    my wedding has a very hippie natural feel to do and i was wondering what ya'll thought of my wedding centerpieces. there will be 4 candle holders centered around a vase similar to the one in the picture with a full vase of pink daises (haha, the ones in the photo are fake). the tea candles are green (the color of the wedding and theme) and the jars are mason jars with hemp tied around the top of the jar.

     

    any suggestions or do you think they look fine??

    this is one of the only things i'm still freaking out about with the wedding being less than a month away!!

    I think it's very nice and will go well with your hippie natural theme :-) I will say that I think as long as the center vases are a little more full than they are in the picture, it would be good. Maybe more flowers and less greenery? But either way, I love lots of candlelight, and I definitely think you'll be accomplishing your goal! A hippie natural feeling wedding would look weird with flower overload!

    I might add some rocks to the bottom of the vase, just to add some weight to it!

    I like where you are going with this...I second the idea of rocks in the bottom of the vase. Some nice flat river stones would be beautiful. I might also consider using more hemp around the neck of the mason jar to give it a more finished look, but I love the idea of using hemp. I think raffia would also work really well instead of the hemp...it's still very earthy and the texture is great.

    Did you manage to find a good deal on the mason jars? I am on the hunt myself.

    Yes rock would be a great idea in the vase. It would add some texture and fullness to it on top of the weight.

    You could also put some candles that are a little bit taller in the jars, but that's really up to you and it depends on how they look once they are lit.

    I like the idea of adding river rock.  You could also go with a smaller jar of one of the caning jars that have a diamond pattern.   This reflects and scatters light better and gives a nice glow.

    Something must be wrong with what I'm seeing because all I see is code and when I click on it it says it's not found :-(
