When choosing your wedding table decorations and wedding accessories, it is worth taking the time to get the look right; you want your guests to be bowled over when they enter your reception room because your tables ooze stylish and co-ordinated design.

The first and probably the most important job you need to do is create a mood board. This can be in any form whether it be a notebook, whiteboard or simply a sheet of paper. It becomes the place where you record all your wedding style ideas and include dress material samples, wedding menu cards, floral arrangement cuttings from magazines and colours you wish to incorporate. You can even include words to describe the theme of your day e.g. free-flowing, spirited and casual or opulent, stylish and regal. Once you have started putting ideas to paper, some general trends will become evident which will provide the inspiration you require for creating the perfect wedding table decorations.

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.
