Find your table !!

Wedding reception, award function or any corporate event...every event has some table numbers because it's easier for people to find their allotted tables if there is some logical order.

Generally numbers or names are given to the table and this is a very common way to identify a particular table. These table numbers could be given in many interesting ways. I love to give the tables some funny names or numbers that matches with the event theme.

Here are some innovative ideas to identify your table which can add some entertainment and excitement to your event. Also this will open more design or décor options for you event.

Some common ways to number the tables




1. Flowers name
If it is a wedding, birthday party, anniversary or any any event you can give flowers name to all guests table.  Rose garden table, Lilly etc


2. Movies name 
Here I believe is the best way to identify your table. This is the best idea if your event is on bollywood theme. Table name is given as per the movie's name such as Ra-One, Rockstar etc


3. Colors name
Colors name can be given to the table. If you are planning any multicolored theme wedding then you can use colors name to identify your tables. 

4.Destination name
Your guests can identify their table by any specific destination's name. Such as Dilli,  Mumbai or it could be New York, London etc. 

Choose unique names for tables based on a shared hobby, sports, gemstones, favorite restaurants, favorite singer pastimes or even street name if bride and groom is from one city.

Get married under the azure sky

Yesterday one of my friend from India was asking some unique ideas for wedding ceremony. I suggested to have wedding mandaps outdoor as India has beautiful tropical weather. 

You can plan to have your wedding mandaps on the beach, in the park, in lawns, backyards or even on your terrace too!! Wedding season in India means common date for weddings, sometimes  non -availability of halls, expensive venue on peak time. On such times you can use a backyard for your wedding  so that you can pick the date, rather than trying to find a hall that is available on the date that you want.

Here is beautiful blue mandap near water


This green and white combination mandap is good for parks or lawns. 


This orange decor could be a nice idea if you want to plan your wedding  in backyard, front yard or on the terrace. 


Or even at the nighttime you can plan your wedding outdoors with the below decor idea. 


Simple yet elegant decor you can use on any waterfront hotel terrace. 



Now a days event wedding hall maintains their lawn area where you can plan any type of decor. 


Be careful !! In case the weather is not agreeable you should have a hall nearby your mandap which can accommodate your guests or you can get get a tent. You always should have a backup plan ready. 

Become a princess on your wedding day


Weddings- Disney themed wedding could me most stunning and romantic weddings. 
We have always read stories where the prince will come and marry his princess. Every bride has the same dream from childhood that one day her prince charming will come and  marry her.. If you want to be a princess/prince or your wedding day this is the perfect combination of your dream and theme.
