The subtleties of the wedding table setting are constantly changing under the influence of one or another tradition. But one sign remains unchanged: the future happiness of the young depends on whether the place of the wedding feast is richly covered. How to clean the table as solemnly and beautifully as possible?
Instructions
Step 1
Table decoration starts with the tablecloth. The best option is a white linen tablecloth with a simple pattern. You can choose a solid color material that matches the color of the service. Do not use too bright flashy shades, as guests will spend more than one hour at the table, and too colorful background tires the eyesight. The tablecloth should hang from the table by about 15-25 cm. In the middle of the table you need to stretch two colored ribbons, put vases with white flowers on them. Place a wedding loaf in the center of the table.
Step 2
If you plan on inviting a large number of guests, make name cards and place them on the table. So it will be easier for people to decide, and there will be no questions about where to sit.
Step 3
Place a bouquet in front of the place for the young. All other flower arrangements should be placed diagonally so that they do not obscure each other. Sometimes, according to tradition, in front of the place of the newlyweds, 2 bottles of champagne are placed, tied together with a red ribbon. It symbolizes a happy and fun life together. You can also decorate the places for the young with flower arrangements or balloons.
Step 4
Arrange dishes for each guest. Start with a porcelain serving plate that acts as a stand during the meal. Place a snack or soup bowl on it (depending on the menu). Place a pie plate on the side and place a curly folded napkin on it. The dishes should be white, and the cutlery should ideally be made of polished silverware. In general, the dominant colors in the decoration of the table should be in harmony with the attire of the bride: white, golden, yellow.
Step 5
Arrange the cutlery correctly: a table knife on the right side of the plate, a fish knife to the right of the table knife, then a tablespoon to the right of the fish knife, a table fork to the left of the shallow plate, then a fish fork to the left of the dinner fork, and finally a dessert set between the shallow plate. and crystal.
Step 6
Each appliance is supposed to have a glass for water (juice or other drink), a glass for red wine, a glass for white and a glass for champagne.
