 I took the cake topper from my wedding and put it behind a crystal candle holder to get this effect. I also placed a flower from our wedding around the candleholder for some color.

Post processing:

I desaturated the whole picture to get a softer older feel. I also added a white border. I gave it more contrast and I brightned it a bit.

Focus seems a bit soft to me.

I think the flowers should be a little more in focus.

Nice shot and great colours. Wish the focus was a little sharper in places.
