How To Create The Perfect Wedding Table Decorations
Being engaged and buying the dress is just the start of it! Now you need to think about how you can create perfect wedding table decorations that will impress your guests. We can’t stress enough how important it is to take the time to get the look as well as ensure maximum impact and style.
The first and probably the most important job you need to do is create a mood board. This can be in any form whether it be a notebook, whiteboard or simply a sheet of paper. It becomes the place where you record all your wedding style ideas and include dress material samples, wedding menu cards, floral arrangement cuttings from magazines and colours you wish to incorporate. You can even include words to describe the theme of your day e.g. free-flowing, spirited and casual or opulent, stylish and regal. Once you have started putting ideas to paper, some general trends will become evident which will provide the inspiration you require for creating the perfect wedding table decorations.
Secondly, you must consider when and where your event will be take place. For those choosing a country pub in high summer, your inspiration can be taken from summer blooms, garden lanterns and juvenile bunting. On the other hand, if you are marrying in a stately home in the winter, your inspiration will be taken from regal gold tones, marble statues, cosy hearths and deep purple velvet. In order for your wedding accessories to co-ordinate successfully with your surroundings, you must consider the season and your venue carefully. If it’s ok with your venue, it might be worth taking a photograph of your reception area and including it in your mood board.
Once your ideas are coming together nicely, you can start to consider which colour palette will be right for you. To achieve maximum impact, your table decorations, wedding favours and table accessories need to be in the right tone and shade. If your event is in the spring, use the seasonal greens, soft pinks & bright daffodil yellows as your starting point. If your event is taking place in the summer, be inspired by hot tropical pinks mixed with orange. Choose Christmas reds and green if marrying in the winter or burnished copper, gold and orange if marrying in the Autumn.
We would recommend that at this point you set one table up exactly as it will be on the wedding day itself so now it’s time to start shopping! Don’t forget table accessories such as favour boxes, place card holders, confetti, decorative balloons, table gems, cake slice boxes, table trivia and other decorative items. It would also be worth purchasing just one or two flowers that will be used in your table centrepiece to give you an overall look. This provides an ideal opportunity to take a reference photograph so that you can show your venue, planner or bridesmaid exactly how you want your tables presented on the big day itself.
