Dried Flowers
I made a large floor arrangement with dried flowers which was positioned at the end of the table with the table runners behind, which hung over the end, providing the floral display with a pretty backdrop. I used a mixture of wild grasses, delicate honesty, poppy heads and statement fan palms to add loads of texture and depth. I placed fun disco balls next to the arrangement on the floor to make it a fun wow factor piece, that added something a bit different to the table set up. You could use something like this to create a floral boho meadow for your ceremony area, then after you have tied the knot, you could re-position the pieces at the foot of your wedding reception tables. This is great for re-purposing your decor and would save you a ton of money.
Place Settings
Seagrass wicker charger mats make the perfect place setting base for a boho wedding table. There natural texture is perfect for adding your other details. Here I have styled them with white crockery, silver cutlery (to tie in with the silver disco balls), a white knotted linen napkin, menus and name tags, finished with a tying mini disco balls for a fun addition with some black suede ribbon.
Linens
Floaty fabric that drapes, like these chiffon table runners is a firm favourite of mine for dressing the base foundations of your tables. You can ruffle it up to add lots of texture or you can create layers like I have here, with white chiffon on the bottom and brown runners on the top. I used the same material on the chairs to tie everything together.
Bud Vases
I used vintage stoneware bottles that I had collected from antique shops to display a variety of delicate dried flowers. I use flowers that were perfect for the bohemian look with feathers, bunny tails and ruscus. I combined these with white pots that I had painted myself. I used the bicarbonate of soda and acrylic paint technique that I had seen on Pinterest, to transform cheap charity shop finds into vessels of beauty. They added an amazing texture and interest to the table.
I really love creating with dried flowers in my wedding work, and I've had lots of requests from boho brides to make boho style bridal accessories to compliment their outfit as they really want cohesion all the way through their wedding. I make hair accessories like below, such as hair combs and flower crowns that suit a boho bride, you can find them here.
