Being engaged and buying the dress is just the start of it! Now you need to think about how you can create perfect wedding table decorations that will impress your guests. We can’t stress enough how important it is to take the time to get the look as well as ensure maximum impact and style.

To ensure your tables ooze style, you need to go back to basics and create a mood board. This can be a scrap book, a corkboard or just a sheet of paper on which you record all your wedding style ideas. Make this your platform for swatches of bridesmaid dress material, wedding invitation samples, pictures of bouquets, colours you wish to incorporate and even words to describe the theme of your day e.g. rural, rustic, casual or romantic, suave, decadent. Once you have started putting ideas to paper, some general trends should prevail which will provide the inspiration you require for creating wedding table decorations with impact.

The next point to consider is when and where your event will be taking place. If your event is taking place in country pub in high summer, your inspiration can be taken from summer blooms, garden lanterns, bunting and gingham. Alternatively, if you are marrying in a stately home in the winter, your inspiration will be taken from regal gold tones, marble statues, cosy hearths and deep purple velvet. In order for your wedding accessories to co-ordinate successfully with your surroundings, you must consider the season and your venue carefully. If you are permitted, it might be worth taking a photograph of your venue and including it in your mood board.

Once your ideas are coming together nicely, you can start to consider which colour palette will be right for you. To achieve maximum impact, your table decorations, wedding favours and table accessories need to be in the right tone and shade. If your event is in the spring, use the seasonal greens, soft pinks & bright daffodil yellows as your starting point. If your event is taking place in the summer, be inspired by hot tropical pinks mixed with orange. Choose Christmas reds and green if marrying in the winter or burnished copper, gold and orange if marrying in the Autumn.

Though it is not essential, it would be sensible to set one table up exactly as it will be on the wedding day just to see how it is going to look. Now it’s time to start shopping! You will need to remember to include wedding favours, place cards, menu cards, decorative balloons, table gems, table trivia and other decorative items. It would also be worth purchasing just one or two blooms that will be used in your table centrepiece to give you an overall feel.
This provides an ideal opportunity to take a reference photograph so that you can show your venue, planner or bridesmaid exactly how you want your tables presented on the big day itself.

So, whether you are a tropical Summer bride or a sensitive spring bride, hopefully this has given you some great ways in which you can create amazing wedding tables that are sure to impress even the most discerning of guests. Don’t forget to take your inspiration from your venue and the time of year to ensure maximum impact and style consistency.
