Do you need wedding centerpieces?

Wedding centerpieces are a focal point for the tables at your wedding reception and an important component of your wedding decor. As the name suggests, they’re typically placed in the center of the table, providing added beauty and elegance and making the tables and venue more visually interesting. Centerpieces complement the aesthetic of your big day, creating a harmonious look with your other wedding decorations . Wedding centerpieces don’t have to be solely decorative. Many serve a practical function, such as adding a source of ambient light with candles or lanterns. They can also display important information, such as menus or table numbers.

How do you choose wedding centerpieces?

When it comes to selecting your wedding centerpiece, there are a few factors to consider: the overall decor or theme, the venue, and your budget. Stylistically, there are no hard rules that must be followed, but here are a few things to keep in mind when you’re making your choice: Wedding theme: Typically, your centerpieces should complement the overall look of your wedding; consider the color scheme or theme you’re following and pick a centerpiece that fits within it. Elegant wedding centerpieces, like floral arrangements or candles, will suit a sophisticated wedding, whereas wood elements or lantern wedding centerpieces fit well in a rustic environment. Venue: The venue plays an important role in many of your wedding design choices. For outdoor venues, consider centerpieces that are lower and won’t be easily affected by the wind or other weather. A larger venue with big tables can accommodate a more substantial centerpiece, whereas smaller, more intimate tables will work best with smaller wedding centerpieces. Budget: Shops on Etsy have wedding centerpieces in all price ranges. Consider your overall budget and the number of tables before deciding on the perfect centerpiece for your big day. To keep costs down, you’ll find plenty of DIY wedding centerpiece options that are fun to make. Mix and match different centerpiece elements to put them together yourself. Season: The season in which your wedding is set can greatly influence your wedding centerpieces. For instance, a fall wedding centerpiece can feature fall foliage, pumpkins, or rustic elements. A winter wedding, on the other hand, might sparkle with icy crystals, evergreen branches, or pinecones. Spring and summer weddings often celebrate floral abundance and fresh color palettes. Remember to utilize what's naturally available and beautiful in the season of your wedding.

How tall should a wedding centerpiece be?

In general, a centerpiece between 12–18 inches in height is a good range—but the height of your centerpieces is ultimately up to you. Tall wedding centerpieces fill the space and offer a more dramatic effect. This option typically suits big venues, large tables, or tables with lots of separation. However, more intimate spaces may feel crowded with tall wedding centerpieces and they may block the view of your guests when they’re seated.

What types of wedding centerpieces are popular?

Etsy sellers have wedding table centerpieces for any style, theme, or season of wedding. You’ll find customizable designs that arrive complete, or you can add extra details to your wedding centerpieces using everything from easels, wooden letters, or colored sand. Consider these wedding centerpiece ideas: Floral centerpieces: Flowers will never go out of style when it comes to weddings. These centerpieces offer a traditional, elegant look. Decide how extravagant you’d like your floral centerpieces to be. A single type of flower provides a simple and uniform beautiful look, or for something more elaborate, combine multiple flower varieties and accent with greenery. Candle centerpieces: Lighting in your centerpiece adds warmth and ambience, and there’s perhaps nothing better for that than candles. Candle centerpieces are romantic and intimate, appropriate in indoor or outdoor venues. Candles can be displayed as centerpieces in several ways, such as candle holders, lanterns, or floating in water. Vase centerpieces: Vases add beauty and art to a table. Fill them with flowers or any other decorative elements. When selecting the right type of vase centerpiece , consider your wedding theme and aesthetic. A glass vase is elegant, metal vases may suit a more modern style, and ceramic vases come in many colors to match your decor. For a rustic wedding centerpiece, consider a variation on a vase, like mason jar wedding centerpieces . Plant centerpieces: Flowers aren’t the only plants that make beautiful wedding centerpieces. You can go with an entire plant—such as a succulent or hydrangea—or stick with foliage. Some popular plant centerpiece choices include eucalyptus, ferns, or ivy. For a fall wedding centerpiece, consider autumn colors or leaves. Edible centerpieces: Combine treats with your wedding centerpiece for a fun twist. Choose any of your favorites, such as desserts, snacks, candy, fruit, or cheese displays. An edible centerpiece offers a secondary function and is a great conversation starter. Alternative centerpieces: You’ll find a variety of items on Etsy that can be used to create a centerpiece. For a studious or sophisticated vibe, vintage books are a fine choice. Wine lovers may prefer empty wine bottles with decorative labels. These centerpieces can be filled with fairy lights or flowers for a twist on a vase.
