5. Champagne Towers
These precarious towers are beautiful and functional. A slightly eccentric take to a Wedding centrepiece, swap out your florals for balanced champagne glasses filled to the brim. What a way to delight and entertain your guests.
6. Tree Stumps
If you are more of a nature loving Bride, this bizarre but cute way to decorate ticks all the boxes. Perfect for decorating a Wedding with a more rustic or boho feel, tree stumps can be used as place mats for flowers or stacked on their own. Sprayed painted or dipped with glitter gives them an even more unique touch.

9. Hanging centrepieces.
Centrepieces don’t have to sit in their traditional space. Hang your flowers, wreaths and decorative items from the ceiling instead for a not so traditional feel. Try monochrome to add an extra modern twist.
