Pink Unscented

Wedding Table centrepieces

Wedding Table Centrepieces

A simple candle centrepiece can add that special finishing touch to a table setting. Enhance your wedding dÃ©cor by selecting colours and fragrances to suit your wedding theme. Whatever candles you choose they are sure to add that special glow and ambience to your reception venue.

Centrepieces do not need to be extravagant to make a statement, but there are a few tips that can make your choice much easier.

1/ Choose a centrepiece that will not take up too much room on the table. Sounds obvious, but you donâ€™t want to take up too much room on the table.

2/ Donâ€™t pick a height that will block your guestâ€™s view of each other or hinder conversation. Also consider the size of the venue when deciding on the size of your table centres. If the ceilings of the venue are quite low a very high table centre will make it feel claustrophobic. Choose either something that is very high if the room has high ceilings or low if not.

3/ If you are using scented candles stick to one fragrance or make sure fragrances are compatible. You donâ€™t want to overwhelm your guests.

4/ Soy candles are the better choice because they do not produce smoke or soot. Unscented may be the better option if you are celebrating in a more intimate setting.

5/ Floating candles in a bowl is another option for a low centrepiece. The water is the bowl can be either coloured to match or contrast the candle colour.

6/ If you are using container candles, cluster similar designs in different sizes together for an interesting affect.Â

7/ Surround your glassware with a garland of flowers or a beaded sprayÂ

8/ If you choose a cluster of candles, the wax colour can be shades of the same eg.

Pale pink, pink, dark pink, red etcÂ

9/ Choose a setting that is in proportion to the size of the table and the number of guests. A very high centrepiece is suited to venues such as Rupertswood Mansion, which has a very high ceiling.

Â 11/ Spiral with different sizes of the same jar.

12/ Use a mirror to reflect the colour and light from the candle jars.

13/ If you are using a cluster, use them as a table centre and then give them to your guests as their wedding favour.

14/ One of the most important issues to consider is the dÃ©cor of your reception venue. Make sure you take the time to consider your options.

White is easy to match, but most venues use bold colours such as royal blue or dark red for carpets and drapes.

Take the time to visit the venue and think through your colour scheme.

15/ White candles are your obvious choice with the flowers matching your theme, but if you want to be daring group your guests according to a flower type.

Select the shade and flower for each table.

Suggestion: Have your candles either unscented or choose a single fragrance even if you are changing the colours. This is easy with soy because the wax can be blended to any number of shades.

Arrange your guests seating by a flower selection.

Eg. 1/ Frangipani, 2/ Rose, 3/Lavender, 4/ Tulip. You get the idea, and keep them in shades of the same colour. Your florist can help you with which flowers are in season.

16/ Bridal Table Decorations:

A longer centrepiece with two smaller either side work well. Donâ€™t make them too high; the guests would like to be able to see the bride and groom.

17 / There are a number of advantages to choosing soy candles for your wedding.

Â No smoke or soot.

Containers can be customised.

Wax colour can be matched to your wedding theme.

Fragrances (in most cases) can be matched to your wedding flowers.

Â Long lasting, so even the smallest candles will see the night through.

They are environmentally friendly with the wax being biodegradable.
