Thoughts on Choosing Table Linens for a Wedding Reception
Today’s bride-to-be has a number of decisions to make regarding her wedding and reception. There is one decision that you’ll have to make that might seem minor, but in actuality, can establish the tone of your whole wedding reception. This decision is in regards to what table linens you plan to use.
Most brides-to-be pick out colored table linens that match the color of their wedding. Another option is to consider the theme of the wedding and use theme printed table linens. Whatever your choice may be, this is a big decision to make.
Purchasing or renting table linens from an internet wholesale company might make it easier for you to make your decision. They can provide you with sample cloth swatches of the colors and fabrics used to make the table linens they offer. This makes it easier for you to match the table linens for the reception to the color or the theme of your wedding. The wedding budget will be easier to adhere to when you use a wholesaler because of the costs they offer.
A word of caution: Pick a wholesale company that specializes in different types of table linen which include tablecloths, napkins, placemats, chair covers and table skirting. This will allow you to fill all your table linen needs in the same location and, more importantly, you ensure that the colors and fabrics you pick for the different types of linen products will complement one another.
Don’t know where to start when it comes to deciding a theme for your wedding and then choosing table linens for that theme? Consider this. The print on a themed table linen can represent a specific hobby or interest that you enjoy as a couple. Perhaps you enjoy Nascar, boating or hunting. Look at table linens with a pattern such as Racing Check, Anchors Away or Camo. A wedding should be special and a reflection of you. Allow your imagination to run wild.
For a more romantic setting, use candle light along with lace table linens, satin table linens or luxurious table linens made from a fancy fabric such as Cascade, Monique or Pintuck. Consider layering your wedding tablecloths with a sheer fabric such as Organza over top a solid color polyester tablecloth. Complete the look with coordinating napkins, placemats, table skirts and chair covers. Add sparkle to the wedding reception by using table linens made from Dazzle, Twinkle or Tissue Lame. The options are truely endless.
