Antique Vintage Silk
A look at what is currently available on eBay
wedding centerpiece idea : brass candelabras. Too much?
I will have 16 tables at my reception.
My theme is French vintage. I am renting 8 large ornate brass candelabras with hanging crystals for half the tables and was planning on green topiaries for the other 8.
Do you think to use the candelabras on all 16 tables will be overkill? Our venue is a private venue full of antiques from France, ornate mirrors and tall windows that look out to lush gardens. Very fancy pretty vintage looking place. I have gold chavari chairs and gold demask linens over ivory.
So, will 16 candelabras be too much or really go with the vintage theme?
( I am not a huge fan of floral due to allergies, and am scared of silks)
Help from the brides and decorators out there please.
The candelabras are so tall, you can see fine to talk to people. They are like 24" tall...
actually I think they might be more like 32" tall. You can see fine with them in front of you.
I agree with your first Idea, and doing them on only half of the tables, and having a nice topiary on the toher half.
That sounds awesome, and I wish I thought of it for my wedding!
