But with the right embellishments, you can transform even a standard folding chair into a beautiful part of your wedding vision. Here, check out our favorite ideas for your ceremony, sweetheart table, and reception tables.If there’s one topic that’s bound to get a wedding blogger a little hot under the collar, it’s the contentious issue of wedding chairs and in particular the rather gruesome, bog standard wedding chair cover. Go on… google wedding chair cover and you will see a plethora of unimaginative, uniformed chair covers with an array of vomit worthy sashes. I know I’m being a tad harsh but the chair cover and sash has come to represent everything I dislike about weddings.
Over-priced, unimaginative and totally lacking in personality. I’m really wondering if I got out of bed on the wrong side this morning! Anyways, after that little rant I’m super chuffed to share with you many, many ideas of how you can decorate your wedding chairs, after all, your wedding chairs are an integral part of your wedding styling and deserve more love than a cheap looking chair cover and sash… Ooops there I go again. Thankfully, wedding venues are starting to wise up and realise how important wedding chairs are and many a venue has invested in the chiavari chair. These chairs look great on their own or can be decorated in various ways from the simple, to the elaborate. I particularly love these chair jackets or sleeves. Much, much more stylish than your average synthetic looking chair cover… image credit: lace chair cover, linen chair jacket It could become a tad expensive to decorate each and every wedding chair in your venue with swathes and swathes of material… but not two special chairs.
One for the bride and one for the groom. image credit: draped lace & flowers, linen & flowers image credit: lace material and orchid It’s also popular [and cost effective] to decorate just the aisle chairs in your ceremony room. image credits: lace tie & flower Instead of fresh cuts of flowers, why not use a brooch or an inexpensive hair clip as the finishing touch to gather your drape. image credits: lace and vintage brooch, sparkly tulle and glam brooch Pretty flower corsages or flowers in jam jars [start eating the mayo / jam now] can liven up your wedding chairs and are easy to move from the ceremony to the reception venue. image credits: flower jar chair decoration, flower decoration Small posies of flowers and ribbons are über pretty and the ribbons can be easily incorporated into your colour scheme / style. image credit: white wooden chairs with burlap & hydrangea image credits: flowers and ribbons, flowers and ribbons
If you want to make a huge impact with fresh flowers on your wedding chairs, the statement floral is the answer. By adding more leaves it will help to keep the cost down. image credits: floral statement chair, floral wedding chair Bunches of lavender tied to your chairs create a lovely, natural and rustic look. These chalkboard name signs are adorable too. image credit: rustic chalk name sign image credit: moss chair decoration, burlap chair number Having a vintage influenced wedding?

Pom poms are the answer. They come in various colours, sizes and materials.

We’ve already talked about the chiavari chair which seems to be the norm for stylish wedding venues and we’ve discussed the vintage mix and match chairs [try purchasing these from ebay or scouring local car boot sales or contact a vintage hire company].
