Etched-Glass Vase Centerpiece

Share a message with wedding guests by etching letters onto glass vases to spell words. Try L-O-V-E, shown here, or use the bride and groom's initials for a personal touch. Align scrapbooking letters across the bottles, then mark off a rectangle around each letter using masking tape. Etch around each letter following the directions on the etching cream. Complete the eye-catching look by filling the vases with brightly colored flowers.

Glamorous Beaded Centerpiece

Make dining tables sparkle with pretty beads from crafts stores, bead shops, and flea markets. Beads come in all shapes, sizes, and colors, which makes matching any wedding style a cinch.

Sheet Music Centerpiece

Bring love songs to a wedding reception by way of centerpieces. Cut sheet music to wrap around a candle, and hold it in place with ribbon and decorative upholstery tacks. For a buffet-style reception, play the songs on the sheet music to signal the guests it's their turn to go through the line.

Nature-Inspired Centerpiece

Tiny fallen tree branches make a perfect background for birds cut from patterned paper. If you use this centerpiece for an outdoor wedding reception the birds will revolve in a gentle breeze.

Sparkling Candlelight Centerpiece

Surround candles with faceted acrylic gems to make dining tables glisten. Arrange the gems on a clear glass tray, place white candles in clear glass candleholders, and light the candles to illuminate the colorful surfaces.

Personalized Photo Centerpiece

The conversation will be flowing as wedding guests admire photos of the bride and groom tucked inside a clear vase or candleholder. Arrange photos evenly on decorative paper. Use double-sided tape to adhere the arrangement to a small cylinder, then nestle it inside a larger glass vessel. Add flowers or a candle to the center to finish the centerpiece.

Wedding Chapel Centerpiece

Tabletop churches give dining tables a traditional flair. Use gold trimmings to create an elegant look.

Favor Tree Centerpiece

Treat guests to tasty snack mixes displayed on an elegant tabletop tree. Paint and trim cardboard cones and tie them with pretty cording. Fill pastry bags, used for cake decorating, with snacks, tie with a wire twist, and place in the cones. Hang the goodies from painted branches.
