Are you trying to plan the perfect modern wedding — complete with coordinating decorations, a walk down the aisle, and a contemporary twist? A wedding can be beautiful, tasteful, and suited to your style without all those extra ruffles and frills. Keeping it simple, classy, and uncluttered is a modern approach. If you're an event planner or bride with simple tastes and the desire for a straightforward but stunning wedding, a minimalist theme is perfect for you. To bring your understated look to the forefront and tie your wedding together in a subtle way, you need a simple but coherent balance of minimalist wedding decor, modern flower arrangements and contemporary lighting to match your attire and aesthetic.
Minimalist Wedding Table Decorations, Floral Decorations, and Lighting Decor
For your minimalist wedding table decorations, you'll want contemporary wedding ideas to keep it simple, sweet, and to-the-point while still aiming for modern elegance. Limit your color scheme to a few neutrals with no more than one warm or cool shade if you crave a little more color, and build your decor arrangements accordingly around that palette. Focus on only one or two essential items or elements in each styling to keep it minimal and sophisticated. Need some inspiration? Here are a few modern wedding decoration ideas:
-
Understated Monochrome Bouquet: Your bridal bouquet and floral arrangements will most likely be the most flowery of all your decor, but don't overdo it with the color and variety of your blossoms. You can choose two or three flower colors from your color scheme if you want more visual interest, but a brilliant way to achieve a unique minimalist look is to pick a single shade and then build a monochrome bouquet. Settle on one or two types of flowers and arrange your assortments in varying shades of the same color — for example, create a bouquet of white, cream, and yellow roses and ranunculi.
-
Sleek Pillar Plate: Your lighting can cast a warm glow without being too flashy — in fact, you can use candles as your contemporary centerpieces with a minimalist aesthetic. For this minimalistic display, arrange white or cream pillar or taper candles of varying heights on a simple mirrored tray. Whether you choose round or square for your candles and tray, they make for a stark, minimal arrangement that reflects soft light throughout your venue.
-
Single-Bloom Centerpiece: If you're looking for just the right balance of minimalism and elegance, appeal to your aesthetic sensibilities by putting single flower stems on stark display. Choose a bold, sweet bloom that speaks for itself — like a water lily or peony — and place it on its own in an understated crystal vase for a stunning but simple centerpiece. Arrange greenery around the base for a subtle complementary touch.
