Never underestimate the power of wedding table linens! Your table decorations will have a huge effect on the way that your carefully-planned wedding designs come across to your guests. Whether you realize it or not, perfecting the basics of your table settings is one of the most important things you can do to prepare for your special day, according to My Wedding wedding planning advice. Fancy decoration accessories will mean nothing if they aren’t well coordinated with your basic table linens!
Before you get too bogged down in the details, consider the following basics to set the tone and atmosphere.
Tablecloths
This may seem too basic for concern, but it’s actually impossible to skip over such an important decision. A tablecloth, if you choose to use one, will serve as your base for the rest of the table’s decorations. Choosing the right material and color or pattern will be critical for the success of your table design. However, your job is far from done after you’ve decided on a set of tablecloths.
Napkins
They’re more than functional! Sure, you’ll need napkins so that your guests can wipe their hands and dab politely at their mouths, but your napkins can also be used as a critical element of your tables’ pre-dinner presentation.
Table Runners
Table runners can absolutely transform the look and feel of your table decorations. A boldly-patterned table runner will stand out against a plain tablecloth, for example, or you may choose to tone down a tablecloth’s busier pattern with a solid table runner. Plus, a table runner can provide a great foundation for other table accessories such as flowers or candles.
Don’t know where to start? Wedessence suggests taking hints from the season. For example, pick bright colors for spring and summer to bring a hint of the weather inside with you or become one with nature during an outdoor wedding.
