For dazzling table decorations, use accents that are decorated with rhinestones such as jeweled votive holders or place card holders. Infuse a modern feel to the decor by using mirrors, acrylic plates, and glass for your tableware to add that additional sparkle.
Some table and reception decorating tips to consider:
- For your floral centerpieces, find those with a beautiful hue of blue or violet such as hydrangeas, delphinium, and irises. Complement them with a flower that has a hue of green, ivory, yellow, or chartreuse. Flowers such as stephanotis or roses arranged into topiaries are also a nice addition because of their interesting shape and form.
- Select a variety of candles in different styles and shapes such as white tea lights, white candles, or light blue votives. By using an assortment of candles, you can create a more interesting candlescape as opposed to using one kind of candle, which can make the table look dull and boring. For an equally great look, try using frosted glass bowls displayed with simple white floating candles spread with fragrant lavender petals.
- Use fabrics such as silk shantung, damask, and satin for your table linens and napkins. These types of fabrics have a beautiful texture, which come to life when used in an illuminated setting. An organza overlay with embroidery (as seen above) is also a great addition due to its elegant shimmering effect.
- Decorate the table with simple and modern embellishments such as crystals, frosted glass beads, and sequins. Spread them freely for a subtle and elegant appearance.
- For an evening party, have a wedding tent decorated at the ceiling with graceful swags of fabric and hanging paper lanterns. Ask your event designer to recommend the proper size, color, and style of fabrics to use.
- If you want to go all out and splurge, use gold Chiavari ballroom chairs at the reception (i.e., chairs that are made with a bamboo joint and have a distinctive look to their design). Have them decorated with lavish ribbons that match your wedding colors for a brilliant touch.
