In the hustle and bustle of one of the best (but busiest) days of your lives, the sweetheart table at your wedding reception is a welcomed and socially acceptable refuge. Picture it: just the two of you, seated facing the crowd of witnesses gathered, able to eat a few bites of food and check in with one another in the midst of all the fanfare. Happy sigh! By the time you get to your reception, you may just need a moment to sit, and the sweetheart table is a fabulous way to create that moment for you and your brand new spouse.
Sweetheart Table Planning
Your sweetheart table set up should be the highlight of your summer wedding planning! It’s a small but truly special part of the whole day. Go ahead and give yourself the freedom to totally go for it with your sweetheart tablescape. Design the table décor to make it really stand out, complete with unique wedding place cards and luxurious flowers. This is your own private table at your wedding! Give it all the personal touches!
Extravagant Sweetheart Table Décor
Your sweetheart table is a gorgeous extension of your wedding theme. You’ll want it to coordinate with your wedding décor, but feel free to make it extra special! It’s your day! The sweetheart table is the perfect place to be totally extravagant, especially when it comes to flowers. Of course, your personalized wedding napkins and wedding matches anchor your tablescape and coordinate it with the rest of the reception décor. You may even want to include a few of your wedding sparkler sleeves to admire, since you’ll be busy running under the sparklers when you depart for the night!
Sentimental Touches on Your Sweetheart Table
Give your sweetheart table a sentimental touch by adding a few details that hold meaning for you and your beloved. Set your sweetheart table with a luxurious tablescape that includes a memento from one of your first dates, a photograph taken soon after you knew that your relationship was getting serious, or a bouquet of that certain flower that reminds you of the picnics you took together when you were first dating. You’ll love taking in the scene together, and you’ll catch your guests peeking at what items you included in such a gorgeous table setting.
Smart Details at Your Sweetheart Table
Have your own bottle(s) of your bubbly of choice chilled and waiting for you on the table. You’ll definitely want to be ready for a private toast together before the speeches begin! It’s also smart to have a vase ready for your bridal bouquet. This will automatically step up the floral game and also keep your bouquet fresh during the reception. Stash anything else you may want, like breath mints or a spare lipstick, in a cute little box tucked under the flowers.
