Help with centerpieces please!

[Gnoshey]

Hello All - I recently had my planning session and everything went great except for floral. I have no idea what I want and my fiancé thinks the tables will look good without anything on them But seriously, our reception is at Flame Tree BBQ and I've included some pictures of the area that I took while we were visiting. The tables are actually going to be round 6 tops with the same chairs in the picture with white linens and such. The wedding is April 17th, so I guess springish junk would be appropriate. I would love any and all of your ideas; here are my issues though ( there are always issues ) I don't like lilies or roses. We originally went with some moroccan lanterns with bright multi-colored glass, but now that I think about it - I don't think the metal would look good with the already existing decor. My mom recommended a wreath type dealio with more greenery and a few well placed bright flowers, but I'm not crazy about it. I've spent hours searching websites, and I will continue to do so, but I am driving myself nuts on this. Anyway - here are the pics, I am looking for something that adds to or at least does not clash with the area - maybe someone will be inspired. OH! I forgot - it's an evening wedding

I would go with white linens with a green runner
and link in with the exotic look of AK
maybe
a bird of paradise centrepiece??

or if you feel something smaller would suit you better something greenery based?
something like this

or even a bamboo mat runner and green orchids in bowls??

you could link in with the water around the venue and have glass bowls/tubes with floating candles? I know you said no lilies but I think waterlilys would look amazing

Im not sure if i helped or hindered! I guess it would depends on what flowers you like.
The venue is lovely I would love to have an AK reception!

Bird of paradise is perfect! It's so obvious - I don't know how 2 mildly intelligent people ( my fiance and I ), a wedding planner, Disney freaking floral, and my mother who has an answer for everything did not even think about bird of paradise. Thank you so much

So silly that I actually stressed over this
