 Jessica & Cory Photography Have you ever scrolled Pinterest or Instagram for wedding ideas only to see floral arrangements on top of floral arrangements? Don’t get us wrong, we LOVE flowers (we are a garden venue, after all). But sometimes, you want something different. And sometimes, you don’t want to spend tons of money on flowers either. If you are looking for table decor ideas that don’t require you to use a florist, then keep on reading! 1. Lanterns Lanterns are a versatile option for centerpieces. And don’t fret! If you hear lanterns and automatically think rustic, think again! While some lanterns do give a rustic feel, there are ENDLESS styles of lanterns that don’t. Our venue has antique gold and modern black lanterns, among a variety of other styles. You can even mix and match small and medium lanterns, or different styles and textures to add more dimension to your tables. Pro Tip: Even if you don’t have a florist, you can still add some life and color to your centerpieces! Our venue has several faux greenery options available for use. Plus, some couples purchase baby’s breath or greenery at their local Publix to add to their centerpieces. 2. Gold Decor Our gold centerpieces are some of our most popular options here at Four Oaks. We have geometric options, modern glass vases, and more. As with the lanterns, we have faux greenery you can add around the centerpieces or down the middle if you have a rectangle table. We also have faux florals to add a pop of color. Some previous brides have even brought in their own faux stems to put in bud vases to incorporate their wedding colors. Again, no florist needed!
3. Candles Candles are a great way to add ambient lighting to your reception area. Whether it’s with gold candlesticks or vases with floating candles, consider adding a touch of light to your tables. Our venue has LED tealights, pillar candles, and taper candles for your use, or you can bring in your own floating candles. Pro Tip: Check with your venue to see their policy around candles and open flames. Four Oaks Manor, for instance, only allows floating candles and tealights. All other candles must be LEDs.
4. Books Where are our book lovers? There are so many ways to tie books into your wedding theme. Quotes, stacked vintage books, or even some open books to add extra dimension. Add some gold decor, faux greenery, or fresh florals from your local store to dress it up and add more personality.
5. Reuse Bouquets Okay, we know. We said centerpieces ideas that don’t require a florist. But *technically* you can still do this without a florist if you make your own bouquets. Or, if you get a florist just for your and your bridesmaids' bouquets, you can still reuse those for centerpieces and not have to pay for extra decor. Savings either way!
Other If the above five ideas aren’t your style, there are still options for you! We love it when couples get extra creative with their table decor. We’ve seen holiday-inspired table settings with mini Christmas trees, bonsai trees on a wood slice, pumpkins, and so much more. Centerpieces are a great chance to show off your personality and interests, so why not take advantage of the opportunity! Like what you see?
