Table decorations. We are having an evening wedding celebration three weeks after our marriage. The room is very large and the tables round and seat 8. As the occasion is more like a party than a wedding. Can anyone recommend a decoration suitable for these tables, except balloons, without a huge cost. Thought about decorating jam jars but they will look lost. Tia
Hi bowls with small lights in them :0
Thanks lucy x
Different coloured glass bottles with fairy lights in? Many charity shops have different coloured glass bottles and pound land have lights. Also, flowers from the supermarket could make a nice centre piece.
Sweets in large bowls x
I got cocktail bowls from Poundland as well as some Leds on copper wire from there too. I bought a 6.99 roll of organza off Amazon and bam:
They look great in a low lit room!
You could make photo collages of you and your partner in cheap frames and put them in the middle of each table . Having said that if its dark you might not see them. We had different beer bottles with the copper wire lights in which looked good of hubbys fave beers x
I did jam jars and taller one like mix off three then get some nice little tea lights even battery ones and you can even get some nice little confetti or something and sprinkle on
there are a huge amount of garden pots and things on sale at the. you could always plant them up x
What about winr bottles spray painted with a nice candle or flower in, or im getting plant pots and painting them then putting nice flowers in and then after i have lots of new plants for my garden x
What about fish bowls or lanterns
Go to a local bar/gin bar and ask them for all their empty bottles, that’s why I’ve done. Got about 50 empty bottles for free which I’m going to put fairy lights and flowers and candles in them.
We are doing lots of different empty gin bottles and u can get cork tops with fairy lights attached! Look ace xx
Bowls with floating tea light candles and coloured beads at the bottom.
Tall vases with string lights inside with either flowers coming out or attach photo's of yourself on them x
I had round tables, and did vases, with foam and silk flowers, these were given to special people at the wedding

Simplicity ️
I'm using empty gin bottles from pubs :)
I had 2 rooms in my venue, for the evening I decided one would be a quiet room and to save costs decorated it myself. I bought mirrored coasters and on top of them I stood spray painted old wine bottles of various shapes and sizes spray painted gold and rose gold they had white candles stuck in them and scatter diamonds all around them. Literally cost pounds and I loved how beautiful they looked! X
I'm maybe having artificial flowers in small vases, as I'm having a Tea.
We decorated our own jam jars, filled them with garden flowers and surrounded them with ivy with 3 or 4 jars on each table. Looked beautiful 😋
We used paper lanterns with tea lights in them it gave a great effect at night their fire proof and made for real tea lights but we just put flicker candle battery operated ones in them as we had individual balloons in them aswell get them on eBay we did 24 tables for very little cost but with great effect. This is best picture I have but hall lights are still on
I went into a pound shop yesterday and they had a wedding section with wooden signs, mirror plates, goldfish bowls and lights for between 1 and 5 quid. For the sake of a few hours use try places like that. Also B&M are selling off loads of wedding decor stuff cheap now too.
