Okay, so i dont necessarily want "red" votives, my mom thinks it will be too much, but i want votives and i wanted some red on the tables. I was thinking of something like those water crystals, but i cant find ANY pictures and i dont know how much "red' that will really make.
We will have the lights very dimmed so i want the red to pop on the tables. Any ideas??? pictures of inspiration?

I personally do thing red votives would look pretty. they may seem harsh just looking at them, but to put a lighted candle in it it would look gorgeous with a red glow.

they're actually red. and i think there would be enough light coming out the top that it wouldn't look RED you know?

Here's something that I have in my ideas folder - mind you its pink and chocolate but you can switch to the red/black/cream or white

I tried the water crystals and the red is very pink. I am still thinking about doing the clear and adding red floralytes, I tried that with a white light instead of a red and it looked great.
