Work with the table, not against it
Round banquet tables, long dining tables and small café tables need different proportions. Tell us how many guests share each table and whether meals are plated or served in shared dishes. Account for glassware, menus, table numbers and any gifts already occupying the surface. Flowers need their own space without making the table difficult to use.
Consider sightlines
Low arrangements can encourage conversation across the table. Taller designs may suit some layouts, but their containers and stems still need careful positioning. Ask the venue or planner where speakers, screens and the stage will be. A centrepiece that looks good in a close photograph should also work from a seated guest's viewpoint.
Connect the flowers to the event
Share the linen colour, room photographs and your preferred palette. Use the same design language across welcome arrangements and dining tables without making every piece identical. Discuss flower availability and an agreed substitution approach, particularly if a specific variety is central to your vision.
Count every table
Include the main dining tables, the couple's or head table and any welcome or registration tables. Ask whether containers are hired and who handles collection. If guests may take flowers home, agree this in advance so hired vases are not accidentally removed.
A clear quantity list helps keep the quotation and final room plan aligned. View our event decoration or wedding services and send Petik Bunga your table plan for discussion.
