Fabric

Choosing the right fabric for your napkins sets the foundation for a textural and tactile experience. Choosing napkins made from luxurious or interesting textiles can elevate your styling. Consider using fabrics like satin, silk, velvet, or lace, which have a smooth and soft feel.

For a rustic or boho wedding, opt for natural fibers such as linen for a soft drape adds a relaxed and organic feel.

Napkin styling

Today’s trends involve softly draping, folding or arranging the napkin on the setting. This technique creates an effortless and elegant look.

Instead of intricate origami style folds, another trend is to tie  relaxed knots with the napkins. The napkin can be placed in the center of the plate or off to the side, depending on the desired look. This technique adds a touch of whimsy and brings a tactile element to the table settings, as guests can untie the knots or adjust the napkins if needed.

Colors and Complementing Palettes

Napkins give you a fantastic opportunity to bring your wedding color palette to life and bring a sense of harmony to your design. Whether you go for napkins that perfectly match your chosen hues or mix it up with contrasting shades for a fun pop of color, they act as a visual bridge, connecting your tableware, floral arrangements, and other decor elements. When you coordinate the napkin colors with the rest of your design, it creates a laid-back and polished look that pulls everything together effortlessly.

Embellishing

When it comes to your wedding theme, tailoring the place setting styling can truly immerse your guests in the experience. For a romantic garden wedding, you can take napkins to the next level by adding delicate floral accents or tying them with a dainty ribbon. These small but charming details bring an extra touch of enchantment and perfectly complement the natural beauty of your outdoor setting.
