  4. Lanterns or candles: Lanterns are an excellent choice for an outdoor or evening wedding and can add a touch of elegance and charm to your wedding centerpieces. They can be filled with candles or small florals to create a romantic ambiance or can be hung above the table. Or create a romantic atmosphere by using candles as your centerpiece. You can use different types of candles, such as votives or pillar candles, in various sizes to create a beautiful display.

For a literary-themed wedding, use stacks of vintage books as a centerpiece and add a vase or candle on top for an elegant touch.

  6. Rustic charm: If you are planning a rustic-themed wedding, consider using natural elements like wood slices, twigs, and burlap to create centerpieces.
