We think that this is a brilliant record to have set. In recent times Zumba has become a new trend with classes starting up across the country. This kind of work-out is in high demand with millions of people taking part everyday, wether its at individual or group classes or even at home on a games console. There are many ways to access the benefits of a Zumba fitness.

In light of its popularity 6,500 people in Mexico City have chosen to break a world record by performing the world’s biggest Zumba class.

This is the first record set for the largest zumba class, but I am sure there will be more people at the ready to beat the record.

There are several ways to dress up your tables at a wedding reception. One item that we have found to be most popular for weddings is candelabras. Here are our top 5 ways to make them look fabulous.

1- Mirrored Table Plates  

These mirrors are ideal for adding extra sparkle and the illusion of height, just pop them under the candelabra and the job is done. They can be bought in a range of shapes and sizes to meet your needs and are a simple way to dress up your centre piece.

 

 

 

 

 

 2- Garlands

Garlands can be bought in a variety of shapes lengths and colours. Popular ones for us have been the flower garlands and crystal garlands, these are great for wrapping around the base and stem of candelabras or even round the arms at the top. With such a wide range of garlands to be were sure you’ll find something to look perfect at your venue.

 

 

3- Candles / Tealights

Candles and Tealights are something that we believe are an essential part of any wedding piece with a candelabra. Not only do the finish the decoration but they can provide a low, warm and cosy effect. We are of course aware that not all venues will allow for lit flames due to fire safety laws but there are ways around this. Battery powered lights are available to use for candelabras and are designed to give the same effect of a lit flame without the obvious dangers. We think this is a perfect plan.

 

 

 

 

4- Flowers

Flowers are always a main component of displays at weddings and centre pieces are no different. Flowers can be presented like garlands around the stem of candelabras or round the arms. Previously brides have asked if it is possible to place flowers around or in the candle holders, our answer “yes” we believe anything is possible.

 

 

 

 

5- Scatter Crystals

Scatter crystals are ideal for surrounding the centre piece, they give a finishing effect and reflect and glow from the candlelight. These can also be placed aroung the candle holders depending on what king of candelabra you have.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Below is an example of one of our customers and how they dressed their candelabra, we think it looks beautiful and is perfect for inspiration.
