WEDDINGS
Suggested seating arrangements:
- Banquet
- Boardroom
Deciding what to decorate your wedding tables with can be a daunting task. There are so many options, and usually, there are large guest lists to account for. Yet, there is one saving grace – the color white.
Most of the time, the table cloths at weddings are white, so that’s one less thing you have to think about. Of course, you could choose another color. There’s no rule against that.
While choosing decorations for wedding tables, you need to consider what the bridal party is wearing. It’s never a bad idea to find hints of the groom’s tie or shirt color in the color schemes of your table decorations. You could achieve this with table dressings, napkins or flowers.
Speaking of flowers, It’s traditional to have flowers in the center of tables; they could be similar to those in the bride’s bouquet or something completely new.
Silverware, glassware and crockery can also be an essential part of wedding table decorations. Make sure you keep this in mind when choosing each of these to you end up with a cohesive set of dinnerware.
The bridal party table should stand out from the rest; make sure you save something special for that table.
SWEET 16THS (AND OTHER BIRTHDAYS), GRADUATIONS AND RETIREMENTS
Suggested seating arrangements:
- Banquet
- Cabaret
- Boardroom
These events are all to celebrate one particular person. So, make an effort to point to that fact in the table decorations.
If there is a single rectangular table, It’s a fantastic idea to have the important person seated at the head of the table. You could also have a small table with the guest of honor facing toward smaller cabaret-style seating.
When choosing decorations for these events, consider the favorite colors, flowers or anything else the essential guest loves. This is easy if you’re planning it for yourself, but it could be a little tricky if you’re planning a surprise party.
Make sure there is enough clearance over any decorations so people can talk. A common mistake with birthday parties is placing huge numbered balloons in the center of the table, so people cannot see around them. It’s still okay to have them but make sure someone can move them away as the evening progresses.
