Wedding Table Decorations And Centrepiece Ideas

Photography by Claire Penn Photography

If you and your guests are going to be seated for a while during your wedding breakfast, you might as well have some incredible wedding table decorations to look at, no?! We've taken the hard work out of finding all the best centrepiece decorations for you by putting them in this incredible round-up. The only hard part is choosing one!


Candleabra Wedding Table Decorations

There's a reason candelabras have been gracing weddings everywhere. Their tall stature makes it easy for guests to talk across tables, as well as providing the wow factor. Available in a plethora of finishes to complement all weddings styles including metallic and painted. Whether you adorn them with flowers or add candles, the ambience is sure to be romantic and elegant.

Taper Candle Wedding Table Decorations

Single candlesticks and taper candles most definitely deserved a mention on their own. Litter your table with charity finds or different coloured waxes in your chosen colour scheme and the results are PIN-tastic! We love this pink inspiration featuring twisted and motif candles.

Plant Wedding Table Decorations

There's no denying we adore flowers at weddings, but, we also love potted plants! Not only can you be adventurous with different heights and ceramic pots, but their eco advantage is a huge plus for us. They are often a more budget-friendly option too, especially if you don't mind getting your hands dirty and growing them yourself. And once the day is over you and your green-fingered guests can take pots home and replant them as a lovely reminder of the day.

Tableware Wedding Table Decorations

Wedding table decorations aren't all about the centrepieces. Your chosen table and glassware can all have a huge impact on the overall aesthetic of your reception table. Consider charger plates, coloured goblets and patterned china. As well as tablecloths, napkins and cutlery to tie your theme together.

Flower Wedding Table Decorations

Flower centrepieces are probably the most traditional choice when it comes to wedding table decorations. But, is it any wonder when the possibilities are endless. Find a talented florist and let their skills shine through. They'll be able to advise you on the longevity of each bloom, as well as those with a fragrant scent.

Favour Wedding Table Decorations

Wedding favours not only provide guests with a thank you for attending your day, but can also be a great addition to your tablescape decor. One of our favourite ideas we've seen is personalised tambourine favours. We've also seen food and alcohol miniatures, and love how each one ties in with the couples theme.

Runner Wedding Table Decorations

Table runners can consist of a garland of foliage, a sequin table cloth or our most innovative idea to date, a row of coloured gumdrops! Perfect for trestle and banquet tables running from end to end, and even better when they cascade over the edge like Beck and Tim's vintage book pages table runner.

Log and Crate Wedding Table Decorations

Natural wood tree slices are a perfect way to elevate your centrepiece. Be that a plethora of bottles filled with flower stems, a pitcher jug or even a teapot. Perfect for rustic weddings, and although they've been around for a few years now are still reigning strong. Wooden crates are just as popular as ever too. Small and dainty filled with wildflowers, or long and slim like window boxes filling the centre of the table.
