In this article, we will talk about the warm and magical elements of wedding décor – taper candles.
Probably not a single wedding has been decorated without candles: taper candles are a great way to add height to any table without blocking the view of guests across the table. Candlesticks are a great starting point for a centerpiece because you can accent them in so many ways – small floral arrangements, bud vases, greenery, velvet table runners – truly there are no limitations.
We are all so used to candles that we forget about the basic rules that should be followed when using candles in wedding décor:
Any wedding dinner will sparkle with new colors if you add candles to it. You can add them to the main composition or make them the centerpiece on the table. In both cases, they should be in candlesticks or on stands.
If the central place on the table is occupied by a floral or other design composition, then choose such candles and candlesticks that will be combined with the main serving element.
Thin antique candles look best in a company with classic or “garden” flower arrangements, but thicker and more voluminous options are suitable for informal styles: rustic, country style. Candles can also be a great option for decorating long tables: you can make a path through the entire table from candles of different heights or add them to an existing flower garland.
Candles are a fragile part of the décor, so be sure to prepare a few spare ones so that in case of breakage you can quickly replace them with new ones.
