Wedding Centerpieces Without Flowers

Organizing a wedding is a very big responsibility. One has to take every tiny factor in consideration, everything starting from the decorations to the wedding favors need to be perfect. Sometimes the workload becomes too much, which is when we compromise on something, like the wedding centerpieces. Everybody obviously wishes to have a unique centerpiece for their wedding, however one does not think about it before the wedding and then ends up with the same floral wedding centerpieces! Floral centerpieces no doubt look beautiful, but they have become way too common. Every wedding, birthday party and parties in general will have a centerpiece made of some popular flower. Besides being a cliché, floral centerpieces are also fragile and do not last long. Whichever flower you choose and whichever way you arrange them, flowers will look dull after just a couple of hours. There are many centerpieces which can replace flowers, these centerpieces are not only beautiful but also last for a long time.

Unique Wedding Centerpieces Without Flowers

Balloons: Balloon centerpieces are very popular. You obviously can not use fragile normal balloons as centerpieces, instead helium balloons are used. One has a chance to make full use of creativity here, you can arrange the balloons the way you want. Like, you can tie tiny baskets filled with chocolates to a balloon and then tie the balloon to sticks. You can even stick balloon strings to a glass vase. Making an arc of balloons is also a unique idea! Choosing the right colored balloons is also important. If it is a beach wedding, choose blue balloon, red and pink which are the hit colors. Always remember to choose balloons of different colors, preferably two colors. Also make sure that your tablecloth complements the balloon color.

Water Centerpieces: If the wedding is in the evening, water centerpieces are the best option for you. You can add colorful candles to the water, you will find specially designed water candles in the market. Besides candles, a uncommon water centerpiece is the fish tank! If you have a buffet system and only big table, this is a perfect idea for you. A small aquarium with colorful fish swimming to and fro is a pretty site.
