A lot of detail goes into planning your wedding or special event. From the attire to the menu to the table settings, your choices will influence the look and feel of your celebration, for better or worse.

Sometimes, however, when it comes to event decor, it can be confusing to figure out how to express yourself and your style. One of the biggest and best ways to capture the mood is through your table decor. Thankfully, there are some tips and tricks you can use to help create the emotions you're going for. If you're searching for inspiration, try these ideas for decorating your table tops in style!

Look To Your Venue

The easiest and most economical way to decorate your tabletops for your special day is to see what your venue offers. Some venues have tables, chairs, linens, silverware, glassware, and dishes.

At Tribeca Rooftop + 360° in NYC, we have everything you need to set a beautiful tabletop, including romantic tea lights! You bring the flowers, we'll do the rest.

Rent Your Decor

If you're looking for a particular style or color scheme, many rental options are available in NYC. From bold and bright to understated and elegant, it pays to call around to find exactly what you're looking for.

While rental prices may vary depending on your rental company's pattern and location, supplies are usually available for many different budgets.

Purchase Your Decor

Purchasing your table settings can have pros and cons, especially if you have a huge wedding. Costs add up, and you'll wonder what to do with your purchases after the event. This is why buying your tabletop decor is not as common as renting.

Still, there are ways to save money on unique decor if you want a unique setup. Check thrift stores, dollar stores, yard sales, antique stores, and department stores for matching sets, or choose different styles to add a unique look to your tablescape.

Don't Forget The Flowers

Once you have your place settings set, remember to purchase the decorations. Flowers, candles, lanterns, and more all add dimension to your tabletop.

Whether they're level or staggered in heights and widths, decorative items dress up your tables with a style that's uniquely your own. Look to bridal magazines, social media, and blogs to get inspiration for your tables, or collaborate with your florist to see the latest trends and seasonal colors.

Ready, Steady, Go!

Once you've got your decor options set, remember to place your order so you're guaranteed the patterns and styles you want for your big day.
