Is it during the day or at night?
Centerpieces can be anything....flowers, candles. Do you plan on making them yourself?

We had a party for my grandmother and we used lots of flowers in the decorating and lots of family photos.
You can incorporate a photo into the invite.
There can even be photos as part of the centerpieces or as part of a display at the party.

We also took a family photo (all children/grandchildren and great-grandchildren) and gave it to her as a gift.

Does she have a favorite flower? You could use that for c-pieces

Use old time candy from her childhood days as favors

Your could do a years like the 20's, 30's, 40's, 50's etc. and have pics from her in each decade blown up.

maybe make each table a different decade, and decorate it according to the decade that it is. Kind of like a 'Through the years" type of thing.
