Vary Your Designs

Place two or three designs throughout your reception tables for a visually dynamic space that’s still consistent. This will create lots of visual texture throughout the room. Using one centerpiece style for each table may be consistent, but it's not as exciting.

Keep Things Visual

Make sure your guests will be able to see each other no matter where they’re seated at the table. Use either low centerpieces or tall tapers, candelabras or topiaries.

Use Glamorous Vessels

The vessels are as important as the blooms that fill them. If you’re having a vintage wedding, go for antiqued decor. If your having a beach or outdoor wedding, keep your centerpieces light and airy.

Make Them Sturdy

It's inevitable that guests will bump into reception tables after the party gets rolling, so make sure your centerpieces are sturdy, especially if they're taller.
