  Hi Leigha, 

  
  

  Congratulations!

  
  

  I'm having a destination wedding and my colors are blue and white. I'm using those little water beads and created a few small centerpieces for the table but I have lots of packs left over in almost all colors before I decided on blue and white and a destination wedding.  I found them on this site http://discountwaterbeads.com but I'd like to get rid of what I have. I have the blue, white and clear water beads if you're interested. They sell them for $2.50 per pack but you can have all that I have for $1.50 per pack if you want.

  Hope you want them because I don't know what else to do with them.
  
  Ashley

  Lighthouses?  I like lanterns.  If you could find antique lanterns, that could look nice with something a little different on each table.  If you want a more modern look, I like these (link). You could get small wooden dinghies (obviously not real ones, decorative ones), and put candles around them.  I think flowers in them would look nice, but you said you didn't want flowers.  www.beachweddingdresses.biz/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/nautical-wedding-themes-3.jpg" target="_blank">Model sailboats?

  I had little wooden boats, sand, shells, fishing nets.

  
  

  
  

  
  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  
  

  What differentiates an average host and a great host is anticipating unexpressed needs and wants of their guests.  Just because the want/need is not expressed, doesn't mean it wouldn't be appreciated.

  Thanks girls for all the ideas.  I actually stumbled upon some kids sand pails when I was on EBAY browsing.  Thinking about using those for the table with some toys, little beach balls and maybe some shells.  I think I might use the lighthouses for the head table.  Beautiful pics you girls posted.  Once I get a mock made up...sometime...I'll try and post it for feedback.  Thanks again for the help.  It gets the creative juices flowing!!!

  I had plastic pails to line my aisle and then I re-used them for CP on our high top tables.

  When I was looking at venues, I came across this one venue that had pictures on their website of a party, and the centerpieces were nautical themed (boats). I think it would look really pretty with some candles, and minus the balloons. This is the website... http://www.ilvillaggio.com/photogallery.html Just go to the gallery and click on banquets.
