How many more of those centerpieces do you need???

I think between 4 and 6 just to cover our behinds.  We probably wont need as many as 6 but you never know.. stranger things have happened.  I am unsure of how many she has on her list.. last I heard it was 8 couples.  I would rather have extra then not enough. 

I agree, it is better to have a few more, than not enough.  I've seen those for between $8 and $12 each ... if you got a deal on the other ones, it might not be so bad to spend a little extra to get the same centerpiece for all tables. 

 In my opinion, I'd want them to be the same, so that everything is "uniform" and symmetrical throughout the reception hall. 

Good luck, whatever you decide to do!

The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness.

Making the decision to have a child-it's momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.

The mother's heart is the child's schoolroom.

To understand a mother's love, bear your own children.

Mother is the name for God on the lips& in the hearts of little children.

A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials, heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine, desert us when troubles thicken around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.

Mrs. M and loving it!!!

I completely agree with you with wanting everything symmetrical. I thought it would be nice to have something a little bigger on the family table then give them to our parents.  My parents are both remarried so I would definitely need more then 2.. lol!  Could you please send me the links to the sites that have the original centerpeices?.  I would like to see if I could get some.

www.bellabonbonniera.ca  - contact Marie, she'll do what she can to save you money. You might pay full price, but not taxes (...cash talks .. lol did for me) or some such similar deal ... she's really good that way.

Ok.. i have an update on my cneterpeices.. I went to Benix and company and they were as usual having a sale.  I bought 3 hurricane candle centerpices complete with Glass hurricane holder, candle, colored rocks for only 7.99each.  They are awesome.. I will have to set them up and take some pictures to show you ladies.  I am thinking about adding some roses around the bottom of them just to keep in the theme of the wedding.  I am soo excited about them.I also picked up some crystal candle holders for the head table for 9.00 for 2.
