Candles add elegance to any table centerpiece. Once you've picked your wedding theme, create wedding candle centerpieces to reflect your theme. Here are some centerpiece design ideas to get you started.

Novelty Candles

Check around at various stores and on the Internet. You are bound to find novelty candles to suit your wedding theme. Use one large novelty candle or group several small ones together in the center of the table.

Small Taper Candles

Taper candles are always an elegant touch to any wedding centerpiece. Place small taper candles into small glass candle holders. Tie a ribbon bow around each candle holder in your wedding colors.

Brandy Sniffers

Buy inexpensive brandy sniffers and place a scented votive candle inside. Add streaming ribbons to the stem to decorate.

Tea Lights

Find different size champagne glasses and place tealights in each glass. Group three glasses together on the table in varying heights to create a lovely centerpiece. You could also use colored glasses as well.

Canning Jars

Fill clear canning jars with potpourri, glass beads, sea shells, colored rocks, colored sand, or whatever you can find that would reflect your wedding theme. Look for candle holders that would be wide enough to fit over the top of the jar mouth. Place a candle in the holder. You could use this idea with any container that has some depth to it.

Floating Candles

This is one of the easiest type of centerpieces to create. Just find a fairly wide, but shallow bowl (either clear or colored). You can just fill this with water (clear or colored) and add floating candles or you could fill 1/3 of the bottom with colored sand, glass beads, sea shells, etc. then add the water and the floating candles.

Recently for friend's wedding, we purchased low, round glass vases as Walmart, tied 2 small ribbons around the neck, filled the bottom with glitter, water & put one large gerber flower in each - they were very inexpensive & looked lovely!
