I can't bring myself to care about this, so mine will be the white tablecloth that the venue provides and maybe flowers from the ceremony if someone else remembers :-)
Mine is a coral table linen with a flower linen design in white placed over it. The cake stand it turquoise and my cake is white. My bouquet will be on the table, and then the grooms cake may also be on the table, haven't decided that yet.
It will probably be the same linens of all the other tables (black on the bottom, white on top) or maybe we will switch them. I will tell the BMs (and me of course) to set their bouquets down on the table. Good? Who knows?
Sure mine was fairly simple. I used the same color linen as my tables and then just had candles around it with my toss bouquet. I wanted my cake stand to be the focal point.
Truth be told the only thing I cared about was that the linen be red like our sweetheart table. I left it up to the venue coordinator and this is what she came up with. I was super happy as I had forgotten to purchase a cake stand (didn't think about it until after I saw the pics). She never even mentioned it.
I ordered one table centerpiece from the florist, and since we didn't use it on our sweetheart table, we put it on the cake table. (Dinner table center pieces we made ourselves)
It was in the corner of the room with the buffet table, appetizers and bar. I used different colored linens on the food tables vs the dining tables.
We used the same color linen as the regular tables. We decorated it with rose petals, and our bouquets. Those bling tea light holders were created by me and some family members. We made over 150 to have on all the tables.
Here's my cake table. I had absolutely nothing to do with the cake stuff. I told my cake baker (who I did not choose and who I never met in person because I was a horrible bride!) I wanted to bring some beach to my wedding since I couldn't have my wedding at the beach. And voila. Beachy cake with brown sugar sand.
This is what I'm thinking of doing for my wedding!

We went very simple. A photo, a cake, and utensils. We had a seperate dessert table, but for some reason the only photo of the very long table is one of the corner, and it's over-exposed.
Rose petals, candles, my toss bouquet, and pictures of us.
I realized only after seeing the pictures quite a few times that our baker forgot the cake stand. NO biggie though. I feel like it would have looked out of place, having a silver cake stand so i'm glad it was forgotten.

Mine was pretty simple. I didn't have alot of room to decorate. Plates & forks were brought out after we cut. We had 200 cupcakes!
