Floating candles are always nice. Flower petals are nice as well. The floating candles especially look nice with mirrors underneath. Here is a pic of some floating orchids.

Here are just a few suggestions.

If you used pink and white beads you got customize this to yourself. This is what we had on all of our tables.

This is from my cousin's wedding. They had a white candle in it with a glass mirror under neith.

Or something as simple as this. You can pick them up at Ikea and there are all kinds of colors. ;)

I've seen some people use framed pictures of themselves as table decorations and I thought that was a really cute idea!

I like the framed picture idea as well. I don't know your theme, is it just pink or is there more to it? Mine is a beach theme and we are making sandcastles and using them for a center piece, we didn't want flowers either

I have seen vases of candy. Instead of a candy buffet table, the bride put out tall vases filled with candy on each table.

Small potted plants?

My brother's wedding was in the fall ... they had small pumpkins, gourds and scattered fall leaves on the table.

My sister went to a wedding that had a nice bowl with coloured beads on the bottom (sort of like shawna's I guess) and they had goldfish in them, I thought it was a cool idea, but not for me :).

I love how they colored the water pink in the vase of flowers. I thought this was a great idea for a table decoration. :)

For my table centres I'm gettign a a round vase (almost lieka fish bowl but larger and prettier) and inside i'm cutting the top off of a hydrangea and putting the entire thing in water. Then adding some soda water to it and that allows the edges of the water to bead around the pettles. Stickign a couple of flowers int ehre is nice, and it's not like a regular flower arangement, cause I don't want that either. Around the vase I've got some decorative sand, and some small candles. This way it will allow the flower to glow. The whole thing can be done VERY cheaply too!!!!!

Also, floating candles in a wide vase are pretty too. With some pebbles on the bottom to match and maybe changing the colour of the water. Just an idea.

You can change the color of the ribbon to match the pink or keep it the same and use the pink linens on the tables.

I found it online somewhere a few weeks back and was considering using it myself. I would assume Michaels would have a lot of the pieces/props to bring it to life. There is a place around here somewhere called Crafter's Discount, maybe a place like that and they sell it in bulk.

Hope that helps!
