Teapot Flower Pots

• Place your flower arrangements in teapots and teacups to create elegant centerpieces that reflect the event's theme. Fill the teapots and teacups with soil and insert blossoming floral plants inside, or simply fill the teapots and teacups with water and place cut flowers inside them until the pots or cups appear full. You can buy old teapots at thrift stores or ask to borrow them from friends for the event.
  
  

Candles

• Candles can be used as the main centerpieces or as additions to larger centerpieces. Place tall candles that match the wedding colors in the center of the table as the main centerpiece. Tie a ribbon around each candle to add to its elegance. Alternatively, place small tea light candles around the main centerpieces, be they floral arrangements, larger candles or edible bouquets, to add a soft glow to the table. Arrange tea lights in heart shapes around floral arrangements to further emphasize the wedding sentiment.
  
  

Tower of Tea Cups

• Create a teetering tower of teacups as a whimsical centerpiece for your wedding tea. Using a hot glue gun, glue together several teacups, stacking one on top of another. Glue the teacups so that they sit slightly slanted on top of each other. This will give the teacup tower a teetering appearance that is certain to spark conversation among the guests. To add to the extravagance of the tower, fill the top cup with flowers. To save money, purchase your teacups from thrift stores. The less the teacups match, the more whimsical and charming the tower will be.
  
  

Food-Based Centerpieces

• Let the food be your centerpiece with elegant yet edible arrangements. Create fruit bouquets by placing colorful pieces of tropical fruit on skewers and arranging the skewers in an elegant vase as you would flowers. Create a stunning cupcake tower using a multi-tiered cupcake stand. Decorate the cake stand with ribbons and flowers that match your wedding colors. Create a cookie bouquet by baking flower-shaped sugar cookies and inserting a wooden craft stick into each cookie while it is still warm. Ice the cookies with your wedding colors and arrange them in a vase as you would a floral bouquet.
