Table Centerpieces

shoppingirlem

Girls, I need help.  My wedding is Oct. 26th this year, but I am really stuck.  I don't know what to put on the tables for centerpieces.  My colors are pink and red.  I know I'm not really going with all of the "Fall" type decorations.  But, I love a rustic look.  I was thinking I would put cranberries in little clear vases with candles in them, but what should I do for flowers?  Should I do flowers at all, or just candles??  I would like to put flowers on the tables, but I don't know what kind or what to put them in.  Any ideas?

round or square tables? Do you have it in the budget for flowers?

Round tables....  I think it will be extremely tight but depending on how much the flowers cost it may be doable...

You could consider making centerpieces of tissue-paper flowers (in red & pink) and filling the vases up halfway with cranberries.  These are extremely easy (I did it) and you just gather sticks/twigs for the stems to attach them to.  Vases from the Dollar Tree (heck, I'll sell you mine cheaper after August), and then fill up the vases with cranberries to give it that fall look.  Here's a sample pic:

If you want it to be romantic - you could do 2 tall hurricanes, 2 medium hurricanes and than 4 votives - all of which the dollar store has. Get some pillars and than pile up rose petals around.
Petal Garden I think has affordable prices on fake petals, you are able to order samples of colors.

I think this idea is pretty but simple and shouldnt cost too much.
