Attention to height and angle

Avoid very tall floral arrangements or ornate decorations, as these will Ideally, nothing should get in the way of the conversation. Also, whatever decoration or centerpiece you choose, make sure it can be seen from a 360-degree angle. That is, picture frames are no good in this case and, for example, if you are going to put a label on a recycled bottle, make sure it is all around it and not just in the center.

A touch of color

Round tables with white tablecloths are a bit old-fashioned, so break away from that classic scheme. bringing colour to your tables whether through the table linen, the wedding decorations or the chairs.

In fact, the sheathed chairs were also left behind And why not go for chairs in different colours? Depending on the style of celebration, some ideas will work better than others. For example, a vase with fruit will be perfect for a summer wedding. Or if you're getting married in a glam ceremony, go for gold napkins.

Non-round elements

If they don't want to that the whole looks too circular You can make a break by opting for square or rectangular wedding table centerpieces, including glass containers with candles, wooden crates with wild flowers or mounted books. This way, the tables will look visually more attractive and not so round. Now, they can also be ornaments with other shapes, such as lanterns, pentagonal pots with succulents, candelabras, orvintage watering cans, among other ideas.

Centres with levels

And if you want to use more than one element in your centerpiece, can play with the different heights For example, use a base, whether it is a log, a glass surface or a tray, to mount decorated bottles, candles, tin cans or bird cages on it, among other ideas. It can be two or three elements that share the same aesthetic.

In general, at the round tables the table runner does not look very good So focus your energy and the attention of your guests on the main decoration.

Table markers

The markers that at first were reduced to a card with a number on it, nowadays are have diversified into dozens of shapes and styles The important thing, in the case of round tables, is not to turn your back on one side of the guests. For example, if you are going to identify the table with a CD, try to write it on both sides.

Less is more

Finally, since everything is more condensed on round tables than, for example, on rectangular tables, the ideal is to do not overload with elements Therefore, if you already have a centerpiece, table marker and colored glassware, make sure that the menu is discreet and avoid, for example, folding the napkins in original shapes. The less is more concept also works at the tables and in the round tables it is even more appreciated.

With these tips you will not only show off your groom's suit and wedding dress, but also the wedding arrangements that you will display on the tables, one of the places where your guests will spend the most time.
