Centre Pieces

Yesterday it was my 4 years with Jason! I can't believe it's been that long but a wonderful 4 years together. We haven't done anything yet but will have dinner on Saturday night. I will write a post about this next time (and and the story of how we met!).

On the wedding front I'm doing lots of planning. We need to plan our engagement party which we have started doing. I'm still figuring out bridesmaid dresses, planning centre pieces, planning our cupcake tower (instead of a cake), trying to decide what type of flowers for the bouquets and working out our invitations. Not sure if I'm going to be able to letterpress them now. 

Here is my centre piece inspiration. As I've mentioned before I think I prefer a cluster of candles on each table instead of flowers.

And among those candles I plan to have a few table scatters of either little crystals....

And maybe a few of these little butterflies too. I don't want heaps of the crystals and butterflies just a few scattered around the candles.

There is still so much to plan so I need to keep on going and make the most of my days off. Plus I need to do plenty of cleaning and organising.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!

P.S I wish Jason and I could have a winter picnic but have to work all weekend again.

    Oh gosh, I'd love to have a cupcake tower! Sure beats cake any day. And I do love your idea of making candles as your centre piece, instead of the usual flowers. Plus, the crystals a butterflies! Lovely touch. I'm getting sooo excited! Oh, will January swing by already? ;) (btw, 24th of January is a day before my birthday! haha a useless fun fact, but thought it was fun nonetheless! hee hee)

  6. Happy 4 year anniversary! Beautiful ideas- my centrepieces were candelabras with only a couple of small flowers in little vases.
