Unique Wedding Centerpieces
Decorating for a wedding is one of the most exciting and overwhelming
experiences any bride will endure; it's important to manage a budget
while getting the perfect look that you will remember for the rest of
your life. One of the most prominent decorations you'll be choosing for
your reception is the centerpieces. Wedding centerpieces can be as
extravagant or as minimal as you'd like, but they can cost hundreds of
dollars each if you're not careful. If you're looking for centerpiece
ideas that are unique and won't break the bank, here are a few ideas to
start with:
Vintage Arrangements

- If you're going for a vintage look you have plenty of centerpiece options. Tarnished metals and reclaimed woods are great materials for centerpieces. You can go with a silver pitcher or vase filled with pink roses, or a small wooden crate filled with gerbera daisies. Intricately designed candle sticks, picture frames and bird cages can add an extra vintage feel.
Suspended Centerpiece

- One of the most beautiful and unique decoration ideas is a suspended centerpiece. These centerpieces can be a few long vertical strands of flowers, prisms or lights that give off a chandelier feel, or for a long table, you can arrange suspended flowers for the length of the table.
Edible Decorations

- Edible centerpieces are a great idea, since they can replace the need for both floral arrangements and a wedding cake. Instead of having one large dessert table at your wedding, why not have your desserts arranged on the table? You can use an assortment of dishes and platters to serve chocolates, candies and cupcakes. If you'd like a more decorative look, opt for floral cupcakes to be arranged in a bouquet as the main attraction.
Candle Combinations

- For a romantic or even gothic touch candles are a great centerpiece. You can collect them in vases, bowls, and stands for an elegant and classic feel or stick with a cleaner more modern look by lining medium sized white candles in a neat line from end to end of the tables. You can mix and match different colors, fragrances, and sizes to add some visual appeal.
Organic Centerpieces

- Organic centerpieces are great for all kinds of weddings; big, small, elegant or casual. For country-style weddings, a large bundle of straw and wheat is a great option. For a more elegant feel, apothecaries or vases of herbs or interesting greenery add a classic touch. You can even give out the vases and decorative displays as wedding party gifts, saving you even more money!
