Do you know what the most expensive part of a wedding usually is?
If you said, “the reception” then you're absolutely correct. Receptions eat up an enormous chunk of most wedding budgets – throwing a great party isn't cheap. However, your reception's decorations don't have to cost a lot to make your celebration visually appealing. Below are some decoration ideas you can use for your indoor or outdoor reception:
Indoor Reception Ideas
- Fill clear bowls with colored water and add rose petals or floating candles then use them as centerpieces
- Have an ice sculpture, chocolate or champagne fountain, or a balloon release to combine decorations with entertainment
- Sprinkle the tables with customized confetti – the confetti pieces can be cut from colored paper or fabric and cut into wedding-related shapes or the bride and groom's initials
Outdoor Reception Ideas - Fill small silver or wood planters with your wedding flowers and let your guests take them home as living keepsakes
- Hang Japanese lanterns to light outdoor receptions or to illuminate walkways during evening receptions
- Fill small decorative glass bottles with bubble-blowing liquid and place on tables for your guests along with blowers decorated with lace, ribbons, bows, or flowers.
These are just a few ideas to help you decorate your reception in style without increasing your expenses significantly.
