Centre of the universe...

Or centre of the table?

Choosing the right centrepieces for your tables can make the difference between your wedding looking HOT or NOT... With lots of things to consider, such as height, colour, practicality and cost, it's a lot to take on. Don't let your centre pieces take over your wedding with our helpful hints....



First things first - Ask your venue to recommend their favourite ideas and what they would chose if it were their wedding, they would have seen countless different displays in situ and their advice will undoubtedly be helpful. At Crowhurst Park we have our own large cocktail glass centrepieces which can be hired from us for a fraction of the cost they would be from venue dressers or florists, so you could save money too.

Secondly - Shop around and do your research! Wedding magazines, asking for photo's from your venues previous weddings and internet research are all excellent ways of thinking 'outside of the box' and discovering your perfect centrepiece. Rather than keeping it all one colour scheme, trying mixing a clashing colour in, you'd be surprised how good this can look especially with dark colours.

Thirdly - Make it personal. In our experience, the best centrepieces have a personal touch to them, it could be tying it in to your theme or adding something that means a lot to you as a couple.

Finally - Try it! Take it to your venue for a practise run, on their tables and in your room and see how it looks.

If you love it, your guests will love it.
