A wedding is a touching and fun celebration that gives the world a new family unit. In order for vivid impressions to remain in memory and in photographs for a long time, the organizers need to take care of the decoration of the festive table. An important aspect in organizing a feast is the correct location of guests. Here it is necessary to take into account not only wedding traditions, but also the wishes of all participants in the holiday.
Table decoration
First, you need to decide on the place of celebration - there will be a feast indoors or a buffet table in the fresh air. Wedding colors: white, pink, lemon and blue. Symbol: a swan as a sign of loyalty and pure thoughts. Indoors, walls and tables are decorated with displays of balloons and fresh flowers. On the street, you should take care of setting up tents - in case of bad weather.
You can entrust the design to professionals by ordering the appropriate services and spending a lot of financial resources. In order to save money, it is better to shift the function of organizers to closest friends - let them include imagination and imagination.
A place for newlyweds is usually indicated by a bunch of heart-shaped balloons attached to the wall. The drapery and the royal canopy made of bright fabrics will look original. Flower buds can be pinned to the fabric, and chairs can be decorated with beautiful ribbons and bows. Many people use garlands as decor and additional lighting.
A festive table can be decorated not only with a variety of dishes, but also with beautifully folded napkins. For example, in the form of a rose. Take layered paper napkins. With the closed side on top, cut a thin strip on the left side and set aside. Open the napkin and fold it like an accordion. Visually determine the middle and tie with the same strip that you cut off at the beginning. Separate and fold up each layer one at a time until you get something like a rosebud.
Cloth napkins can also be turned into a flower. To do this, turn the napkin right side to the table. Take a fork and pick up the middle of the fabric with your prongs. Twist with a fork as if you were winding spaghetti until you get a tight spiral. Take a napkin in a quick motion and turn it over. To prevent the imaginary flower bud from disintegrating, secure the spiral using beautiful hairpins and invisible pins.
Seating guests
By tradition, wedding tables are arranged in the form of the letter "T", "W" or "P". However, there are no strict rules regarding this, it all depends on the shape of the tables and the scope of the holiday. If possible, tables are placed with an eight, and a semicircle, and a wave.
In traditional versions, the newlyweds are seated at the head of the table. There should be a witness next to the groom, and a witness with the bride. Guests are seated according to family and friendship ties: those who come from the bride's side sit opposite the bride, etc.
In the case when the tables are separate from each other, the newlyweds with witnesses occupy the table in the center, and the rest of the tables with guests are placed around the central table in the form of flower petals.
Parents should sit closest to the newlyweds. Then the next of kin according to age: grandparents, aunts-uncles, etc. Further, the guests alternate by gender: man - woman - man. To make it easier for guests to navigate where to sit, it is recommended to use name cards. Place badges or signs near each plate, and at the entrance to the hall, post a notice with a seating plan: table number 1:… and so on. The plan and cards should be done on the same paper in a bright color and style.
Add a touch of magic to the celebration by preparing a little surprise for each guest. For example, for a mother-in-law, you can put a box near the plate, inside which it will be written: "Thank you for your daughter!" etc. Instead of words of gratitude, mini-predictions are also suitable. For example, you have conceived a competition with certain guests. In the predictions for them, write something like: "You will spin in a dance of passion, wine and sweets are waiting for you."
