Any table looks especially attractive and festive if it is decorated with flowers, and for each occasion you can choose your own version. Flowers on the table will be appropriate both on weekdays and on holidays. Therefore, it will be useful for everyone to know everything about flower arrangements on the table.

Arrangement features

The arrangement of flowers on the table should be compiled with an orientation to certain rules. Only in this case desktop floristic compositions made of live and sometimes dry flowers will look relevant and harmonious, complementing the table setting.

The table even on weekdays looks especially attractive if it is decorated with flowers. Of course, these will be modest options, but how nice it is to sit on the veranda for evening tea, if there are even ordinary cornflowers and daisies on the table.

And dinner, at which the whole family has gathered, will be held in a more pleasant atmosphere if you place on the table a tastefully decorated composition of 1-2 types of flowers, complemented by green twigs.

When decorating a table with flowers, some nuances should be taken into account.

  • Floristic compositions are allowed to be placed in any suitable container, but it is desirable that it be low and rather voluminous, so that the intended plot can be easily realized. You can consider metal, glass or wood options - it all depends on the overall concept of the table. If you do not have the option you need at hand, it is quite possible to consider the usual compote dishes, candy bowls and salad bowls.
  • When choosing a vase, it would be a better option to pay attention to the shape of the table. A round vase on the same table or an oval vase that repeats the shape of a kitchen furniture product will look especially harmonious.
  • If there is a big celebration ahead, it makes sense to place the central composition in the center of the table, and beside each guest there are individual small bouquets, harmoniously combined with the main idea. It is clear that such a design must be thought out in advance and installed before the main table setting.
  • It is not uncommon when the table is very long and there are many guests, placing several voluminous compositions at once, sustained in the same color scheme or shades that overlap with each other.
  • When decorating, remember that flowers are just a great addition, not the main element... Therefore, any compositions should unobtrusively complement the overall design and in no way interfere with people to communicate, covering everything around.
  • At the table where all people are sitting, compositions should not exceed 20 cm, this is the optimal height that does not obstruct the view and does not interfere with communication. Buffet tables imply free movement of people, so the height of bouquets can reach 40 cm, compositions are usually extremely miniature, not taking up much space. Serving and wine tables are complemented with small bouquets.

Choice of colors

The use of certain fresh flowers in compositions depends on the theme of the celebration. In principle, when choosing flowers, nothing limits the imagination of florists, the main thing is to take into account the preferences of the heroes of the occasion or focus on the general color scheme of the entire surrounding space. In addition, there are a few things to consider.

  • When decorating, flowers with a pronounced aroma are undesirable, not all guests can tolerate certain odors, and some may even have allergies.
  • All flowers must be pre-processed well, relieved of the earth, extra leaves, since there are dishes nearby. For the same reason, it is better to avoid decorating the table with flowers from which pollen can crumble.
  • For arranging the table, you can choose garden or greenhouse options, wildflowers or dry flowers... The main thing is to compose the composition so that it looks harmonious.
