This arrangement is ideal for the head table!

2 stems of dendrobium orchids are placed on a bed of
river rock in this 12 inch high square vase...very exquisite indeed!

This glass cube containing amber sand, seashells, a twig sphere and a single Mokakra Orchid is surrounded by a curly twig collar, giving it a natural, rustic, yet elegant feel.

This tall glass cylinder is filled with typical west coast materials: lichen covered bark, branches, and moss. For colour & style, a stem of gorgeous Mokara orchid is carefully added to the mix. This is a lovely wedding centrepiece which reflects the bridal couple's love of the outdoors.

These cheery gerberas brighten the guest table centre.

This tiny vase is full of colourful blooms. What makes this arrangement stand out is the effect of the battery operated light in the clear gel. This is an simple way to change a tiny design into something very eye catching, especially after dark.

Any flowers in a simple bud vase can accent the wedding decor when a coloured rhinestone vase bracelet brings the wedding colours to the table centre.

The reflective properties of light on gel in a glass container makes this an effective choice for a table centre. Float candles and/ or flowers on the surface for a nice effect, especially as the lights dim in the evening.

Marbles are also good at reflecting the light source, especially under water. A simple arrangement becomes an awesome arrangement. This is very effective when LED battery operated lights are submerged into the water, or when the vase is placed on an LED light base.

These orchids are held in place by the thick gel inside this glass rectangular vase. The 3 perfect roses on the surface top off this display with panache!

Another centrepiece idea is to place a flowering potted plant into a container, glass or otherwise. This can be a cost effective alternative to a more pricey floral arrangement. In this photo a glass cube was lined with coloured mesh before inserting the colourful Kalanchoe plant.

A dozen roses look gorgeous when handtied and standing in a glass cube.

Positioned on a mirror, several individual vases with flowers play dual roles: as centrepiece, and as a guest favour.

Here's another example of an effective grouping of bud vases being used as a table centrepiece.

It is difficult to tell that these Gerberas are not fresh flowers. They look beautiful sitting atop a gel filled vase which has a tiny LED light inside, casting light from below. An alternate idea would be to place this gel filled vase on an LED light base. You can choose the colour of the light being emitted. You may choose a series of rotating colours as well, up to you.

A water filled vase atop an LED light illuminater is very effective. Choose the light colour to match the decor, if you wish. Many flowers are very happy underwater, as you can see here with this orchid.

A tall vase in the centre of a table takes on the look of a fancy lamp when a shade is perched on top. This glass cylinder vase has orchids and swirls of grass. The reflective gel at the bottom looks awesome when bottom lit. This is quite a sophisticated and elegant look.

By changing the colour setting of the LED light base, one can change the gel colour to match the event decor.

These dozen tulips look awesome with swirls of grass seen through the cylinder shaped glass vase.

Simple flowers in a tall glass cylinder make a grand statement. Add an LED light base to uplight the arrangement and the 'WOW' factor increases exponentially.

A small hand tied bouquet in a water sac is a centrepiece which guests can take away with them.

Sisal collars come in many different colours and can be used to enliven a centrepiece bouquet, or even a bridal bouquet.These collars nicely 'finish' a bouquet, especially when used in the event colour theme.

This tiny cube holds 3 very large roses beautifully. Wrapping any glass vase with a coloured ribbon is one way to bring the event colour onto the table tops.

In a small vase a tiny mixed bouquet looks especially elegant when placed on a mirror and surrounded with a few low candles.

The title says it all!

Glass containers can be lined with leaves, if desired, to achieve a more formal look.

Simple carnations in a great container are simply marvelous!

Instead of flowers being the centre of attention, this photo shows them playing a minor role. Only a few blossoms are required to achieve this elegant effect. The candle holders are rental items.

This is a variation on the previous idea. 3 glass candle holders are 3 times as effective as 1. Again, this look is achieved with minimal flowers.

Glass cubes are wrapped with fabric in the colour theme of the event.

One perfect Cymbidium Orchid sits amid swirls of grass in a glass globe, making a striking addition to any guest table.

This full bouquet is perfect for a summer wedding in pinks & yellows.

Topiaries in the centre of the guest tables are real eye candy.
