Table inspiration needed, please!

We are getting married in a few months. We have round tables with white table linen. I've found some tall glass vases as I'd like flowers with lots of greenery that spill down.
Our surname is 'cockle' (don't laugh) and so we have jars of cockles with a name tag on for people to find their seats at the tables (as well as a table name board), and I've edged these labels in gold leaf. I'd like the tables to have a bit of a colour scheme as I've been quite relaxed with the flowers, no colour scheme as such just wild green white and pretty.

What could I add to the table or put the vases on, or maybe tea light holders to pull the whole thing together? I'm really struggling to picture what the tables are going to look like in my head. Any inspiration greatly appreciated :)

Couple of candles in glass holders?

Are you really giving cockles as your favour? I bloody love cockles with a beer

Yes we are- we have to really with our surname, but I doubt many people will actually eat them ( I really like them Blush). Filling the kids Cockle jars with those prawn sweets as that's the closest I could find.

Not what you asked, but wouldn't tall vases block peoples' view and hamper conversation between guests sitting across from each other?

We are having tall narrow glass vases that widen at the top, as sharing starters being served on the tables and thought this would be a way to make space. They're narrow so hopefully people will still be able to see each other and chat. Few greenery bits hanging down but not loads x
