Reception Buffet

If you're not having a seated reception, you can still get creative with your buffet tables. Instead of opting for the standard-issue white, rented tablecloth, make it more memorable by dressing the table in a colorful linen trimmed in festive grosgrain ribbon. Wrap silverware in colorful napkins and finish off with a ribbon and sticker or label with your new last initial. Green branches (like the fig branches here) make a big statement without breaking the bank.
