We recently did this for a bridal shower, but it would be pretty if you made it smaller dining tables, or the same size if for the gift table, etc.
Take a plastic flower pot, probably 6-8 inches diameter. Insert some florists foam in the bottom to help hold things in place. Buy 3 white candles, tapers, and cut to different sizes. We got these beautiful square tapers from Walmart. They looked really pretty. Arrange the 3 candles in the pot. Pour some clear marbles around to help hold the candles upright, and to hide the foam. Take tulle, lots of it, and tie it around the pot with ribbon, then pouf it up all around the pot over the marbles, and around the sides, hiding the pot. You can add silk flowers if desired. Hope this helps.
