In need of ideas for Fall Center Pieces

[alli816]

Hi ladies,

I'm not sure if this is the right place or if someone already has a thread but we're having a Fall Themed wedding and I need some ideas for the center pieces. I would like to use small pumpkins, gourds, candles etc. and maybe some kind of mirrors for the tables and tea lights so if you have any ideas how to put this all together or pictures please post away.....Thank you in advance.

I'm having a fall wedding too! I'm using branches as centerpieces...

They have lots at bloomsandbranches.com with some ideas. I'm going to put them in an inexpensive painted pot with styrofoam and plaster of paris to anchor them. You can glue fall foliage to a few limbs or string crystals. There's a lot you can do. Also, be sure to go to Hobby Lobby or Old Time Pottery...or any craft store...right now! They have TONS of fall and Christmas items on clearance. I got large fall wreaths for $5! I also got faux foliage, acorns, pinecones, and some gold, brown, and copper Christmas ornaments. I'm going to fill glass jars with an assortment. I've had the best time shopping for everything. It's so fun to plan a fall wedding b/c the colors are amazing! Good luck!

Maybe you can have something with Manzanita branches. They look very romantic with maybe voltives hanging from them

We were originally going to get married around Thanksgiving so I had been keeping my eyes open. I love the carved out pumpkins with flowers in them, I also love using cornucopias.

You can always use more flowers than vegetables, *chuckle* They just have a nice look imo.

Well I just brainstormed with my friend and I think we came up with a way that I can use sunflowers as the centerpieces....well we're going to plant them both in our gardens this year but if the ones we plant arent alive for my wedding for us to use I'm going to ask the florist for about 15 extra sunflowers so we can use the head of it for our centerpiece. What my friend came up with was using about a square size of see through material possibly in gold or brown or wine color to use as the base and then take about 4 sunflower green leaves lay down in a circle to hold the head of the sunflower and then put the head of the sunflower down....then she wants to use it's like rafia but she gets it from Germany and spread that around and then possibly put like some pearls or something to dress it up a little more....I think its so unique and awesome....so hopefully we can do it...:)
