Reception tables with personality often make a huge statement!
Have you thought about how your wedding reception tables will look? Napkin folds, place cards, menu cards and centerpieces are only a few of the decisions you will have to make when carefully planning out your table design. First Class Weddings specializes in assisting our clients with little details like these…and so much more.
Forest Green, Chestnut Brown, and Crimson are only a few of the options you see here. We hope that these inspirations will get you to thinking about your reception table set-up & decor.

Your reception tables options are endless…
Playing around with your ideas at home can often give you a more visual idea of how you would like your reception tables to look. Just keep in mind that your linens, chargers and china may be limited to the venue you have chosen (unless you want to pay extra to provide them yourself).
The only “Seal” to look for in the Wedding industry!

Table Cards: Name your table
Designating tables at your wedding will ensure that your caterer knows what table a person requesting coffee is sitting at, it also allows families sit together as well as ensuring that your father in law doesn’t sit next to your father (if they don’t get along). Here are the basics when planning out “who” sits at “who’s” table.
1. Draw a map of your tables: If you have 100 guests and are seating 10 at each table, then draw 10 tables.
2. Select a name to put on your table cards: Be creative! You don’t have to choose numbers you can choose flowers, names of islands, places you’ll visit, special dates, tv shows or anything unique and custom to you as a couple.
3. Provide one place card for each person (children too) that is attending your wedding. You will need to have a table set up to display the place cards at the entrance of the wedding reception. Your place cards can be alphabetically displayed in ice sculptures, in sand, on trees etc. so be creative! Just don’t forget about “mother nature” at outdoor weddings (or they could fly away).
4. Print the table card names on the back of each place card. This way when a guest retrieves their place card they will know which table they are sitting at.
5. Another option is that you could display the place cards directly at the table instead of the registration table. Then all you need is to display a table seating chart (alphabetical names in a frame under the table name headings) on the registration table and this will lead people to their table.

Centerpieces: Keeping it Simple!
Brides no longer have to break the bank to get a beautiful centerpieces. Here are some cost saving tips without sacrificing quality or elegance.
- Low Centerpieces – these are half the price of taller ones
- Add the Greens - this cuts down on the amount of flowers you’ll need
- Use Church Flowers at your Reception – This prevents ordering separate arrangements
- Choose Flowers with Large Blooms – Hydrangea and peonies are a perfect example
- Select Flowers in Season – Flowers that are readily available cost less
- Try to stay away from Holidays – These are busier times so flowers cost up to 30% more
- Keep it simple – submerged flower strands in water, floating candles and other simple centerpieces can limit the need for many flowers at all and can significantly cut costs

Hawaiian Favor Boxes
Hawaiian favor boxes are a great idea! You can fill them with individually wrapped candy, chocolates, votive candles, jewelry, sand globes, soap, cookie cutters, key chains, paper weights etc. Tie the outside with a chiffon ribbon that matches your wedding color theme and make it extra special by adding a wine glass charm and thank you note. The greatest thing about this little favor box is that it’s different, you can customize them, they come in two colors and sizes (light and dark), they only cost $1 to $2 each and the Hawaiian favor boxes are environment friendly.
