How many people can sit at this table?

When planning your event, it is definitely important to know how many people are able to sit around the table.  Here is a guide that you can go by when doing your guest seating.

30″ round – 2-3  people

36″ round – 4 people

42″ round – 5 people

48″ round – 6 people

54″ round – 7-8 people

60″ round – 8-10 people

72″ round – 10-11 people

This also depends on the size and the style of the chairs that will be set at the table.  Since your guests will be seated for the majority of your event, it is important to make sure that they are comfortable.

Aquarium Centerpieces

Centerpieces with fish is a great conversation piece for guests and can be very colorful and vibrant on the table.  When seeing an aquarium centerpiece when entering a venue, you already know that this is going to be a very fun and upbeat event.

These are great to honor special guests at the event as a gift.  Always make sure that you follow direction on how to care for the fish prior to the event.

Line Tables with Ribbons

Table runners are a nice accent to each tabletop, but a different touch is by adding ribbons.  With ribbons you can bring to your table several different colors as well as create distinct patterns.  Be creative and have fun with it.

Stay on Wine Coasters

Having a get together and planning on serving wine?  You have everything you need the wine, the glasses, bottle cork opener, and yes of course the wine charms that tag your glass.  So you think you have everything?  What about stay on wine coasters?  We found these cute stay on coasters on www.dimmalimm.co.

They are cute wine coasters that you slide onto the bottom of your wine glass.  They come in a variety of colors that you can buy and mix and match. You will not have to worry about watermarks on your furniture when you use these.

Wine and Dine

When we saw this tablescape we just thought it was beautiful.  What a nice setting that settles around wine.

Additional touches that can me made are wine bottle tops that are candles.  How cute are these??

This is an idea that we also used on photo shoot with The Invitation Lounge

I love this idea of having the lights in the the wine bottle as well!  So creative.

Corks, wine, and grapes are all items that can be used to add to your wine design.

We Love Weddings Wednesday – Vegetables for Floral Arrangements

A couple weeks ago I dropped into a floral shop to finalize some details for a photo shoot and I saw that they had bunches of kale.

I never thought to use kale as a centerpiece or even in a bridal bouquet, but I did think this is something that can be done to look nice.  So here are some pictures that I found of kale and artichokes being used together as floral options.

Here is a floral bouquet

Here are some boutonnieres

Check out some pictures of centerpieces

So kale and artichokes are not just edible they can make beautiful floral statements.
