9 Easy DIY Centerpieces for Your Wedding Reception

No matter if your big day is right around the corner or you're planning ahead, it's important to get an idea of the centerpieces you'd like to utilize at your wedding reception. Whether you're going for a rustic theme or a traditional look, there are a TON of do-it-yourself centerpieces to help you save money on your decorating budget. Our Colorado Springs wedding venue knows how important it is to save money where you can - that's why we've provided these tips for creating beautiful centerpieces for your big day.


1) Floral Vases

While a florist can be create beautiful displays for your tables, you can do this same work on your own. Gather vases from a thrift store or around your friends and families' homes to save a little money. Fill the vases with fresh flowers and a splash of water - you're ready for a beautiful floral display for your guests to enjoy at the table.

2) Rustic Display

Twine and lace can be wrapped around any vase, wine bottle, or can to give a rustic touch for your big day. Also mason jars filled with baby's breath flowers are a simple way to decorate your tables, without spending a ton of money!

3) Serve Wedding Favors

A cake or serving tray can be placed on each table, filled with favors for your guests to take home. Consider spray painting serving trays to match your wedding color or theme, for a uniform look! This is a great way to encourage your guests to take their goodies, when they leave your reception.

4) Colorful Candlesticks

Find candlesticks at a local thrift store or around your home and paint them a fun color. This is a great way to incorporate color into your table displays to match your wedding decor. You big day should be fun - showcase some fun colors via candlesticks as your centerpieces!

5) Potted Plants

Gather some of your favorite pots and plant flowers for an easy and quick centerpiece. Consider painting your flower pots to match your wedding decor. This is another great opportunity to add some beautiful pops of color to your reception.

6) Re-purposed Wine Bottles

With all those empty wine bottles hanging around, utilize them for your decor. Wrap the bottles in fabric, lace, twine, or a number of other material to match your wedding theme. This is an easy way to reuse your empty bottles and adds a personal touch to your reception.

7) Tree Stump Stand

Trying to add a natural look to your big day? Consider cutting slices of tree to place on the center of your tables. Then you can stack pretty candles, flowers, or filled vases on top of this tree stump.

8) Painted Soup Can

Similar to wine bottles, you can paint cans or decorate them as you see fit, for your big day. This is an inexpensive way to add flowers to your tables. It can be a unique way to decorate your reception, as well.

9) Filled Vases

While flowers are a popular item to place in vases, consider adding glass beads or any other decor item to your vases. A classic look may feature a bead filled vase and candles set on top of a mirror in the center of the tables at the reception.
