Features of the design of wedding tables
A wedding is a touching and at the same time a bright event, which should leave exclusively positive memories in the memory of the newlyweds and guests. That is why at the preparatory stage every little thing is thought out, and special attention is paid to the design features of the decor of the wedding table. Of course, there are a lot of interesting ideas in the arsenal of professional wedding designers, but sometimes you yourself want to show your imagination and make the table of the bride and groom soulful. At the same time, we should not forget that tablecloths, curtains and drapery on the walls should be a single whole. Therefore, the colors, textures of the fabrics used and even table setting should harmoniously resonate.
Themed weddings are already in season. The event can be performed in the style of a boat trip, an original peasant feast, a rainbow celebration, a gangster party or a youth party. In any case, you should familiarize yourself with special design techniques in advance, including for arranging a table for the newlyweds.
The general style of the hall is the starting point for choosing the appearance of its main emphasis. The simplest in this direction is to choose a color version. But this does not mean that at the purple wedding, the tablecloths on the tables, like the curtains on the windows, should be purple. Rather, it is a game of various combinations of red and blue. After all, the final shade depends on their ratio.
The style of the main table at the wedding is determined by:
- decorator compositions;
- forms of background execution for the table of the newlyweds;
- style and receptacle placement techniques;
- additional nice little things, emphasizing that the mistress here is love.
Everything on the table matters - from dishes to napkins. The festive table setting can consist of perfectly white porcelain suitable for any style, or dishes of a different color and quality.So, for a wedding in pastel colors, dishes and plates of the same color, but brighter, more saturated, are suitable. For example, a pale pink tablecloth is a bright red dish, a light blue tablecloth is a rich blue plate, bowls.
Particular attention - napkins. They must be fabric.
To make a wedding table with your own hands, napkins can be placed in special rings decorated with natural or artificial flowers. Each guest, taking out the product, will feel the warmth that the hands of the hosts of the celebration conveyed to him. For decorating napkins, as well as cutlery, you can use hand-embroidered loops, pockets, envelopes, hearts with Velcro, and other cute decorations.
For guests
The choice of seating methods for guests at the table is not an easy task. It is possible to emphasize that all those gathered are close and dear to the newlyweds, using one large table. In this case, everyone will be united by a common conversation, no one will feel "far from the center of events." Such a table should meet a number of requirements:
- provide each of the guests with enough space;
- provide an opportunity for any guest to get a treat they like;
- provide all with napkins, cutlery, served dishes, including sauces, seasonings, spices.
At one large table, it is easier to choose a harmonious arrangement of dishes and decor.
The central part of the furniture is an ideal place for a bouquet or floral arrangement. However, we must not forget that any guest should be able to freely leave the table without disturbing a neighbor. Decorations are arranged so as not to hamper the movements of the guests, not to impede the choice of dishes.
The second option is to use small round or rectangular tables. Decor elements in this case are best provided for on walls, windows, columns, ceilings. On the table itself, if you have decorations, it is very concise and unbreakable. For decor in such cases, there are two schemes: to give a little attention to each guest (place an envelope with a surprise near his place, write a wish or attach an original small souvenir to a plate) or decorate the table with one common decorative element. In the second case, one rose in a glass or a gel candle is suitable.
For newlyweds
Furniture is usually located in the center of general attention, so that each of the guests can see the heroes of the occasion. To decorate the table for the newlyweds, you can do it yourself. The background is made out of fabric drapery or an arch on which the symbols of love are attached - rings, swans, hearts. They are often made of balloons, ribbons, natural flowers or light, neatly draped fabrics. Many people like inscriptions made for young people: “The mistress is Love” or “Advice and love!”.
For the mysterious atmosphere around the table for the wedding, you can "scatter" small lanterns, which, when dusk sets in, emphasize the romance of the event. For this purpose, small LED bulbs are suitable, neatly laid out in the form of a garland and attached to the wedding table with the help of threads.
The attention of guests is often attracted by the design of newlywed chairs. Their harmonious combination with the general ensemble is a prerequisite for perfect design. If there is a two-color tablecloth on the table, gently falling down to the floor with folds, then on the chairs wraps made of fabrics of a similar color scheme will look original. An elegant bow can be provided at the back, which, among other things, will help the cover not slip in one direction. Making out chairs for newlyweds, we should not forget also about furniture of witnesses and all guests.
Decoration Elements
In the design of the wedding event, decorated items should not be artsy, too voluminous or similar to a souvenir exhibition. The bride and groom look unnatural, periodically glancing at the guests because of tall bouquets or fruit vases. The dimensions of the highest decoration are recommended to be limited to 15 cm. Compositions constructed with this rule in mind are arranged horizontally or represented by individual small elements. An example is floral bouquets of small details placed in bowls and low glasses, specially prepared on a table with wicker baskets. Wide designer candles and wreaths of matching color ribbons look organically.
Flower Arrangements
Bouquets of flowers are usually placed on the table of the newlyweds. This is permissible only if there is so much space that the edges are completely free. It is there that they place tall (above 20 cm) vases. However, it is much more practical to get away from massive flower arrangements. Modern florists decorate the table of a young married couple with the following elements:
- Small bouquets made up of one large flower (for example, rose, gerbera or peony) and many small, or only small plants. In the spring, snowdrops and blueberries are suitable, in the summer - field daisies and forget-me-nots, in the fall - small chrysanthemums and other bright flowers. Always elegant and flawless lilies of the valley.
- One horizontal garland of flowers, located along the outer edge of the table. At its core, lilies can play the main role (it is recommended to choose a variety without a pungent odor), a bunch of small roses, large fluffy chrysanthemums. Look beautifully in a garland of carnations. In addition, they can look fresh without water for a considerable period of time.
