To help the bride in search of inspiration for creating a standout tablescape at her reception, here are stunning table setting ideas from our Real BB Weddings.

 

 

Evoke the ambiance of a whimsical garden by anchoring a long table with a garland made of blooms and greenery. Keep the tabletop looking light and festive with white tableware complemented by a menu with exquisite floral design, pastel green linen, and gold silverware.

 

 

Mismatched dinnerware has vintage appeal, and works especially well in a cozy and romantic venue like Brooklyn Winery.

 

 

Use table number cards to say something about yourself. This couple expressed their love of travel by decorating the card with an illustration of the SkyPoint Observation Deck in Surfer’s Paradise, Australia.

 

 

This couple forgot number cards altogether and marked each table with a street sign denoting a place of significance in their journey together.

 

 

To create a look of timeless elegance, tie silverware with satin ribbon in a color that complements the tableware.

 

 

This couple used their wedding favor to add personality to the table. Chocolate bars with customized packaging were placed at each seat to greet guests as they sat down.

 

 

Make your guests feel extra special by topping off their place setting with a handwritten name card.

 

 

Complementing a vibrant centerpiece with equally bold linens allows the colors to really pop and casts a joyful atmosphere for guests to enjoy.

 

 

Blue Hill at Stone Barns is the perfect venue if your wedding décor style is natural and romantic. Proving that details really do matter, a delicate napkin accent made from a sprig of fresh lavender and rosemary wrapped in twine looks absolutely lovely.

 

 

A round dinner menu placed atop a gold patterned plate creates a presentation that radiates classic elegance.

 

 

Do you want to make the dinner menu of your garden-themed wedding unforgettable? Use the blossoms of the table centerpiece as inspiration to create a floral design border.

 

 

You can never go wrong by keeping things simple and classic with white linen. For a subtle splash of color, choose one shade from your floral décor and use it to embellish the menu and table number cards.

 

 

The University Club is a venue marked by history and tradition. In perfect harmony with the dark, rich interior, this tablescape presents striking copper-rimmed plates and silverware illuminated by taper candles to create an ambiance of grand sophistication.
