Non-flower centerpieces

So I’m trying to cut down our florist price some. I know there are non-floral centerpiece ideas out there, but I can’t seem to find an idea I truly love (even after searching Pinterest). If any of you have any photos of non-floral centerpieces you’ve seen or did PLEASE share! Our colors are gold,...

Our colors are gold, blush, & navy. The feel I’m going for is classy/elegant with a touch of glam. Smiley smile

thanks for all all of your input!

    I have been looking all over the internet for the terrariums in the first picture (including the websites you gave). Could you tell me where you found those or that picture? Thanks!

    I would check with a florist on costs, because I found my centerpiece florals to be surprisingly inexpensive. I'm using these aqua art deco bottles with agate slices like in the photo, and then adding a silver mercuey glass votive between every two agates. And then my florist is adding silver dollar eucalyptus, thistle, and ranunculus to the bottles. She's only charging me $7.50 per bottle for it. The total costs for my centerpieces with the vases, flowers, candles, and agates will be around $350 for 16 of them.

    Those are so pretty!

    I saw on Pinterest someone used the agate slices as favors too.

    Omg are you me? Those are my colors and I am also aiming for non floral centerpieces!

    Right now I think what we're going to do is go with navy linens (included in our package) and ordering some bulk greenery from Costco that our DOC has agreed to set up. Then for centerpieces we're going to alternate lanterns sorrounded by votives and greenery with floating candles sorrounded by greenery. Like so:

    Hope this helps!

    Omg those are my exact colors!!! Hahaha!

    Im doing terrarium centerpieces so that I only need a few buds on each one to save on flowers. I’m using Sola Wood flowers for all floral!

    Im going for a classy formal with a touch of modern (geometric lines).

    I just saw someone else already suggested terrariums lol I got all mine at hobby lobby, all different shapes including the taller cylindrical ones. Every other week they are 50% off!! So I paid $10-15 each!! Range from 7-11inches tall

    Candles are always a good option! Maybe talk to your florist about affordable subs for flowers and maybe do some small arrangements like below as well. Just go for a pretty candle holder!

    My colors were burgundy gold and blush. I did a small collection of candles with gold votives. But I really like the terrarium idea! They have some terrariums, but lots of candle glassware, inspiration, and are affordable.

    Is this from your wedding? It's so beautiful!
    If it was yours, may I ask where you purchased the tall vases and the candles?

    A girl I went to grade school with used books from her and her husband's library and family photos to decorate their tables, with a few candles here and there. It was a very lovely touch!
