Tabletop Centerpiece Inspiration!

When deciding how to have your dining tables and centerpieces set, there tends to be much more to it than originally considered.  Chargers or none? Which type of plate? Silver or gold cutlery? Napkin color and fold? Favors? Garlands or vases? It just goes on and on.

Thankfully, we’re here to help!

These are some of our favorite examples of tabletop centerpiece ideas over the last couple of years to help narrow your search and provide a bit more to visualize.

From the moment our guests step down from the ceremony to the reception, the first thing that captures their eyes are the exquisite tables displaying none other than the choice of centerpieces that our clients envisioned for their big day.

No matter how many events we’ve had, we are always surprised at the latest form of ingenuity and creativity! The outcome of the centerpieces leaves us absolutely speechless with how breathtaking it all comes together.

These wood Farm Tables fit the tone that carries over from our historic Hacienda. They also allow more space for guests and elaborate, exciting centerpieces!

Traditional round tables instead of Farm Tables are still a blank canvas for the creative spirit! These are packed full of potential and provide a more intimate seating arrangement for guests to have easy conversations with the rest of their table. They also allow for smaller centerpieces, but that doesn’t mean they have to be less fun or exquisite.

There are endless combinations of glassware, silverware, chargers, and plates that we can access for your tables to look perfect on the big day. All it takes is some imagination!

A Throwback To Colorful Moments | Cinco De Mayo

We know it’s a little early for #ThrowbackThursday…

But, in honor of Cinco de Mayo, we thought we’d bring back one of our most festive weddings from last year!

 

Claudia and Reggie were a DIY decor inspiration.

Their attention to detail left no spot on our Ranch untouched by their heritage. These paper decorations on the ceremony arch were incredible, and the happy couple decorated it themselves!

 

Each of their tables had adorable miniature pinatas, customized maracas, and hand-planted cacti and succulents as their centerpieces!

 

 

We barely recognized our humble Cabana once Claudia’s beautiful paper flowers and Mexican Candy buffet were all displayed!

 

 

Are you looking for more pictures of this festive event?

Check out the full gallery on the blog post that we dedicated to them here!

 

From all of us here at Leo Carrillo Ranch, Happy Cinco de Mayo!

Ropes of roses, cords of chrysanthemums, strings of sweetpeas, we’ve seen it all!

Our beloved Pepper Tree is gorgeous on is own,

but couples and the occasional florist have felt inspired enough to do a bit of redecorating!

 

If you’re having your ceremony with the tree in the background, we encourage talking to your florist about makeover ideas!

There are just a few guidelines we’d like to make known before the planning process begins…

Leo Carrillo Ranch staff cannot decorate our tree for you.

If you plan on having decorations of any kind put on our tree, they need to be done by a professional.

(Specifically, a florist or decor service who has the proper equipment, insurance, and experience.)

Leaving it up to the professionals has always resulted in the fastest and safest setup with the best-looking decor!

Please do not stress out our tree!

We ask that no nails, tacks, staples, or anything else be used to adhere or attach anything to our tree.

The Ranch and its Tree are both historic landmarks, and without this rule, this gentle giant would become quickly abused.

The branches are already in perfect positions to hang the garlands on!

If there is any extra assistance needed, we suggest using fishing line or rope to secure your decorations better.

So please, dress up the ceremony space and our happy tree as much as your heart desires!

Just keep in mind our rules, so it continues to stay happy.
