Although a wedding is all about commitment and everlasting love, for many people the decorations is what makes the ceremony beautiful and memorable. Sourcing for outdoor decorations, table centerpieces and church decoration is never an easy task. Here are some great inspirations for wedding decorations that can be quite helpful.
Use mirrors
You can have several mirrors placed strategically around the reception venue to make your venue look bigger and make the most of your decorations. This works perfectly particularly while using sparkly accessories like crystals, candles and lights.
Decorate with food
The menu of the day can add a lot of color and excitement to your wedding especially the arrangement of food on platters. Assorted and huge candy jars on dessert bar generate a joyful mood while beautiful trays, rustic bread and fresh cheese can instantaneously give the party an organic feeling. You can also combine huge platters with tall stands of food to create a striking display.
Feathers
Feathers are trendy and popularly used nowadays because of their softness and femininity. They are also edgy and more modern than flowers. Feathers can be integrated into the table arrangements, your hair accessories and bouquet and may be attached to escort cards. Make your decorations quite unique by hanging circle of feathers instead of chandeliers. Feathers help to achieve an elegant and classy look.
Fabric covering
You can incorporate outdoor blinds especially at the reception for your guests to enjoy the atmosphere without feeling the strong sunrays. If the outdoor blinds go well with the theme colors, you can have a very romantic atmosphere. Get creative with the outdoor fabrics to create an intimate and calm atmosphere.
Centerpieces
If you like tall and spectacular centerpieces use tall candelabras and have just one flowered garland warped against a stem. On the other hand, you can have an attractive arrangement of flowers in huge martini glasses so that guests can converse beneath them. You can create effective yet simple centerpieces by placing a bouquet of roses in vases and scatter rose petals of the same color on the tables. Use taller vases for areas like the bar, the square arrangement is best for dining tables.
Tie ribbons
Seat covers are very expensive and very difficult to make. Get attractive wide ribbons and tie on the back of each chair to spruce up the atmosphere and add a touch of class instead of buying seat covers. The use of ribbons is an economical alternative when compared to fancy covers. Get some friends to help you tie the ribbons.
Furniture
To add some personality to your venue, you can consider borrowing or hiring furniture pieces that replicate the decoration theme of your wedding. This includes, some contemporary couches for the lounge and the bar area will look great with vintage tables. A total adjustment of the furniture is not necessary just several well placed furniture pieces will create a great impression.
Colored glass
Colored glass is not often used for decorating weddings but it has a striking effect. Use colored wine and champagne glasses and colored vases for the floral arrangement. Place small colored glasses with internal tea light on each reserved place to create a romantic glow.
Weddings are elegant and big ceremonies, but they don’t have to be very expensive. With some creativity and knowhow, creating a romantic and relaxing atmosphere for your important day isn’t that difficult.
