Bride and groom wedding table decoration

The perception of the whole festive celebration largely depends on the design of the wedding table of the bride and groom. To design a place that will be the center of attention throughout the whole evening, the easiest way is to turn to the services of professionals. But if the bride and groom or other members of their families are capable of embodying this beauty with their own hands, then they have a great chance to give free rein to their own imagination and realize their creative ideas.

The way the wedding table will be decorated depends largely on the season. You can arrange a holiday in the open air or in a warm room, which suggests the use of certain techniques for creating an environment.

The scope of the event is also important. It is one thing to organize a modest buffet table, and another to organize a full-fledged feast for the whole world. Entourage can be done both expensively and modestly.

To create a cozy atmosphere, the very approach to business is important.

• The place of the bride and groom is placed in the center - it should be visible from any corner of the banquet hall.
• The newlyweds' table must be decoratively highlighted so that it attracts attention.
• You need to decorate not only the young table itself, but also the space in front of it, as well as behind it.
• When decorating, it is important to observe the unity of style. Decor elements must be combined with the bride's dress and bouquet, the groom's suit, themed shades and wedding attributes.
• Certain elements in the design of the central table should overlap with the decor on the guests' tables.

So, many consider it necessary to have such attributes as a wedding loaf, bottles of champagne and vodka, as well as originally decorated glasses of the newlyweds.

In western Russia, a table decoration is often made a composition of a bunch of rye or wheat, decorated with a red ribbon, as well as two wooden spoons and viburnum. In other regions, they offer their own symbolic signs for the wedding.

The decor of the wedding table should match the mood of the young people. You can emphasize the atmosphere of tenderness and restraint in the design. For this, you can choose suitable colors such as blue or peach.

Lovers of pomp can choose a design in bright colors with appropriate decorations and attributes.

It is simply impossible to do without flowers in decorating a festive table for a wedding. A common variant is when the main bouquet is placed in the center, and its modest "copies" are placed on other tables.

The background can also be decorated with matching colors. For this, for example, flower garlands are suitable. In winter, conifers with cones can be used to create a composition around the wedding table.

Natural flowers can be replaced with artificial ones, for example, made of plastic, fabric or paper. If they are illuminated with LED lamps, it will be possible to give the composition a rich and sophisticated look.

When creating bouquets and flower decorations, it is important not to overdo it with additions such as ribbons and beads. This can make the decoration look too heavy or even tasteless.

As far as the use of specific varieties of flowers is concerned, the traditional roses and lilies are increasingly out of fashion lately. Even if they are used, it will not be in the form of the usual bouquets in vases, but as an addition to a curly branch on the table.

Decorating with textiles sometimes becomes the basis for creating the entire composition of a wedding table. Fabrics decorate the space behind the young, table and chairs. The volume is set with the help of various flounces and folds that emphasize the features of the fabric and its beauty. Drapery can play a key role in the perception of where young people are seated.

To create airiness, you can use fabrics such as nylon, organza, chiffon and the like. Natural fabrics such as linen or cotton will be good. Sometimes even burlap is used. It perfectly complements the atmosphere of a rustic wedding table in accordance with the general theme of the wedding.

For a table that is designed in a classic version, a lace fabric is more suitable. Lace fabric looks very elegant, especially if it is used to make a "skirt" for the table. Another material is usually placed under such material, acting as a bottom layer. Thanks to this, the table is more convenient to use, and the legs of the sitting people are not visible through the lace.

When choosing lace fabric as the main one, you need to make sure that lace elements are present both in the design of the bride's bouquet and in the decor of the glasses of the young.

If you want the use of lace to go only “dotted” through the decoration of the place for a feast, you can limit yourself to using it in napkins, in the design of vases and baskets, and so on. It is important that such elements fit well into the overall environment.

Using candles to decorate a wedding table is a very good way to create an atmosphere of intimacy or mystery.They do not even need to be ignited until a certain moment, and the proper impression will already be largely achieved.

Decorate the table well with candles of different sizes, decorated in the same spirit. There are many options for candles today. You can buy them in the store or order them from the handcrafted candle maker. Candles can be of different diameters and heights, colors and designs. They should be installed on stable surfaces (chandeliers and platforms) that can prevent wax from spilling onto the tablecloth or igniting a flame if overturned.

A good solution would be to use candles, which are essentially LED lamps. They can eliminate the need to take special fire-fighting measures when the table is decorated with materials that can easily ignite. Such lamps look very elegant. Sometimes it is impossible to distinguish them outwardly from natural candles.

Many people consider the use of scented candles a good option, but here it must be borne in mind that some people may have a negative reaction to these very scents, or this smell will simply quickly interfere. It is easier not to use such candles at all or to light them only at a certain moment and for a very short time.

Balloons are often used in weddings. They make interesting figures in the form of arches, wedding rings and bouquets. Such aerial compositions are traditionally placed behind the newlyweds' table. They can also be used to decorate a place in front of the table.

The colors of the balls are chosen in accordance with the general color scheme of the holiday.

Taking on the decoration of the table of young people with their own hands, you need to pay attention to the fact that, in addition to matching the general atmosphere, the decor is comfortable. Its elements should not obscure the bride and groom, they should have a place to move calmly without the risk of knocking over vases, candles and other "decorations".

A wide variety of colors can be used to decorate the wall behind the bride and groom seated at the table. Vivid drawings are laid out of them in the form of hearts, swans and other symbolic compositions.

To decorate the backdrop beautifully, you can use curtains. They can be stacked in a wide variety of folds and curves, creating arches and waves behind the newlyweds. It is beautiful if the fabric flows and creates the effect of flying clouds.

LED decorations can be used in multiple tiers. In such an entourage, young people will be able to look like on stage. Everyone will be able to admire them throughout the entire feast.

An interesting option is to use large lettering from individual paper letters. These can be the words "family", "love", the names of the newlyweds, and so on. It all depends on the wishes of the newly minted spouses themselves. Such inscriptions are also placed behind the table.

When creating flower arrangements on the table, you should approach this matter taking into account the symbolism of flowers. Many people like hydrangeas, for example. Only the meaning of this flower is heartlessness. For the decoration of the table of the newlyweds, a peony, symbolizing passion, or bells, emphasizing devotion, are more suitable.

To make the table look original, it is advisable to use imagination and, for example, make candlesticks from natural fruits. Oranges, small pumpkins or apples are good for this.

We can say that decorating the place of the newlyweds in the banquet hall in white looks somewhat monotonous. But due to the multi-colored illumination, the backdrop and the front of the table become interesting, airy, light and solemn.

White and green design in the spirit of a summer glade is very appropriate when holding a holiday on a terrace or in a hall where there is a lot of air. Translucent fabrics, green tones look gentle and caress the eye. Modest decorations in the form of ribbons and butterflies create an impression of naivety, grace and subtle simplicity.

Young spouses who know how to attract attention will be delighted to have a table decorated in rich colors. Moreover, garlands of flowers, bouquets and other attributes can be placed so that they will serve as an elegant frame for the table, on which only serving items can be placed. At such a table, young people will not feel constrained.

At a table decorated with light fabrics and beautiful flower garlands, the newly-minted husband and wife will be able to feel like the king and queen of a fairy-tale state. The atmosphere of magic created by such receptions will set all guests in a romantic mood.
