I bought vases at Michaels that were relatively cheap ($4.00 each) then went to Costo the day before the christening and my sister and I made arrangements. We bought the roses which were $14.99 for two dozen. We put a dozen in each vase. The were gorgeous!

We also put a organza ribbon around the vases.

For my first daughter, we did balloon centerpieces.

For our 1st son we made lollipop bouquets. Really cute! The guests seemed to like 'em.

For my 2nd, I got mums from the farmstand and wrapped them w/ tissue paper and a blue bow (ok, my sister wrapped them). They looked beautiful.

Both of my boys were Baptized in October.

Re: What type of centerpieces did everyone have for their christening?

My sister's daughter's christening is this weekend so we're making the centerpieces on thursday when i go to her house. We are getting small glass bowl/vase type things from Michael's, filling them up with blue and green glass rocks and then putting in chocolate lolipops that look like crosses in that we will tie ribbon around. That will be the CP and the favors all in one!

Re: What type of centerpieces did everyone have for their christening?

We got silver-looking floral bowls from Fantasyland and then got the roses from Costco. We put a dozen into each bowl and than that morning got balloons and stuck 3 into the center of each flower arrangement. They were really pretty.
