Few things add more romance to the celebration than candle wedding centerpieces. You can find many types of kits of various quality. An example of a great looking piece are the floating candle kits. You can buy these over the Internet as well as from wedding catalogues  Typically a floating candle centerpiece is so named because the candle “floats” on a base of glass stones and/or water creating a real “wow” factor.

In addition to a floral centerpiece, centerpieces for weddings can be made of unusual objects such as seashells, candles and even stones. For example, if you are having a beach wedding, a seashell theme would work very well. If you are having a wedding in a Japanese garden, for example, a wedding centerpiece designed around stones could be ideal. Let your wedding theme guide your choice of what type of wedding centerpiece to go with instead of the other way around.

A tropical fruit wedding table centerpiece is another unique idea. As your primary fruits, you can choose coconuts, pineapples, or whatever strikes your fancy. This can give the proceedings a nice exotic feel.  Fruit is also relatively inexpensive when compared with some of the other choices available.

Do you like sweets? If so, a candy centerpiece certainly might be one of the more unusual decorations. Another nice thing about this type of centerpiece is that you don’t have to worry about what to do with it once the wedding is over. The guests will take care of any leftovers.

Live fish swimming in a bowl as a wedding centerpiece certainly provides a great visual impact. The idea is to stock the bowl with a few species of colorful fish. You would then populate the bottom of each bowl with glass marbles or beads. Not only will it act as a great conversation piece but it will also help to  keep the children occupied at the kids table. The one drawback is that not everyone is comfortable with the idea of utilizing live animals such as fish for an event like this. In addition, there’s the question of what to do with the fish once the wedding ceremony is over.

For a really romantic wedding centerpiece, think about using a heart shaped candle-holder. You place one or two on each table and when the lights are dimmed, they create a dramatic display.  You can also let the guests keep these as a keepsake, once the festivities are over. And, for the do-it-yourselfers, these also are a very simple craft project that you can make at home by yourself. You can also add an aromatic element by using scented candles.

If you are fearless and have some sort of aesthetic sense, you may want to try your hand at creating your own wedding centerpieces. It’s a great way to say quite a bit of money. It also lets you be involved in a more creative way in the planning of your own wedding. If you don’t know where to start, you can find detailed plans on the internet on creating some very striking and beautiful arrangements. The downside, of course, is that it can be a hassle trying to put all the pieces together by yourself.
