Wedding Decorating Tips

Centrepieces are in important part of your wedding table statement. Along with the food, service and entertainment, a room décor can make or break a good wedding ambience.

Choose something that reflects both your personalities, that also ties in with the rest of your colours and/or theming.

If you are having round tables, consider something that your guests will be able to see through to talk to each other and if you are using long rectangle tables, consider having maybe a main centerpiece in the middle and smaller centerpieces down either end to balance the table.

Decor items such as mirror bases are a simple yet very affective method used to create a gorgeous reflective lighting affect with lots of tealight candles placed on them around your main centerpiece.

Collect photos, articles, cut outs, samples, etc. that interest you and collate them for future reference, comparison and showing to your coodinator/decorators.

Choose your colours early in the planning stage. Try and choose a colour that is timeless, rather than a current fad, as you will have your wedding photos forever to remember.

Be bold and personalise your ideas. Don’t let friends and family influence your ideas or talk you out of something you have your heart set on. Express these ideas to your decorator so that they can ensure your touches are in the planning process.

Invest in something like a folder or notebook that can hold your cutouts, etc. to use as a "wedding planner" so you have all your notes, contacts, samples, etc. in one place.
