Personalize your wedding theme – put your heart and soul on the table

How do you show your personality in a traditional setting? Well, sometimes you just need to put your heart and soul on the table. A brilliant example I have seen this year is a wonderful couple who managed to add a modern twist on a traditional wedding scene.

One of the examples expressed was by their table setting design. The groom is a DJ with an incredible collection of vinyl’s and the bride a beautiful creative spirit. With their combined talents they decided to spray-paint one side of the vinyl with silver spray paint – to match the overall colour theme of course – and turned it into a table placemat.

In the centre of the vinyl they added the detail from their wedding invitation and the name of the guest who would be seated there. It made a great conversation piece when the guests took their seats and such a signature twist to make a wedding setting just that much more unique to the bride and groom.

I found it also quite symbolic of the love the groom has for his gorgeous bride and it is always refreshing to see how modern weddings are starting to show a touch of the groom in the design and wedding décor of the magical event that belongs to the both of you.

Tips on how to personalize your wedding setting:

Pick a detail that is common place / traditional and jazz it up with a personal twist, like the candles, the centre piece, the desert bowls, the name placements…

If you are into pottery, why not design unique dishes for the centre of each table and fill it with petals, candles or candy.
Or if you can make candles, then turn the centre piece into something unique and gorgeous.
If you are good with embroidery then make your name tags out of a gorgeous fabric and sew something pretty onto it and mark it with a metallic pen.
If you are in to beading you could design a detail to compliment a candle holder or wrap around the stem of the champagne glasses.
