 You can still have flowers - just scale it back a bit.  Create your designs around less expensive flowers, adding just one or two of the more expensive flowers for emphasis.  Use smaller bunches of flowers that are in season.  Add cut flowers in small glass vases or other inexpensive containers in your bridal colors.  I've seen brides use mason jars, old pitchers, and old wine bottles as containers.   One bride borrowed some Antique Water Pitchers.  Anything can work, but try to find something that follows your wedding theme.  

Sparkle and light can make any table a very special table.  Candles are great.  Crystal accents can be used.  Place mirrors under the candles.  Select one nice glass crystal bowl with just one beautiful flower - like a gardenia - floating in the bowl to create a simple elegance.  A ring of single wick candles, with rose petals that have been sprayed with glitter, can add romantic lighting to the tables. A floating candle in a water filled container, with greenery all around is very easy.  Be sure to add colored glass stones to the bottom for even more flare!

Autumn weddings allow you to use the décor of the season to build a beautiful table arrangement.  Pumpkins, colorful corn, fall leaves in brilliant color, gourds and, of course, those wonderful mums that are in full bloom and color.
