Love all the ideas ladies! Here is mine. Trying to keep it simple. I am shipping these to the caterer who will set it up for me. I wanted a candle but can't since it is on a yacht and real flowers were too expensive so I knew I was using silk petals and had to figure out what else to add to that besides candles and flowers. I like the silk flower in the water....maybe I can add something like that also. I don't want to buy or ship vases though. I wonder if there are any bar glasses that would work that the caterer may already have.

I'm glad you liked it.

I love the blumebox idea. I just started thinking about what else I wanted to do for centerpieces. I already have clear glass starfish shaped tealight candle holders and small tealight candle holders also clear glass. The floral centerpieces the resort offers are pretty standard and big. I'm going to see if I can just get some flowers to put in a vase like this. I can't bring down anymore glass stuff as our carryon is full and we have to carry on our sand ceremony set. Cardboard would be great!

Has anyone ordered table runners? We will have 1-2 long rectagular tables with white table cloths. I think with only having the clear glass candle holders (at this point) I need to add some color to the tables.

I was thinking about adding a blue table runner, but that might end up being a lot of fabric to lug down there, so I think I will just do accent 1'x1' blue squares for under the candles and flowers. Trying to keep it simple with hurricane candle holder and some shells, sand and flower petals. I can't see how I can get all this stuff down there.

Those were all awesome! Since we are having a 3 hour cocktail party, with over 40 guests, I have to go small since I am not sure how many tables we will have. Thanks for all the great ideas to work from!

This is my table set up for Jamaica and then my centerpiece for AHR... adding seashells, crystals and flowers scattered around vase. Will have sand and seashells surrounding candle inside of vase instead of rose petals....

These are for the Welcome Dinner. I don not think I will be having any centerpieces for the reception since I don't want to lug all this stuff on a boat (cruise wedding). I was inspired by Tami (FoxyTV--- thanks)

I think this is the one we are going with. I like the height.
