Low, so the table can talk
A low centrepiece sits on the cloth, below the line of guests' eyes, so the eight people at a round table see each other and not a wall of stems. That is the whole case for it. At a wedding dinner the speeches happen from the top table, but the conversation happens across the guest tables, and a short arrangement keeps it open. If you want height in the room, the tall centerpieces lift their flowers above the guests on a stand instead.
What centerpiece flowers cost
Each low centrepiece is KSh 2,500, and that covers the flowers, the arranging, placing them and clearing them. Our dressed round tables seat 8, so 100 guests sit at 13 tables, and 13 centrepieces come to KSh 32,500. Ten tables are KSh 25,000; twenty, KSh 50,000. Transport is the one extra, by distance, and a 50% deposit holds the date.
For a long banquet table, plan several down the middle with space between them, so every stretch of guests has flowers in front of them. Send the table length and we suggest the number.
Fresh or artificial table flowers?
Fresh flowers smell, move and catch light in a way that fabric does not, and they are what this page sells. They are also living things. Shades, sizes and shapes vary a little from one batch to the next, and if a flower you want is not available on your date, we propose an equivalent first. If you need flowers that look the same at midnight as at noon, or you are dressing forty tables on a tight budget, our faux flower centrepieces are the other route.
Keeping fresh flowers fresh on the day
Where the table stands matters. The Old Farmer's Almanac advises keeping cut flowers out of direct sun, away from heat and hot or cold drafts, and away from fruit bowls, because ripe fruit gives off ethylene, a gas that shortens their life. At an event that means three things: keep the flower tables out of the afternoon sun at a tent's open side, keep the centrepieces off the buffet line, and keep the fruit platters on a different table.
The flower you choose matters too. The same source gives carnations 14 to 21 days in a vase and chrysanthemums a week or more, against five to seven for peonies. For a long, warm day, ask us which hardy flowers suit your colours.
Building the rest of the table
Flowers are the middle of a set table, not all of it. Glass candle holders around the arrangement add light after dark: our glass candle holders keep a flame steady in a breeze. A gold table runner under the flowers ties a row of tables together. At a ruracio, a calabash centrepiece (KSh 500 each) can stand beside the flowers, or hold them by agreement. The tables and their linen are on our dressed round tables page, and every flower option, low and tall, is under fresh flowers for events.

Questions about this item
No questions yet. Ask anything — sizes, colours, how many you need for your guests, delivery to your area. We answer here, usually within a day.
How reviews work on Sherehe
- Every review is read by our team. We publish good and bad reviews alike — a low star rating is never a reason to hold one back.
- If we have not got to it, a review publishes by itself after 2 days — unless it contains a link, a phone number or words that need a look. Photos always wait for a person.
- Confirmed hire means we matched the review to a real Sherehe booking.
- If we ever correct a review — for example to remove a phone number — it says Edited by Sherehe.
- Nobody is paid or given a discount for a review. If that ever changes, the review will say so.
- Reviewers' contact details are never shown. Visitors can report anything that breaks these rules; reported items go back to our team.
Table flower questions
How much are floral centerpieces?
KSh 2,500 a centrepiece. Ten tables come to KSh 25,000. Arranging and placing are included; transport is added by distance.
Are they low enough to talk over?
Yes, that is what the low centrepiece is for. Ask us the height of the arrangement for your colours.
Can you match my colours?
Send two or three colours when you book. Fresh flowers vary a little; if one is unavailable we suggest an equivalent first.
How many do I need?
One per round table, or several spaced down a long table. For 100 guests at round tables of eight, that is 13.
Will the colours match the photos exactly?
Very closely, but we would rather be honest about the small print of physical materials. Fresh flowers are natural products and vary slightly in colour, size and shape between batches. Balloon shades vary a little between manufacturers and production runs. And colours on a phone or laptop screen are never a perfect match for the same colour in daylight — that one catches people out more than anything else. Custom designs also need a degree of creative interpretation. Where a particular flower, colour or décor item becomes unavailable we will propose an equivalent, and anything materially different we discuss with you first. For custom boards, signs and printing, please check the proof carefully — once you have approved it, an error in the approved information may cost extra to reproduce.
Can I change my order after paying the deposit?
Yes, and the earlier the better — please give us at least 48 hours where you can. Additions are subject to what is in stock and are invoiced separately; last-minute additions are never guaranteed. Reductions are where it gets more complicated: once we have committed stock, crew and transport to your event, a reduction of more than 10% may not reduce the price proportionally, and customised items already made cannot normally be cancelled.
