After choosing their venue for their wedding. The bride and groom begin the fantastic task of designing the wedding tables that their guests are going to be seated whilst having their wedding feast.
This time and thought process will lead to a fairy tale wedding feast. Ask the venue owners if your tables are round or square. Then you can start with the numbers of guests to be seated at each table.
Once you have on numbers for each tables, the hard task of who is seating beside who begins.
Rope in parents for this task and don’t panic, on the day everyone will put their differences aside for the one day and wont cause any trouble on your big wedding day.
Once you have decided on your seating plan. You can decide on which card holders you will like your guests to see when they take their seats at the table.This is when brides and grooms can explore all exciting avenues.
At a wedding recently the bride and groom named their tables after an Italian city.
The reason was that they became engaged in Milan in Italy.
This was a great ice breaker at the table as the bride and groom had mixed the guests from each family and each other friends. All the guests began talking about their favourite Italian cities and why they are liked. Another ice breaker at the table was a wedding favor camera.
This camera was there so each guest could take a photo of each other at the tables and later on the bride and groom could develop the photos and pass a copy onto their guests.
Brides can choose to have a simple but classy place card with the guests name on the table. Or the newlyweds can decide on a place holder which also acts as a wedding favor.
A new trend for this year is crystals for the table top in place of the tradition confetti.
Party poppers are always a favourite with guests young and old. Keep your hands over your ears as each guest starts to pop their popper favor.
Another ice breaker is a wedding favor trivia game. This can be simply made by the bride and groom as a diy wedding favor on questions relating to the bride and groom. Ie where did they meet? Where are thy going on honeymoon? Etc.
If your wedding happens to be on a lottery night recent trends in wedding favors is for the bride and groom to place a lottery ticket inside a diy wedding envelope. Each guest will be glued to the lotto results that evening and hopefully a winner may surface.
Good luck on deciding on your DIY wedding table decorations and DIY Wedding Favours for your upcoming wedding.
