Tables.
Probably among the least sexy elements imaginable when considering your wedding planning. And yet, they provide the foundation for your celebration. Where you put down your meals (and towards the end of the night, possibly put up your feet). Where you pick up your drinks and your sweets. Leave gifts and gather placecards. You know … all the wedding details.
Table decor is more than a white cloth over wood and metal. It’s an opportunity for wedding styling. And a way of showing your personality as a couple.
