Take some vases - have your bridesmaids set their bouquets on the tables, and let your ‘maids keep the vase when it’s time to go. You can buy some really cool vases pretty inexpensively - like a couple dollars. You can look anywhere from a craft store to Ikea.
Stick with that honey and reuse your boquets for flowers. You don’t want to place too much on the tables. It looks fantastic at first but then when the food comes it is all going to end up on the floor. Make sure you havnt excluded basic accesories like salt, pepper, and sweetner.
If you want you can make chair sashes for the backs of the chairs to dress is up a small. Email me for DIY instructions.
You can also buy dried lavender in bulk very cheaply and sprinkle that on the table instead of the usual rose petals.
Because it is a restaurant you have to be careful, see what they allow. At my restaurant we allow pretty much anything that can be cleaned easily. I would maybe look at some flower petals to sprinkle around the table? You don’t want to over do it even if, sometimes less is best. Have a fantastic wedding even if, it will be wonderful no matter what you chose.
use those glass "rocks/marbles" that are in the craft section and sprinkle a couple of them on the tables
I certainly would check out local thrift stores or garage sales for vases and candle holders. You could also wrapped small tea light candles in ribbon that is your wedding colors. I bought 7 large glass vases at goodwill for 6$. At walmart they are at least 5$ a piece. I plot on filling my about ¾ of the way with fake rose petals and putting a candle inside. Also you could fill them with water and out floating candle or tea light candles in them. This is really pretty with glass rocks at the bottom.
I’m thinking that you doubtless aren’t having many bridesmaids with this small of a dinner, so putting their bouquets out will not help. How about going to a dollar store and getting various sized candles in your colors and place them on glass tiles (also can be very inexpensive or the restaurant may have some you can borrow). The light reflects very nicely in the mirror and by staggering sizes you can really add some pow to the room. Question the restaurant manager for thoughts too, they have doubtless seen a lot of variations on decorations and may have items you can use.
Excellent Luck
Congratulations! And kudos on the lavender those are going to be my colors too! One thought that I got from weddingchannel.com is to float gerbera daisies in a bowl. i saw some at the grocery store for about $3 for 4. Depending on the size of your bowl, you should only need 3 per bowl. You could also use floating candles which can be found at Dollar Tree or Wal-Mart. The bottom of the bowl could also be decorated with flat marbles like people use in fish tanks. These come in a diversity of colors and look fantastic from from underwater. Those can be obtained at Dollar Tree or Wal-Mart. Lavender silk flower petals could be dotted on tables (such as the cake table) for effect. These are about $4 for 200 at orientaltrading.com This site has lots of wedding favor stuff and other wedding supplies really cheap.

Scatter white rose petals and lavender flowers across the table, like confetti. It will look nice and smell fabulous!
Several small floral centerpieces would be lovely.
