Tabletop Tips and Tricks

There are many things to consider when deciding how to set your wedding tables, including table shape and size, linens, centerpieces, and the actual table settings.  If you're finding yourself confused, read on for some helpful tips and tricks!

Table Shape and Size

Wedding table arrangementThe choice between square, rectangular and round tables is almost completely an aesthetic one.  In general, most rental companies' prices are very similar for an 8' rectangular table and a 60" round one, both of which seat about 8 people.

My Favourite Non-Floral Bouquets

In the past couple of years, non-floral bouquets have been gaining popularity among trendy brides.  As a Planner, I love the opportunity these funky bouquets provide to incorporate aspects of my couples' personalities.  For example:
  • musicians could include paper flowers made from sheet music
  • people who sew could make pretty fabric blooms
  • jewellery makers could hand-bead gorgeous flowers for a blingy bouquet
  • heirloom brooches and pins can be used to incorporate the couples' heritage
  • inspired chefs could create bouquets from herbs or berries

Gray, the New Black

Gray weddingTraditionally, couples have accented their wedding colours with standard white and black, as these neutrals compliment any colour scheme, and are readily available in linens and decor items.  Recently, and to this Planner's great excitement, intrepid couples have expanded their palettes and their themes to include gray, a fresh neutral that packs a big punch.
 
From pale dove gray to classy pewter to strong charcoal, there are endless tones to choose from, all of which work exceptionally well together, and with virtually any other colour palette.

Cranberry and Cedar Wedding Theme

I suppose one could call the weather outside today a "winter wonderland", which got me thinking about winter weddings.  If I put my personal feelings about the snow and the cold aside, the winter is really a perfectly romantic time to tie the knot.  Everything is white and shimmery, the trees make a beautiful photo backdrop (if you can handle the cold!) with their wintry branches, and if you book the right venue, you can create a warm, cosy ambiance your guests will love.
