Wedding Reception Centerpieces
Your wedding reception centerpieces are the focal point of your wedding reception tables, so you will want to put a lot of thought and planning into making them as amazing and eye-catching as possible. Whether you're going for a traditional, elegant, sophisticated, romantic, unique, or fun look to your wedding, the best way to set the mood for your special day is to create the perfect wedding reception centerpieces.
Ten Tips for your Wedding Reception Centerpieces
So, consider some of these helpful tips to when getting ready to choose your wedding reception centerpieces and decorations.1. Flowers really make your wedding day special, but don't forget to add other natural elements to your wedding reception centerpieces. Consider using branches, bamboo, long grasses, pinecones, or whatever is indigenous to your local area.
2. Get creative with the receptacles you use by choosing ones that match your wedding's theme. Cowboy boots for western weddings, Chinese vases for Asian weddings, or boxes in the shape of dice for Vegas style weddings.
3. Fill your glass receptacles with unique fillers, such as colorful water pearls, glass marbles, heart shaped candies, coffee beans, or sand.
4. Place special waterproof lights at the bottoms of your glass vases to create a romantic and interesting look. The lights are activated when they are touched by water.
5. When using candles, group them together on plates or tie them together with ribbons to create an interesting arrangement.
6. Instead of a large flower arrangement, place bowls filled with colored water or crystals and put floating candles on top for a different kind of look.
7. Fill glass vases with layers of different colored sand to create beautiful and unique wedding reception centerpieces. These are a popular alternative to the traditional unity candles used in the wedding ceremony.
8. Create miniature wedding reception centerpieces at each place setting around the table and attach your place cards in or on them.
9. When making over-sized wedding reception centerpieces, keep in mind that people will want to talk with each other across the table, so make sure there is a clear line of sight by using tall vases or containers.
10. Rather than using flowers, put together an arrangement of balloons and towards the end of the reception have each table go outside for a balloon launch in celebration of your union.
