    We had live butterfly centrepieces on our tables. We had tea light candles too (butterflies need heat to be active) and rose petals scattered.

    We had canoe shaped glass vases filled with sand, and on top of the sand there were shells, and 3 candles in each representing our past, present and future lives.
    Scattered over the tables we had shells and edible stones (Hard to explain, they were like big smarties) that were in the green that our bridesmaid dresses were.

    wow seems like forever ago - 15 years today to be exact! We had flowers and I got little cards which I then wrote thank you notes on and attached them to the flowers. During the speech I got the MC to read out the names of the people who needed to collect the flowers off the table before they went home - and they all had their special thank you note with them. A wedding I went to last year had a gorgeous small photo frame which they used for the seating names for each guest. I used both of them at home to put pix of the kids in - they look great!

    we had glass bottles, with broken/shattered safety glass in them & a calla lilly in it (matching my flowers)... Looked quite effective...

    Probably helped that I used to work for a glass company & could get clean shattered glass

    My sister had a summer wedding in Port Stephens (NSW) and had the most beautiful cake with starfish and shells and sand made from sugar and icing on it. On the tables she had the same sort of theme, starfish and shells and strings of fake pearls all kind of glittery and shiny. It looked fabulous.

    We had these square plate things, with red candles. There were 3 candles of different heights. To be honest, I cant even remember more detail than that.

    Centrepieces were tall candleabras and lillies - our gifts for our guests were a small tube of a native Australian plant - so the room looked amazing with all the greenery!
