Drunk in love

Dazzle with patterns
Forget the white, the neutrals, and the pastels. Use fabrics in bold colors and vibrant patterns to instantly elevate your big day into a wedding to remember. Table linens in geometric prints make for an eye-catching décor that guests would want to emulate in their own events.
Succulents over flowers

Make use of contrast

Play with pink

Winter wonderland
Having a wedding during the coldest season is memorable enough, but you can upgrade your winter wedding by going for a luxurious tablescape. Go for richly patterned tablecloths with garland-like swirls that evoke wintry landscapes, and pair them with opulent, gold-rimmed china, silver cutlery, and etched crystal stemware.
Easily elegant
If you’re envisioning a touch of elegance for your wedding even with a budget, then opting for to-the-floor textured linens is your best bet. These fabrics give a tactile depth to your tablescape, even with sparing décor.
Laze in a lounge

Orchids for days
Whether you’re planning a destination wedding in the tropics, or bringing the tropical to your venue, going all out with an orchid-covered archway or gorgeous canopy creates a wow factor that’s hardly matched in wedding decorations.
Inspired by the elements
Wedding table decorations can also draw inspiration from the surroundings. Think table signs made of wood, written on chalkboard, and crafted from twigs, seashells or pine cones. These decorative items are instantly memorable and, since they’re personalized, meaningful too.
Let there be light
Make memories clear as day by planning adequate romantic during your big day. According to BBJ Linen, you can hang lanterns from barn rafters, or even string café lights in trees or along a ceiling line for a truly shabby chic wedding to remember.
Share a throwback
Decorate your wedding with vintage trinkets like old leather books, rustic lanterns, and jewelry boxes that add a touch of nostalgia to your romantic affair. Paired with vintage china, your mementos become your guests’ too.
Flowers in the air

Vintage weddings are all about drama. What can be more dramatic than flowers in the air? Place large, circular bouquets in tall crystal vase toppers to make your flowers look like they’re floating over your wedding tables.
Nature as fabric

A day in the park

For a more informal celebration, you can try a picnic wedding reception. Wooden farm tables and benches make are casual seating arrangements that keep guests at ease. You can even spruce up the tablescape by adding wooden flower boxes as your centerpiece.
Go Victorian

Bring in the height of vintage sensibility by going for a Victorian-themed wedding. Deep purple flowers in your table setting underscored by jacquard cloth emphasize a sublime aesthetic that pairs well with jewel-toned flatware, and gold-toned cutlery.
For the nostalgia
Since we’re talking about memories, create new ones by using vintage modes of transportation as set pieces in your wedding. Display a vintage automobile at the reception that serves as a topic for long conversations, and a backdrop for family and friends to take pictures with.
Shape of the heart

Traditional is still rad
If you’re not too keen on going outside-the-box, you can still enjoy a traditional wedding that everyone will remember – just don’t forget to emphasize the details. BBJ Linen shares that pristine white linens, etched crystal, and petite floral arrangements do the task of honoring tradition in a thoroughly contemporary manner.
