For Christmas, the most beautiful centerpieces delivered by your local florist

The centerpiece is the focal point of the Christmas table . Placed in the middle of the table setting, it draws the eye, sets the festive mood, and transforms a meal into a celebratory occasion. Seasonal greenery, holly, pinecones, red berries, and sometimes candles come together in a low, generous arrangement designed to decorate without getting in the way of conversation. At Sessile, your Christmas centerpiece is handcrafted by a florist who delivers to your town. Drawing on their inspiration and seasonal foliage, they create a festive arrangement—ranging from the most natural to the most sparkling—ready to adorn your Christmas Eve table.

Having a Christmas centerpiece delivered through Sessile follows the same process as a standard order. You enter the delivery address, see which florists serve that town, and then choose the arrangement you like from their catalog. The florist prepares it using fresh flowers and foliage, packages it securely for transport, and delivers it in person on the date you’ve chosen. Our network coversall of France: the centerpiece can be delivered to your home or to the home of your guests. It’s also a lovely gesture to give to a host, to decorate their holiday table and bring a little Christmas magic to their home.

In-store pickup remains a convenient and more affordable option, since shipping is free. When you check out online, select “Click & Collect” and specify the pickup date; the florist will notify you as soon as the arrangement is ready. This way, you can take a look at it before taking it home, make sure it complements your table and tableware, and leave with an arrangement that’s as fresh as can be. Picking it up in person is also a great opportunity to ask the florist for advice on the size, candles, or colors that will best suit your party decor.

The centerpiece is what gives the Christmas table its festive character. Placed at the heart of the table setting, it catches the eye, anchors the decor, and immediately puts guests in the holiday spirit. Unlike a single object, a floral arrangement brings the scent and freshness of the Christmas tree, the texture of pinecones and berries, and the glow of candles—everything that makes Christmas magical. It’s also a welcoming decoration around which everyone gathers for the meal. Finally, it makes an ideal gift for a host: giving a Christmas centerpiece is like giving the festive atmosphere all ready to go, just waiting to be placed on the table.

A Christmas centerpiece is built around a base of evergreen foliage, which gives it volume and lush greenery. Fir, pine, eucalyptus, or cypress form the base, which is often fragrant. Next come the elements that capture the true spirit of Christmas: holly and red berries, pinecones, cinnamon sticks, driedorange slices, small berries, stars, and ribbons. Finally, candles are the signature element of many centerpieces, bringing warmth and light to the meal. Depending on the desired style, the arrangement can be naturally understated—featuring greenery and natural materials—or festive, accented with red, gold, or white. Your artisan will create the arrangement to suit your table and the desired atmosphere.

Candles are often the centerpiece of a Christmas table arrangement. Arranged among greenery, they evoke the Advent wreath and cast a warm glow, perfect for setting the mood of a festive meal. Choose tall candles for an elegant look, or short ones grouped together for a more intimate display, in colors that complement the arrangement—red, white, gold, or natural tones. If you prefer, the centerpiece can also be candle-free, relying solely on foliage and decorations. For safety, never leave lit candles unattended, especially near dry foliage. Your florist will tailor the arrangement based on whether or not you’d like to include candles.

Christmas table decorations vary depending on personal taste and the desired atmosphere. The traditional style features red and gold, holly, and berries for a warm, classic table setting. The natural style, which is very popular right now, focuses on greenery, wood, pinecones, and a few touches of white, in a simple, Scandinavian spirit. The chic style emphasizes white, silver, and a minimalist arrangement for an elegant table. You can also embrace bold colors or add some sparkle. The key is to coordinate the centerpiece with the rest of the decor—tablecloth, tableware, candles—to create a cohesive look. Your artisan will help you choose the style that best complements your holiday meal.

A centerpiece made of fresh greenery can last for several days—often for the entire holiday season—if cared for properly. Keep it away from direct heat sources, which cause the foliage to dry out more quickly, and occasionally mist the greenery with a little water to preserve its freshness and fragrance. If the arrangement is based on damp moss, be sure to keep it moist. Remove any elements that start to wilt as the days go by. Centerpieces made with dried or preserved elements, on the other hand, require no maintenance and can often be reused year after year. And if candles are included, remember to replace them once they’ve burned down to keep the display looking its best.

At Sessile, each Christmas centerpiece is crafted by an independent florist who delivers to your community. Creating a well-balanced centerpiece requires true expertise—shaping the foliage base, balancing the decorations, harmoniously incorporating candles, and determining the right height—all of which our artisans have mastered. Each artisan creates their arrangement based on their own inspiration, the plants available to them, and the spirit of the holidays. You choose the arrangement from their catalog; they bring the freshness of the greenery and the touch of a professional. Warm, fragrant, and festive, the Christmas centerpiece is one of the most beautiful ways to dress up your table and celebrate the holidays surrounded by beautiful decor.
