Table Ideas For Your Wedding

Your wedding plans are underway, and the next item on your list is table ideas. There are many things to consider with wedding tables. The most obvious item is the centerpieces. Florist arrangements can be pricey and troublesome. A smaller floral arrangements paired with tea light candles can end up saving you over $25 a table. The floral arrangements and decor is one of your wedding’s largest expenses. Be creative and save hundreds. There great ideas in bridal magazines and on the Internet. Make your decorations one of a kind. Visit craft stores to brainstorm for more ideas. Look at what options are out there before you give into a larger florist bill.

Remember to make the centerpieces appropriate for the reception hall size and floor plan. Sometimes a large centerpiece just adds clutter; tables can get stuffed with flat wear, name tags and table numbers. Some table arrangements can obstruct the guests view. A tall centerpiece can be beautiful but will the block the view to head table during speeches or a video slideshow.

Another issue to tackle with the tables is the seating arrangements. Save your guests from rushing for a spot by using an assigned seating plan. Begin your seating arrangements with a chart of the room. How many tables do you have and how many guests? Take the guest list and cut the names out to make little cards. Arrange the cards at the different tables so it is easier to visualize the group at the table.

You will want some friends and family closer to the head table than others. Remember, you want everyone to have a good time. Each table should have a mix of mutual friends and new people to share dinner conversation. For example: Your step-father and brother-in-law are both in the Air Force…Instant ice breaker.
