I get a lot of questions about centerpieces - What are some unique centerpieces ideas? What elements should they include? What are some ideas I can use if I’m trying save money? What’s something that would work well with my day’s overall theme?

Don’t get me wrong, centerpieces are indeed important, but so is the rest of the table! I think the little things are often overlooked (or perhaps because fancier plates and flatware tend to be a bit more expensive, many couples don’t consider the different options). Enter : Swanky Tables.

Annette, the author of this fabulous blog is in the event design business. It’s a good thing, too, becase I think the lady knows what she’s talking about! A few of my fave posts:

Shanghai Nights Dinner Party
Swanky Tables

I love this bold design! It would lend itself very nicely to an engagement party, rehearsal dinner, or ladies night out (or in)! The following post give the details on the invites - paper fortune cookies!

Brunch with a Preppy Twist
Swanky Tables

Okay, so I feel like I’m cheating with this one because it’s yesterday’s post. But I do love it so! I have a soft spot for all things preppy, so naturally, I’m drawn to it. Again, it’s design would be superb for a bridal shower or luncheon.

The Bar

Okay, so this isn’t a post…it’s a category of posts. But, it’s definitely a category worth combing though. With some absolutely mouthwatering recipes and lots of need-to-know tidbits, check it out before your next wedding (or non-wedding) related event. Maybe you’ll find a new favorite or some inspiration for creating your own.
