Table mock up for reception

Christina, on February 28, 2019 at 4:53 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 5
Hi hired a wedding planner to assist in planning my wedding. We are going to do a visual “mock-up” of the table linens and center peices. The table settings will not be there for the mock up as they are being provided by the caterer. They are contemporary white plates with real silver wear. For those of you that have done a mock up with a planner did they also find a way to bring the place settings as well to see the “entire look”? I’m not sure if I’m just getting nit picking and it’s normal not to have all that there? Or do most have the place settings there for a mock up?

Thanks
christina

    I wouldn't expect my planner to have the exact place settings that my caterer is using. If she has some supplies of her own, she might try to provide something similar just to give you a better idea, but I can't imagine her contacting the caterer to borrow a place setting.

    I'd just email or call your planner and ask her, then if she doesn't have them, one of you can bring a plain white plate set from home so you can get the vision!

    I would assume this varies depending on what the planner normally provides for services/their connections. I can’t imagine a planner borrowing the exact place setting from a caterer.

    I went to our local event rental place with my wedding planner and played around with mock ups.

    Doesn’t seem realistic if the pieces are from different providers. Our rental company sent me a pic of their gold chargers & gold flatware on a wood table in their showroom but because the linens came from a different company that company mailed me swatches. I think what your planner is providing is good.
