    Been to my venue today to go through everything and the events lady there thinks I should have swags on the top table as she said no matter how much they iron the table clothes they will never be crease free and the table would look really plain with just white on it but I don't really like swags think they will ruin the whole vintage look I want are there any alternatives??

    How about using :-
    a lace type material?
    a runner?
    A added coloured cloth the other way? (my gran always did this for sunday dinners, lol)
    eg.
    table 1.jpeg
    table 1.jpeg
    table 1.jpeg
    table 1.jpeg
    except a vintage cloth
    Or fairy lights along?
    eg.
    table 2.jpeg
    table 2.jpeg


    Hope that's some help, couldn't find any pictures that weren't of round tables lol x

    I know a lady who specialises (sp?) in vintage decor and I'm sure she has swags???
    I'll leave her link on your wall hunni have a look at her work and have a word with her see what she thinks.
    Her work is STUNNING.
