Creating the perfect table setting for your event doesn’t have to feel like rocket science! Follow The Yes Girls formula to thoughtfully combine textures, tones, and other vital design elements to make a lasting impression.
1. Choose Your Vibe
The Yes Girls always begins crafting gorgeous events by first understanding our beautiful couples and their overall dream vibe. Focus on your vision for the day, the colors you want, the feel, patterns to be incorporated, etc. Hop on Instagram, Pinterest, or even your favorite home decor store for some inspiration.
2. Introduce Textures
Enhance your dining experience with custom napkins featuring printed guest initials, initials of the newlyweds or elegant tassels, use lace as a tablecloth, or layer multiple table runners to create a look of delicate luxury.
3. Add a Focal Point
Bringing a focal point to your table setting always unites and elevates your look. This can be a a framed photo, candelabras. or fresh seasonal florals!
4. Light It Up
Not only does lighting set the mood, but it can add such beauty to a space. The flickering of live candle light is a must, and can look many different ways depending on your vision. Use thick and sturdy pillar candles or more delicate taper candles. Place your candle lighting in varied height candlesticks/holders to mix heights and add a dynamic visual appeal. Use colored or hand painted candle sticks and even mix patterns within your event’s color palette. Who knew candles could do so much?!
5. Thoughtfully Curate Your Menu
A table setting wouldn’t exist if there was no food! Thoughtfully curate your menu remembering that you can incorporate bites that also serve as captivating table decor. Place these beautiful culinary creations on a nice tray or platter to further elevate your look.
6. Add a Personal Touch
The Yes Girls LOVE a personal touch. Custom is what we do! Incorporating something meaningful to you, your love, and your relationship makes the most memorable table setting. Consider custom napkins, themed desserts, or even photos of your favorite memories together to complete this thoughtful curation of details.
