Four Beautiful Wedding Table Ideas

Posted by John Smith on December 29th, 2017

You want everything to be elegant and classy, so your guests will enjoy themselves and remember how special your wedding day is. Have you decided on how you’ll decorate your tables for the reception? Here are four beautiful ideas for wedding table covers, centre pieces, and more.

Vegas-inspired Wedding

A Vegas-inspired wedding needs black and red design elements. Cover the round tables with black cloth, and then use red roses and white feathers for centre pieces. Use simple white plates with red napkins or go all out with the crimson plates and gold napkins. For the name cards, you can use a simple black card with gold letters, or take them to another level by using playing cards as inspiration.

Greek-inspired Wedding

A Greek-inspired wedding screams golds and blues, whether it is placed on wedding table covers or centre pieces. You can cover your round tables with a white cloth, and then layer a sheet of gold cloth on top of it, and then use simple white plates with a blue design on the perimeter. Or you can go for a royal blue table cover and then pair this with gold place settings. The centre pieces can be as simple as a piece of drift wood adorned with lemons, leaves, and small white flowers, or as elegant as a bouquet of white roses in gold vases. For the name cards, you can use a simple white card with gold letters.

Rustic Garden Wedding

For a rustic garden wedding, you can set up round tables with wooden chairs. Cover the table with a white cloth and use candles in tall jars of different heights as centre pieces, adorning them with a foot or two of a freshly cut vine for a touch of green. Use a simple white plate for your place settings, matched with a cool-toned neutral-coloured napkin. For name cards, you can choose a simple calligraphy on brown paper to match the rustic theme of your wedding. If you’re having your wedding in a beautiful garden, these simple elements will allow you to include the location to be a part of the decoration. You really want to stick to a minimalist design because the greenery around you is enough to take your guests’ breaths away.

Elegant Beach Wedding

For an elegant beach wedding, you might be holding your reception in a tent. So, set up your long tables around the dance floor, covering them in a white cloth. Pair them up with coastal rattan chairs. On the table, put a running vine on top for decoration, using small candles in tiny mason jars or small lanterns and baby’s-breath as additional design elements. Choose a soft hue of blue or green for your plates, and then a match it with a simple white napkin, which you can present with a twine tied around it and a tiny shell glued to the twine for a little nod to the beach. The name cards can be written on sand-coloured paper.

Your wedding won’t be special if you’re reception isn’t themed right. Hopefully, these wedding table ideas have given you enough inspiration to plan the wedding.
