If you’re giving away your centerpieces, how are you doing it?

I've heard lots of different fun ways of giving away centerpieces at your wedding reception, and I'm just curious what other Offbeat Brides have come up with.

I think we want to keep it super simple… I don't want to make people do a quiz, or a dance contest, or whatever. I think we might just have our MC announce at the end of the dinner, that whoever's birthday is next at the table gets to take the centerpiece home.

I'm curious what everyone else is doing! -Andrea

Ah, the sticky question of who gets centerpieces, and how do they get them! We know that some couples don't want guests taking centerpieces (one reader had arranged to donate all her centerpieces to a local hospice), which can be challenging because in some regions guests assume that centerpieces are for the taking. Other folks totally organize games or contests for guests to play to decide who gets to take centerpieces, making them function almost as large favors.

For those of you who DO want guests to take centerpieces home, how are you doing it? Or are you just letting folks snag 'em?
