A night to last a lifetime

At nightfall, the magic begins. The wedding table gently lights up beneath a starry sky, cradled by the warm glow of hanging fairy lights. Candles flicker, the tableware catches golden reflections, and the atmosphere becomes intimate, almost enchanting. Dark wood, foliage, and touches of gold or natural accents come together to create a romantic, mesmerising mood. Setting a night-time table offers your guests a suspended moment between dream and reality.

How to style your wedding table

To nail the decoration of your wedding table, start by choosing a theme that suits the venue and your personal style, then play with a harmony of materials (wood, linen, glass), colours and decorative elements such as flowers, tableware and lighting. Pay special attention to lighting to create a warm atmosphere. Strike a balance between aesthetics and guest comfort, and add a personal touch to make the setting memorable.

Seven essential themes for your wedding table

Bohemian — Celebrates a free, poetic spirit with natural materials like linen, macramé and dried flowers to create a soft, relaxed atmosphere.

Rustic countryside — Puts nature centre stage by pairing raw wood, foliage and muted tones for a warm, authentic feel.

Romantic — Favours powdery colours, candles and delicate textures for a more intimate ambiance.

Night-time or fairy‑light — Turns the table into an enchanting cocoon using strings of lights and expressive lighting effects.

Chic and glamorous — Plays the elegance card with touches of gold, candelabra and sophisticated tableware.

Vintage — Invites nostalgia with mismatched crockery, antique‑style objects and pastel hues that recall weddings of the past.

Coastal — Evokes lightness and freshness with driftwood, shells and ocean‑inspired colours.
