Wedding tablecloths are a crucial decorative of a reception. Tablecloth rentals for weddings add elegance and color and tie the aesthetic of a reception together. But how can you settle on a color?
The first thing you should do when selecting wedding tablecloths is consider your setting. Allow the location of your wedding to inspire your choice of rental linens. Often you can salvage a venue you’re not crazy about by choosing the right linens. Even the most minimalistic venue can be dressed up by the right wedding tablecloths. Figure out your venue’s color palette and use it to inform your decision.
Next, you have to prioritize what you want. If you’ve always wanted a certain flower, your choice of tablecloths should be secondary. Settling on a starting point that you consider non-negotiable allows you to design your wedding around that element. Once you have a priority design element, you’ll have a much easier time selecting a tablecloth color scheme.
Consider the season when you’re getting married. A spring wedding, for instance, could have very different colors than a fall wedding. Designing your wedding to match the season is a great place to start, but don’t let it limit you. If there are colors you love, you can always include them regardless of the season.
Your colors should also help set a certain mood. Dark or bold jewel tones create a more dramatic feel, whereas light pastels will create more of a effervescent, vintage feel. Choose the impression you want your colors to make and decide on colors that convey that impression.
Most importantly, go with what you love. If you’re not sure what your favorite color is, take a look around your house or peek in a closet to find the color palettes you already tend to gravitate toward and choose colors that will make you feel happy on your big day.
Linen rental companies have a variety of colors and designs to choose from, but make sure you reserve yours early. You don’t want to miss out on your carefully chosen colors just because someone else got to them first.
