5 Top Tips for styling a wedding table that sings!
Creating a visually stunning table setting is a great way to impress your guests and enhance the overall ambiance of
your wedding breakfast.
You have probably have pinned lots of pictures from Pinterest but feel overwhelmed how to bring all the elements together.
Don’t stress, here are some top tips for creating the perfect tablescape with that wow factor.
Tip One - Deciding on your Table Style
Firstly, it’s important to know what type of table choice your venue has to offer. This may dictate your styling. However, if it doesn’t fit your style you may have to hire tables to get the look you want.
Another consideration is the size of the tables, most venues offer different sized round tables to accommodate charger plate settings and additional guest seating. Tressel tables usually only seat 6 guests so additional styling
may be required ..
Tip Two - Choosing your Colour Palette
To create a cohesive look, continue the same colour scheme throughout your wedding.Try to stick to a limited palette of 2-3 colours for an elegant appearance.
High-quality tablecloths or runners in complementary colours can set the foundation for your table. Linens in natural materials like linen or cotton can add texture and sophistication. To create depth to your table, use different shades and tones of the palette you have chosen.
If you plan to use bright coloured blooms, reduce the colour tones of the rest of the table so the flowers are not lost in your design.
Tip Three - Incorporate Textures
This is where you can stamp your style on the table.
Give your table lots of personality by adding subtle textures in your colour palette with the use of napkins, placenames, menus, glasses, or ribbon.
To create elegance and texture consider using charger plates to elevate your table to the next level. Incorporating these different textures will add depth and interest and prevent your wedding from looking like a corporate event.
Tip Four - Explore Different Heights
This is an opportunity to create a wow factor by adding elements of different heights to add dimension.
This can be achieved with candlesticks and votives which also add warmth and ambience to the table.
Striking floral arrangements with differing heights will definitely give you that WOW factor, just make sure it’s proportionate to the table and it doesn’t obstruct the guests views or conversation.
Tip Five - Personalise
Consider adding personal elements like a handwritten note for each guest or a special message for the occasion.
Incorporate personal touches that reflect your personality or the theme of the event. They could be custommade items or sentimental pieces; you are only limited by your imagination!
Remember, the most important aspect of table styling is to create an atmosphere that enhances the overall experience for your guests. Tailor your choices to your personal style and the theme of your event for a truly memorable and impressive table setting.
