Tall Floral Table Centerpiece

Wholesale Floral Supply Products





Before making a tall floral table centerpiece, you will need certain products that are usually available only from a wholesale floral supply.

If you plan on Do It Yourself wedding flowers, realize that tall wedding floral arrangements are more time consuming and take longer to set up. Be sure you have plenty of help and someone who can stay to finish up if you have to rush off to an appointment on your wedding day.

Eiffel Tower Vase



An Eiffel Tower Vase is a popular hand-blown vase ranging from 7 sizes. They are available from 12" to 38". Base is approximately 4" - 4 1/2" in diameter. You need to have a tall enough vase that your guests can see one another from across the table. These vases are hand blown - so remember every vase WON'T be an "exact" same as another.

These vases may be a little more "tipsy" if you put too heavy of flower arrangements on the top. (Safety tip: when I use these vases on top of mirrors, I roll a teensy ball of Florist Clay into ball and put one on all four corners of the bottom of the Empire Vase. I then press it firmly onto the mirror. Bingo! Stabilizes the vase against tipping over.)

To put fresh flowers on the Eiffel Tower Vase, I either use a straight handle Belle wedding bouquet holder (wrap the handle in silver reflective mylar or silver ribbon and it won't be so noticeable thru the glass),

or use a Smither-Oasis container called an O'Bowl Adapter.

Regardless of whether I use a wedding bouquet holder or an O'Bowl adapter, I always line the top lip of the vase with a florist clay.I use Cling adhesive. It comes in either white or green and looks a look like modeling clay. This florist clay, however, sticks very tightly to most any surface, including glass. Just helps keep that large arrangement of flowers securely on the top!!



The O'Bowl Adapter needs Oasis Cylinders, often referred to as "cake Oasis".

If you use a flat topped pillar stand, you can use a #5 O'Bowl container that is flat on the bottom. Rim the pillar stand with florist clay and press the O'Bowl container firmly to the top of the stand. This bowl holds #5 OASISĀ® Cylinder as well.

Whether you use an Empire vase or another to create your tall floral table centerpiece, the basic products you need will be the same.

I carry many more wholesale floral supply products in my wedding store including church wedding decorations, tulle, ribbons, balloon products and more when decorating for a wedding receptions.
