Show me your decor!!!

Taylor, on September 18, 2019 at 1:21 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 1 16

I'm at a loss here. I haven't been to many wedding so I'm unsure of exactly what I need. I know what I'm doing for centerpieces but what is needed other than that? I was going to get an embellished gold mirror to write on as a welcome sign, there are wine barrels that will have floral arrangements on them, and I know that I need some type of decor for the gift/card table, but what else do I need? Feel free to post photos of your decor! I'm trying to minimize costs as much as possible. Thanks!

    Table numbers & seating chart/table cards. signage if you're doing signature drinks. signage if you're doing a guestbook or anything similar to a guestbook.

    I think you can have as much or as little decor as you want. I'm following along bc I know I'm probably forgetting something too lol.

    Our venue has such character on it's own we are afraid to do too much decor, plus we're on a budget. We are doing small centerpieces, table number, favors, and guest names on the tables. We will have a cake table, our Mr and Mrs table will have vases on either side that we can plop two of my bridesmaids bouquets in right after the ceremony and a Mr and Mrs gold sign in between. A card box table with a few flowers sprinkled on the table and some sort of guest book. Our ceremony is at sundown under two trees and in front of a fireplace. The trees have fairy lights wrapped around them and there are string lights overhead. We're adding a few hanging bulb terrariums with fairy lights inside as a backdrop. That's it.

    We used the same garlands that we used for the ceremony to use as the reception centerpieces. We had enough garland to use it for our cake table too and then used our bouquets to add to the accent tables. Our florist added a few table top Christmas trees and our venue added a huge Christmas tree decorated with our colors of burgundy and gold. Outside we had a fire pit with adirondack chairs so we added cute lumbar pillows with reindeer and then carried that reindeer motif inside with our table number/sign holders and cake topper. We also added a sprig of red berries at each place setting.

    All of this is gorgeous. Were the greenery runners real and what was the specific plant called? We've been looking at seeded eucalyptus but it's so expensive!

    Thank you so much! Yes, all our flowers were real. Initially we wanted to do eucalyptus but with the size of the tables & chargers & water glasses & candles, it would have been too thick. So our florist suggested Italian Ruscus instead! We paid $120 per 40 foot runner.

    We have centerpieces for the round guest tables and I am going to place mine and the MOH's bouquet in a vase on display somewhere as well. We have a different look for the sweetheart table - a runner and more candles - because it is rectangular. We will have a seating chart (old frame + poster from staples) and a card cage. None of my flowers are real, so we saved thousands on a florist.

    We had pretty simple decor too. Our outdoor ceremony space was beautiful and required absolutely no decor, so we didn't do anything there, but for our indoor reception space we did a few signs, string lights, a garland and wreath for the big focal point fireplace, and simple candle and rose petal centerpieces. I made some very simple wine bottle floral arrangements for our guest book, escort card, and gift tables.

    For our ceremony, we had a simple set up and for our reception, it was a great gatsby theme.

    We are doing a Forest Wedding! Our colors are sunset orange and green so it will be very subtle like so. As far as decorating goes, we're just going to have tons of flowers, greenery, and centerpieces!

    We are doing rustic/military. So i'm doing a ton of ammo cans (half the centerpieces with flowers) probably line the aisle with some as well. some wine bottle decor, wine cork decor, lanterns, wooden crates, barrels.
