Set a Beautiful Wedding Table: 5 Alternative Place Settings

Simple floral place settings harmonize well with a Wyoming ranch wedding.

It's nice that there are no set-in-concrete rules regarding how to plan a wedding. Yes, you want to stick to the budget. Yes, you want to stay on schedule. Yes, you want to have everyone wear nice clothes (unless your clients are naturists, of course). Okay, so there are definitely rules ... but there's a wide latitutde of what's acceptible in today's wedding that's essentially cutting every wedding couple a big break. Everyone can relax, take a deep breath, and pay attention to personal style over expected formality. Here are some alternative place settings that caught our eye.

Hey there Johnson, I liked the one that you placed second. The pacific palisade wedding which is a mixture of traditional Americana and Hindu with some nature filled in it. So unique and loved it very much. Thanks for the share Jay. Cheers
