You do not have to incorporate flowers in all your wedding décor. In fact, you can add quite a bit of dimension to your wedding décor by utilizing other elements like: candles, fruit, glass, photos and other objects that hold meaning to you as a couple to create the ambiance and look you want.

There are lots of unique ideas out there, the hardest part will be deciding which one you like most!

Non-Floral Centerpiece Idea #1 :: Candles

Candles come in every color and shape and can add a romantic touch to any evening wedding.

What’s better….candle centerpieces are also reusable!

Floating a candle in water is both elegant and practical. The water will not allow the wax to stick to the vase and allows you to reuse them.

Non-Floral Centerpiece Idea #2 :: Fruit

Fruit can also make beautiful wedding décor. You can choose fruit that corresponds to the season of your wedding.

Depending on the complexity of the arrangement, using non-floral centerpieces can be a great way to save money. Just hope your guests don’t get strawberry cravings in the middle of your wedding!

Non-Floral Centerpiece Idea #3 :: Potted Plants

Potted plant centerpieces can double as favors for your guests. If you have a group of potted plants on each table, guests can each take a plant at the end of the night. This helps ease your break down, serves as a usable keepsake for guests and is easy on your budget!

Non-Floral Centerpiece Idea #4 :: Photos

Photo centerpieces are a great way for your guests to start a conversation trying to figure out where each special memory is from. Guests will love the story you tell of your relationship with pictures!

Non-Floral Centerpiece Idea #5 :: Lanterns

Groups of differently sized or shaped lanterns can be placed on each table. Or, lanterns can be the focal point of your centerpiece, surrounded by tealights or bud vases.
After your wedding, you can decorate your house and yard with your wedding lanterns as a great reminder of your special day!

Your centerpieces, just like your wedding, should be uniquely you, so have fun! Let your season and location inspire you!
