Tips for Choosing The Perfect Wedding Centerpieces

Wedding Centerpieces, why are they so important? A large part of planning the perfect wedding comes down to planning the perfect wedding reception. While the ceremony itself is the star of the day, the reception is the much anticipated after party and that’s when the real celebrations take place. When couples plan their wedding reception a great deal of attention is put on the food and entertainment, which is as it should be. But décor plays a large part in setting the stage for a memorable wedding reception, and it’s easy to overlook those little things that can help to add a distinctive touch to your own wedding celebration. Such as your Wedding Centerpieces.

Why the Concern on Wedding Centerpieces?

During the reception, your guests will be spending much of their time seated around dining tables. When they are not dancing or moving through the receiving lines, guests will be seated at table eating, drinking, and generally enjoying the company of friends and family. Wedding centerpieces give couples a wonderful opportunity to put their own personalities into the décor of the venue. Wedding centerpieces can take many different forms, from flower arrangements to a cluster of mirrors and candles; from fruit baskets to elegantly arranged tea cakes. The only limit is your imagination.

What to Consider

There are a number of things couples need to consider when choosing their wedding centerpieces. First, and foremost, is budget. Decide how many tables will be needed for your reception, and how much money you can allow for each centerpiece.  Consider how many guests will be seated at each table and how much space can be given to the centerpiece. Try to avoid centerpieces that take up too much space, and steer clear of designs that may obstruct your guest’s view. If your reception is in a dimly lit venue, you may want to include candles or tea lights in your centerpieces to create accent lighting at your guest’s tables.

Coordinate With Your Venue

Before settling on any final design choices for your wedding centerpieces, be sure to check with your venue. Some venues have restrictions. You should also confirm set-up times with venue, to ensure that you have ample time beforehand to set up. Also don’t forget to find out who is responsible for clean up after your reception.
