Water Bead Centerpieces

Looking to have waterbeads for our centerpieces with submersible LED lights. I am having a hard time wrapping my head around if I have enough! I know they make tons, for the small amount they start out with. Can someone help with he conversion/give advice from your own experience? I have 5 bottles that say they make 2.2 gallons each (approx) & 12 containers that are 11oz pre hydrated. I am looking to fill 58 vases (each vase is 3 7/16 diameter & 7 5/16 tall) about half to three quarters of the way full. I also have 19 shorter round fishbowl type vases that I thought about using, too. I am looking at having the vases with water beads along with frosted votive holders (I have 71 of those) and about 128ish smaller cylinders with succulents in them. This is going to be about 50 tables (long) worth, so there will be several things on each table to have things evenly spaced. So, can I hear your thoughts on the water beads and the whole centerpiece train of thought? Thank you!!

I apologize if I should have put this in the DIY category. I wasn't sure which one was best!

There won't be any flowers except the succulents. Just the succulents, candles and vases mostly. On some trays/ mirrors. I am horrible at envisioning things.. Lol I will try to set something up and take a pic quick!

This is what I have for the succulents (the one that is empty) and the frosted votive holder's. But now I am second guessing the frosted votives with the clear glass otherwise.

I also have a bunch of clear and green glassware (the green looks clear with the candle in it though) that might be better. Sorry for the overload of pictures and my brain not making any sense! I procrastinated way too long and now I'm way freaking about it!
