There is no one way to accessorize your wedding reception, but tying it all together with color is a great beginning.

For the bride who’s unafraid of color, our Romance look packs an elegant pink punch – from the tablecloth to the colored glassware to the ribbon ties.

Color speaks

You’ll transform your reception room and boost the wow factor with bold and beautiful color.

Table linens
Try a vibrant, raspberry-colored tablecloth and sheer peek-a-boo organza overlay for a sure attention-getter! White cloth napkins would add a crisp, clean elegance.

More ideas
  • Scatter flower petals between the tablecloth and sheer organza overlay.
  • Turn up the volume with fuchsia-colored napkins.

Start with the centerpiece

The centerpiece is the focal point of your table and, after color, should be your first consideration.
Hurricane candle
There’s nothing better than candlelight to set the mood. Choose a hurricane candle holder and tall pillar candle to carry out your theme.

The pillar may be accentuated with pink and white grosgrain ribbon. For added drama, tuck a rose into the knot of a wide tulle bow, allowing the streamers to float on the tabletop.

More ideas
  • Fill the hurricane with rose petals to a depth of three to four inches around the candle.
  • Tuck a small bouquet of various pink flowers in the tulle bow around the hurricane.

Individual wedding cake

Another option? A small wedding cake on each table makes a beautiful statement and is a convenient way to serve guests. Top it off with the initial of your last name. Provide engraved serving pieces for an additional touch of class.

More ideas
  • Top each cake with different initials that spell your last name, first names or sentimental words like “always,” “forever,” “love,” etc. and use them on a shelf, mantel or buffet afterwards.

  • Tie narrow pink ribbon streamers (personalized) around the base of the square pedestal cake plate or weave ribbon through the holes around the edge for added pizzazz..
