Styling A Black And White Striped Wedding

MORLIN offers a wide range of high-quality linens and decor items that can elevate your wedding. Here are some key elements that can elevate your decor and make a lasting impression on your guests.

 

  • Start with your tablescape. A burlap table runner roll can add a touch of rustic charm while complementing the black and white theme. Pair it with a black and white striped table cover for a bold and elegant look. This combination creates a perfect balance between texture and pattern.
  • To add a touch of glamour, incorporate crystal centerpieces. Crystal vases or candle holders can beautifully catch the light and create a dazzling effect. Consider mixing them with white flowers for a classic and timeless appeal.

Upcoming Striped Decor

This is the year of the black and white striped party decor! These colors may be basic, but they definitely create a sensational look for your special event. They’re absolutely perfect for a wedding day. If you are undecided on the color scheme, a striped wedding reception in black and white can create the unforgettable touch that you desire.

Just the Right Personality

If you’re a bold and vivacious bride with a dramatic flair, using a black and white striped wedding reception will stamp your personality on your wedding decor. You can use vivid colors as a striking contrast to a black and white tablecloth. The glitz sequin napkin and coordinating glitz sequin spandex chair band in fuchsia to make a bold splash similar to our mock up above. Finally, throw on the black glitz sequin table runner to really add sparkles!

If you’re not an extrovert, don’t let that thought discourage you from using the black and white table decor! It also works well for the reserved bride who seeks a quiet elegance. Your place setting can begin with a stripe napkin placed on the classic white and gold trimmed plastic plates coupled with cut crystal glassware. Add the gold charger as an understated but classic accent to your place setting. Use cut crystal bowls with black and white florals as centerpieces for the more formal and subdued atmosphere.

Just the Right Linen

As you begin to decorate for your black and white striped wedding reception, you’ll want just the right linens. Linens add an upscale touch that disposable plastic or paper tablecloths just can’t match. Using our wholesale tablecloths for sale can revolutionize a room no matter what size and at an affordable cost to you. Bear in mind also that these linens can be reused for multiple future occasions. The money you put into them is well invested.

Just the Right Style

Once you have your linens chosen you can turn your attention to proper display and staging. Again, as we consider our black and white wedding table setting, alternate each table with a solid black or white table cloth and then use a black and white striped table runner in stripes and coordinate with a stripe napkin. Or as a bold contrast to the stripes theme, use the beige satin napkin and accent the chairs with long scarves that alternate with stripes or chevrons. To further enhance the black and white striped tablecloth, black goblets and tall black vases with white flowers look spectacular lining the full length of each table.
