I think the main thing to keep in mind is just to make sure that people can see
and talk to each other without having to lean around the flowers or peer over
them. Usually I try to keep it smallish and low, and just set it in the center
of the table.

The flower arrangement should be in proportion with the container not the table.
Formal arrangements used to be 1 and 1/2 x's the hight of the vase, urn or
ewer. There doesn't seem to be a stead fast rule any longer.However, centre
pieces should always permit for easy eye contact between people, so no one
should have to look arround the arrangement to see another person. Also, bear
in mind how the table is being set and permitting room for dishes, etc.
Sometimes a tiny vase or old perfume bottle with a single flower or rose bud in
front of each person will work very well.Have fun.
