find some globe shaped glass vases that you could float candles in and then have a florist create wreathes of flowers to go around the base of the vase. Use whatever color you decide for your bridesmaid dresses. You don't mention what time of year you are getting married, but you may want to use colors that are significant for the time of year. For example, if you are getting married in December, some beautiful holly wreathes would look spectular with white candles floating in the water. Or for an autumn wedding you could use yellows, oranges, russet or other rich autumnal colors. Use the time of the year to dictate your color palette.
Have fun and I'm sure your day will be special.

My friend is having a fall wedding and to save on some money she is thinking of using tall round vases as the center peices. In them she is going to fill half way up wtih water then pour in fresh real craneberries and a couple of floating candles. The candle go in first and the cranberries float around them. It looks really beautiful and elegant. She choose champaign too as her bridesmaid dress color with burgandy accents. If you really want flowers the cheapest place you can go would be to like a nursery. A lot of nurseries have flower shops inside of them. good luck!

An accent color like a deep red or a even black would be really classy. I think the bridesmaids dresses in champagne will give you a lot of accent color options. Have you looked on www.theknot.com yet? They have some beautiful centerpiece ideas.

Depends on the setting... more formal you could have flowers. I like the colors you chose. You could go with a champaign/ivory/white theme. I think it would look really elegant.

Congratulations! My advice to you is don't worry so much about the wedding details. Go to a good florist and let them help you choose the centerpieces. Don't stress over your decision -- in the scheme of things, it's really quite trivial.

CONGRATS! Its so exciting, I just got married and it was wonderful.
I really think you should find and accent color for your bride's maids...maybe a bright color...like teal or a blue. That may look nice with champaign.
Then you could use your accent color for you center peices, maybe even your flowers if you havent choosen those yet.
Good Luck!

Go to yahoo searches, click images and type in wedding flowers. I tried this to get some ideas and came up with a lot of great pics.
Good luck and congrats!

Your florist or wedding coordinator at the reception venue should be able to help you with this.
Your colors sound gorgeous. You could keep it simple with fresh white roses and other ivory/champagne colored flowers on mirrored glass or hurricane lanterns with candles and surround them with flowers...just a suggestion...
As a secondary color for bridesmaids dresses, I like chocolate brown with champagne...here's a link to give you an example:

Sit down with your brides maids and brainstorm! That's what they're there for!! Maybe you can find something at Michael's Craft Store if you're looking to make them yourself!
