Wedding Reception Centerpieces - Inspirations
So, consider some of these helpful tips to when getting ready to choose your wedding reception centerpieces and decorations.
Tips for your Table Centerpieces:
1. Get creative with the receptacles you use by choosing ones that match your wedding’s theme. Cowboy boots for western weddings, Chinese vases for Asian weddings, or boxes in the shape of dice for Vegas style weddings.
2. Fill your glass receptacles with unique fillers, such as colorful water pearls, glass marbles, heart shaped candies, coffee beans, or sand.
3. When using candles, group them together on plates or tie them together with ribbons to create an interesting arrangement.
4. Fill glass vases with layers of different colored sand to create beautiful and unique wedding reception centerpieces. These are a popular alternative to the traditional unity candles used in the wedding ceremony.
5. Rather than using flowers, put together an arrangement of balloons and towards the end of the reception have each table go outside for a balloon launch in celebration of your union.
The placement of guests at your wedding reception is important to the overall success of your wedding dinner and dance. It may seem like a minor detail when you have a million and one other important wedding issues to consider, but if you seat the wrong people together, or make your guests feel uncomfortable, you will regret it.
Furthermore, you need a way to inconspicuously inform the wait staff of who ordered what meal. You may use two different place card holders – the starfish place card holders are having sea bass, and the silver shell place card holders are having roast beef. Or you could simply put an F (for fish) or B (for beef) in the top corner of each place card. Another good method is to tie ribbons around the place card holders in different colors to signify the meal choices.
Place card holders can be purchased to match your wedding theme as well starfish or shell holders for a beach theme, silver fortune cookies for an Asian theme, snowflakes for a winter theme – you get the idea!
The other hidden benefit of place card holders is that if you purchase nice ones, you can let your guests take them home when the affair is over, and thus you have just killed two birds with one stone since the place card holders can easily double as unique wedding favors. What a great way to stretch a wedding budget and still offer your esteemed wedding guests a nice thank you gift.
