Probably nothing that hasn't been done before, but I'd like your opinions.

Either something like this:

or this:

With a mix of these in the bottom of it

And either filled with water, with a light blue floating candle on top, OR filled with that magic gel water stuff, with reeds or faux wild grass

coming out of the top

I like the idea of the round one with the stones in the bottom. But instead of the grass spiking out of the top I'd go for it swirling around the inside of the globe. Then you could add a flower to match whatever is going to be in your bouquet. I think that'd be lovely

To be completely unhelpful, I think they all sound lovely. I like Ann's swirled reed idea, but I don't know if those are harder to find.

We did something similar to your first idea, with colored glass marbles (flat, like yours) in the bottom of cylinder vases with a floating candle in each. We had three cylinders of varying heights to make up each centerpiece.

That sounds really pretty. I'm probably going to have to buy it all then play with it, because I'm fairly certain I want all these elements, just not sure how I want them put together. I will try that though!

And thank you NovemberGal! (What's your name? )

I like those! They're so fun and different! Just make sure you keep an eye on how tall they get.

My Fiance was playing with the thought of the 1st pic. The bowl looking thing. With the rocks ont he bottom..but putting floating candles in there and draping petals of roses outside and just laying some calalillies here and there next to the bowl...

I like your idea though..May have to bite it...LOL...

Not a problem LOL

My florist is going to be spraypainting beargrass silver for me instead of the natural look, so it'll match my colors! I'm so excited!
