Tablescapes: The Art of Layering-Table Runners

Hello Brides and Wedding Planners,

Have you ever gone through scores of wedding photos, and got bored with the same monotonous view? Are you searching for ways to make you event elegant, but want to set it apart from other weddings? Our team here at I Do Events strive to add extra oomph to otherwise basic linens through the art of layering. 

We just received some new additions to our inventory, and instead of just showing them all by their lonesome we decided to have some fun, and layer it up for a more dynamic look! Please take a gander at our images, and check out how we created each one!





We decided to add our plum sash to augment the floral pattern found in the runner, which we think perfectly compliments the winery theme we often see during the summers!

We wanted to warm up this display by adding a second layer. The top layer is a guava color in organza, which gives it a nice watercolor look

We used the same silver satin table runner, but with the same sash exposing the satin side. The metallic hue with the rich jewel tone is very popular this year, and makes for a very classy look perfect for Winter or New Years Eve weddings!



We wanted to add a richness to this display, but we decide to add more dimension by building on the red table runner with different textures. We used a gold matte sash with a 4" red satin sash to show off a romantic theme!

We paired two different size sashes with this navy runner to match the peacock table matt placed under the centerpiece. We thought this was an ideal choice for those that have multiple colors as their wedding theme!

We went with the same idea by playing with different sash sizes, but in a monochromatic look with various hues of soft pink perfect for a blushing bride

We hope you enjoyed the different ways you can dress up your table, and turn it from plain or drab to one that is dynamic and fab!

Happy Planning,
