Everyone has their own personal favorites, so after years of setting up many different weddings and events, we have come up with our favorites and we want to share them with you!
Arches: Nothing beats classic white curtains pulled back on a ceremony arch. If you want a little more character or color, we suggest adding a chandelier or some floral arrangements! There are so many options that go along with curtains that we have decided it is our number one choice when it comes to decorating your arch!
Draping: Whether it be in a tent, a hotel space, an outdoor pavilion or a magical event center; we love zig-zagging draping for the most elegant of looks!
Linens: Our go-to linen would have to be anything with color, texture, or shine. That's why we are in love with the sequin linens. When the light hits them in just the right way, Oh Man! It's GORGEOUS!
Lighting: You can never go wrong with cafe lights. With endless ways to drape, hang and organize, these are a must have at any venue!
Centerpieces: It's no secret that we love decor, but our all time favorites are anything paired with candles. They are so universal, romantic and can be used in a multitude of ways.
Are you wondering if your wedding ideas will all come together to create that breathtaking image in your mind?
Don't worry, We've Got It Covered!
Here are 5ways to guarantee a great wedding look you are sure to love!
1. Pick a color scheme
2. Find a backdrop
This can be something unique from your venue like a big window, art on the wall, stonework, or a big fireplace.
If nothing stands out...Choose your own statement like this taupe backdrop!
3. Add dimension
Use different heights and lengths in your wedding decor to create depth and visual appeal.
Another way to add dimension is a contrast color. Nothing too fancy or flamboyant (unless that's totally your cup of tea!), but something simple, like these greenery arrangements. It keeps your room looking lively and lifted rather than flat and dull.
3. Pick your head table style, linen, and chair
To create the finished look a textured velvet linen was added with a Chiavari chair for the perfect sweetheart table!
4. Add your centerpieces!
This is where you can be the most c r e a t i v e ! Put together an array of different items in your same color scheme, incorporate your contrast color, include your table number and maybe a few pictures and viola! You have a great centerpiece!
5. Lastly, put it all together and simply admire
Another great tip to make sure that your ideas come out flawless is to make your own mock table. Set it up and put together your centerpiece trying different things until you come to find something you absolutely love.
Trends - do you take part in them? Or do you do your own thang? Whether you are all about the hype or want to run the other way, we are here to tell you what we think will be making an appearance in 2019.
1. Let's Talk AboutCOLOR-
Twenty Eighteen was all about blush and taupe hues, pastels and greenery. But let me tell ya, 2019 has arrived and has come in full swing. As wedding plans are being established in these winter months, an appearance of bold and moody hues are being incorporated into dresses, flowers, decor and more.
As greenery is here to stay another year, we are seeing deep burgundy, intense turquoise, rich emerald and lots of navy sprinkled throughout the wedding day. These bold colors are often paired with soft tones like taupe or champagne accents.
2. It’s a blast from the past. The 90’s velvet is BACK! The smooth, comfy texture to the shine of the threads, velvet is becoming a headliner this wedding season.
Along with velvet making an appearance, we are also seeing a rise in chiffon fabric. Draped on tables, on an arch or on the ceiling, chiffon is soft and romantic and we are loving everything about it and its versatility.
3. Personalized - Out with the traditions, in with the unique.
In 2019 we are expecting to see a twist from your typical white ball gown, big princess wedding. Making a shift to smaller, more intimate weddings we will see couples matching their decor to their personality and character. Incorporating more activities, and things for guests to do, it will feel like a close family gathering.
4. Trendy Modern Venues -
Industrial spaces are in the running to compete with the rustic charm. As outdoor weddings will always remain popular, barns and vineyards will have to share the wedding spotlight with some modern industrial spaces.
Flowers have been a part of weddings since the beginning, but the use of them has transformed immensely. Although flowers are still used on tables today, we are finding them hung from backdrops, chandeliers, the ceiling, floral walls and much much more. We aren’t complaining because who doesn’t love the smell of fresh flowers filling the air?
These are the essentials when it comes to adding anything on top of, near, or around your reception tables for the most outstanding tables yet!
