to your most distinguished guests, when the wedding in over.

Lampshades

Although it can be a little difficult to make lampshade centerpieces for 15 tables, the atmosphere they create is undeniably pleasant, elegant, and romantic. In order to create these fantastic centerpieces you need: vases, custom plates, and custom candles. You also need to choose a shade to match your wedding theme. If you don’t want to spend the time making them, you can always order them as there are plenty retailers that make lampshades.

Mini Hot Air Balloons

Mini hot air balloons can easily be made by hand. All you need to do is to make sure you have all the materials you need and to ask all your friends to come to your house for a lovely “catching up while working” day. If you don’t want to make them yourself, you can always buy them. Either way, mini hot air balloons will inspire your wedding guest to feel free and have fun at your wedding.

Although cages don’t usually make you feel comfortable, with the right decorations, they can become quite romantic and elegant centerpieces for your wedding. Put a bird cage on each of your wedding tables and decorate them with candles or even birds for an even greater effect.

 

Paper Flowers

Paper flowers can be as expressive and romantic as real flowers. You can go with either small bouquets nicely arranged in vases, or with an oversized flower. Either way make sure to choose colors that harmonize with the color scheme of your wedding.

Candles are a classical alternative for flowers. There is no way you can go wrong with candles, especially if your venue has switches with potentiometers that can diminish the lighting. The more candles, the better, but make sure the color stays the same if you want to use different types of candles.

 

Floating Lanterns

Floating lanterns are a lot like candles; the only difference is that they function with batteries. They come in different shapes and colors, and they create a peaceful romantic atmosphere. Put a round vessel with water on each table, and drop 5 or 7 floating lanterns in each of them. You can choose the color of light to match your color scheme.
