Have you ever thought what an empty wine bottle can do for your wedding décor? Well, then you must take inspiration from this image and use empty wine bottles for table decoration ideas. Apart from making for a great flower vase, the coloured glass bottle also adds vibrancy to the ambience and décor. Put some of your favourite bright coloured flowers into them and place it on all the tables, to give it a very raw yet lively feel. 

Summer Fruit For Your Vase

Now here’s another unique idea for your flower vase. While the wine bottles are coloured and opaque, table decoration ideas like these makes more sense with transparent flower vases. Slice your citrus fruits and put them in your transparent flower vase to make it more summery and cool. For those of you following a colour scheme can go for fruits and flowers both that match the theme. Like lime in your vase and yellow roses would be perfect for a summer day time Haldi function. 

Plants as a Table Runner

Table runners’ work excellently to decorate rectangular tables that accommodate more number of people and plants and flowers are a great idea to be used for it too. Especially if you have an outdoor function with a theme that’s more relevant, there is no better idea than using plants and flowers as table decoration ideas from nature. Apart from making the setup look less themed and more natural, it goes well with the rustic/vintage themed functions both in the day time as well as night. A pre-wedding sit-down dinner is probably where we’d use this idea to impress the guests while also keeping it simple and fun. 

Wine Glass as Candle Stand

Now here’s an idea that has many layers to it. Firstly, the idea of using wine glasses upside down with flowers inside makes for one of the unusual table decoration ideas.  However, using the bottom of the wine glass put upside down as a candle stand just beats all the average table decoration ideas. This one is simple to execute and looks rather fancy to be used for any wedding function. The reception night could be perfect for this as lit candles add to the vibe and the ambience without much hassle.  

Parrots and Pineapples

A poolside Mehndi function or a bachelor’s party would be the perfect time to use this idea.  Just make sure that the spunk of colours goes well with the outdoors of the venue.  

Carnival Inspired Table Decoration Ideas

While carnival themes are legit fun when it comes to wedding décor, there is a lot that you can do within this theme. But to keep it simple, a few elements are more than enough to create the vibe that you want. A carnival-themed table mat, a small Ferris wheel on the table and a carnival canopy tent are enough to give your guests’ the feel of a carnival. Just as unusual as the idea is, this one also makes for a great backdrop for pictures. So, surprise your guests with a theme they’ve never experienced before.

Vintage themes are extremely common when it comes to wedding functions. But what is it that makes these vintage table decoration ideas everyone’s favourite? We love the tall taper candles placed on the vintage candle stands and food served on vintage china and this isn’t all that moves out heart. From flowers as the centrepiece to satin runners adding a touch of old-world charm, there is nothing that we do not like about this theme. Vintage table decoration ideas work best for sit down dinners. So if you plan on hosting your guests for a sit-down reception dinner then you know which theme to opt for.  

Pompoms as Table Decoration Ideas

Paper pompoms are becoming increasingly famous when it comes to themes and decors. However, there are a million ways to incorporate them in your décor, but a handful to incorporate them in your table decoration. Pompoms on sticks as flowers is our favourite way to incorporate them while making them look good and also adding to the overall theme. Colourful pompom flowers on the table work well for daytime functions and add colour to the décor as well.  

Chai Glasses with Stands as the Centrepiece

While wedding functions that follow a rustic theme opt for table decoration ideas including chai glasses and the chai glass stand, there is much more that you can do with them apart from just putting them on the table as a centrepiece. From filling them with the different spices or chutneys to using them for flowers or colours, the chai glasses and its stand makes for one of the most useful centrepieces. Table decoration ideas like these don’t just add to the vibe but also make for great cutlery holder or spice container. So use it wisely and surprise your guests with an out of the box idea to use them for your function.
