Sorry if this is a very nooby question, but it's my first time trying CentOS and I'm installing from Live-CD. I want to get a server up and running in VirtualBox but during installation no option for server or desktop comes up. From step by step guides I've seen online it should be the last option but my installation skips it entirely. Do I need a different ISO, or is there something else I'm not doing. Thanks in advance!
CentOS Live CD won't install server

You don't want the live-CD, you want the DVDs, then you will have the choice of installing the servers.If you check any mirror (e.g. this), you can see CentOS-6.3-x86_64-bin-DVD1.iso which is what you want.