- Rose petals, as if carelessly scattered on vertical surfaces. They can be fixed in advance on the cloth of the tablecloth, creating the illusion of smooth movement. The monochrome or multi-color "rain of petals" - personal preferences. It should be noted that such decorations have an unpleasant nuance: the petals quickly lose their freshness and become sloppy, so they are attached several hours before the event.
The decoration of the wedding table for the newlyweds must necessarily be complemented by floral elements in the guest areas. Indeed, the general harmony in design is a prerequisite for an ideal event. There should not be many flowers on the tables of guests. One rose in a glass or a small composition in a basket is enough.
Fabrics
Any option for decorating the wedding table of the bride and groom begins with the choice of a tablecloth. There are several modern approaches to this issue. Popular solutions are:
- A solemn and elegant, endlessly touching continuous lace fabric that elegantly hangs from the table in thick folds. The product can be white, dairy, pink, blue and other pastel colors.
- A combined tablecloth of two canvases: the lower - heavy and dense, for example, royal velvet, brocade, and the upper - light, airy - organza, nylon, transparent chiffon are suitable.
- Chic silk fabric covering the legs and softly continuing on the floor by 20-30 cm.
- A relatively new solution is a tablecloth with tulle assemblies. The base is smooth silk, the sides are densely planted strips of tulle, slightly resembling a pack of a ballerina performing a swan dance.
Lace can play the role of additional elements. So, they are often placed along the lower edge of the tablecloth or around the perimeter of the table top. Lace combinations attached to the fabric with narrow colored ribbons are interesting. Using an awl or a special thick needle, they are threaded into the holes in the canvas with an ordinary basting manual seam. This method is also beneficial in that you can pull up the tablecloth in any place, giving it volume. Ribbons are placed by tying them into original bows with hanging loops.This composition is chosen when the size of the tablecloth is much larger than the area of the table.
The color of the fabric for decor can be in tone with the overall color scheme or brightly and contrastingly different from it - this allows the design of the table of the newlyweds. The main thing is that the microzone looks compositionally finished.
Romantic ideas
Among the decorations for the wedding table with their own hands, options filled with romantic notes are of particular importance. There are many ideas in this direction:
- Decorations with the help of candles, which can be single or assembled into a compositional scheme, for example, exhibited in the form of a heart. This method requires special care due to fire hazard. Flammable objects must not be placed near lit candles.
- Carved themed decor from plywood, polystyrene or cardboard. You can cut out the voluminous words “Wedding”, “Mr & Mrs”, “Love is ...”, “With wishes of happiness” and others.
- Balloons in their variety. Light feathers, multi-colored shiny sequins, pieces of corrugated paper are placed inside the transparent balls that are fashionable today. Balloons filled with helium, attached, for example, to the backs of newlywed chairs, will create an atmosphere of celebration and love throughout the event.
The more sincere and prettier the wedding is, the more sincere it will look. Romantic notes can be present not only in the decoration of the table of the newlyweds. Often they resort to them, attaching photographs or friendly cartoons to the bride and groom, small funny stories of their acquaintance to the walls. The guests are remembered for photo collages or short videos dedicated to the topic of love of the couple.
Celebration colors
The table, decorated in the general gamut of the holiday, looks like a whole with a great wedding action. This solution allows you to withstand the selected topics, to unite guests and newlyweds with one idea. Examples of table decoration for newlyweds in one composition with a common ensemble are:
- tablecloth material that accurately repeats the dominant color in the room (blue, lime, orange, burgundy);
- 2-3-tone material is different, but located in the same color segment (blue tablecloth on the background of the blue room, orange table decor on the background of the peach decoration of the furniture for guests);
- compositional decoration, consisting of two or three fabrics, one of which matches the hue with a dominant tone, for example, combinations of pastel shades with white are elegant, while a bright accent can be created by combining blue with white, red with gold.
A white tablecloth always looks perfect and harmonizes with any color scheme.
If the wedding table in the same tone as the decor of the hall seems boring, it is permissible to add a special twist - to design it extraordinary, but elegant. For example, the room provides a beige color scheme, and furniture for the newlyweds - brown with white. Another harmonious combination is a light gray room and a turquoise table for young people.
Ideas for placing jewelry on a young table
Decorations of the wedding table, if properly positioned, can give it a special emotional character. One should start from the idea of creating a single ensemble, using elements in one stylistic direction. If it is decided to decorate the outer edge of the table with a wide multi-color garland, do not place other large flowers on top. It is permissible to “casually scatter” small decorative elements on the outer vertical surface of the tablecloth that are in harmony with the color of the garland.
The main focus of the bridal table may look like an elegant basket with fruits or flowers. Its height should not exceed 20 cm, and the width should not limit the location of dishes. Fruits for a basket should be chosen with a thick skin so that they look fresh until the end of the celebration.
Ikebans made for a wedding do-it-yourself look good. For their preparation, fresh flowers, natural material, ribbons, beads, mesh and other decor are used.In tone with the main emphasis on the table, it is recommended to place small decorations. Silver (possibly made of slightly blackened silver) napkin holders and candlesticks harmonize well with fresh flowers. Arrange such additional details should be elegant, but simple - to prepare special mini-napkins, make pillows or hearts from fabric.
The original decor of the autumn table of the newlyweds with their own hands can be done using a pumpkin. To do this, carefully cut off the top, use a spoon and a knife to select all the contents and dry the finished “vase”. To prevent the flowers from drying out quickly, you can put a wet washcloth on the bottom. Ideally in this embodiment, irises, sunflowers, asters, chrysanthemums will look. You can turn such a composition into an "autumn fantasy", for this put ears in it, diluting them with branches with clusters of viburnum.
Do-it-yourself workshop on creating flower arrangements
