BLUE TABLE SETTING
Time flies so fast. Even in wedding fashion, wedding experts are surprised that 2009 is almost over and it is time again to conjure up new ideas and trends for the upcoming weddings for next year. Wedding table decorations are some of the most important aspects that wedding experts pour much effort into conceptualization and planning about it. So what’s the forecast? Here are some decoration ideas for wedding tables for next year.
Orange, Pink, Yellow: 2010 Color Palette
Things that are festive and bright are the center of attention when it comes to weddings for the year 2010. Pastels and light shades are also okay but they are not as big as vibrant shades such as orange, pink and yellow. These are the main hues that you can use for decorating your wedding tables and the whole event as well.
Recycled Table Centerpieces: Economical and Hot
More and more people are getting into the bandwagon of recycling. It is not any different for weddings for next year as recycled table centerpieces are becoming such a hot item among many couples. These centerpieces are not only trendy but more importantly, they are economical and eco-friendly.
Artificial Handmade Flowers: Takes Ugly out of Artificial
We always say that fresh flowers are more beautiful than artificial ones. In fact, some people would say outright that artificial flowers are unsightly but if they see these exquisite handmade flowers made of wonderful paper material, they would probably change their minds. These are intricate pieces of art, which are great to use as table centerpieces. These would surely amaze the guests attending your big day.
Edible Centerpieces: Hitting Two Birds with One Stone
One example of such kind of wedding centerpiece is the miniature wedding cake (replica of the actual wedding cake). This is a festive wedding table decoration and centerpiece that can be lit up for ambiance and be taken home afterwards as a wedding favor.
Couple’s Photos for Centerpiece: Nostalgic and Classy
The coming 2010, couples can make use of their old photos as wedding table decorations. They can make use of childhood photos, photos of vacations together, and photos with their respective families. Not only does this decoration make a classy centerpiece, they can also keep the guests entertained while waiting for the reception to start. After the big event, the photo frames can be used to decorate your new home. Talk about practicality!
Linens with Patterns: Plain Table Covers are Out
For 2010, you would see more and more couples making use of patterned tablecloths for their wedding tables. Linens with floral designs and paisley patterns are especially hot for this coming year.
Origami Folded Table Napkins: Get Creative with the Napkin
Who said the napkin should just sit there? Napkins can also be a way to decorate the table if you make use of your artistic skills and fold them into nice origami artworks. These origami napkins are very trendy this 2010.
Many wedding experts agree that 2010 is a good year to get married. It is the end of a decade but for couples, it is a start of their new life together as husband and wife.
About Elaine
Great suggestions for wedding favours. I especially like the idea of brining in colour to the tables using the blue umbrellas in glasses. Very unique, yet effective.
