Centerpiece Help!?!

Well I have my centerpieces half way done. I have 20 inch vases with river rock on the bottom and curly willow twigs coming out of the vase. This is on top of a silver charger with more river rocks and tea lights. This will be on every other table and the other tables will have a much smaller vase with river rock on a charher and tea lights with possibly a succulent floating on top. I want to add to the centerpieces. I was thinking hydrageas and succulents around the top of the 20 inch vase.
I need some ideas please????????????
My bouquet has lillies, succulents, orchids, and greenery. The bridesmaids are calla lillies.... Any ideas are good ideas :)

    Love the thought of using orchids.

    But they are my favorite.

    I love your idea, and it sounds a lot like I am going to do.

    I'd add the lillies and either calla lillies or orchids to pick up the flowers in your bouquets. Whatever you decide I'm sure will be lovely.

    You have a great idea. I love it.  I read that hydrangea wilt really fast, so if you use them, check that out.  I think that orchids hold up better.  
    Thanks for the great idea.  I am just starting and may consider something similar. 
    Good luck.

    I recently did centerpieces for a reception very similar to what you are talking about. In some of the taller vases my bride used her cala lillies with the curly willow and bear grass grennery.In some of the shorter vases, we used her orchids with just the grennery.  You are already using river rocks, chargers, and candles on all your tables so mixing different flowers on the tables will look great.
