Centrepieces play a role in decor for almost all Indian wedding functions, and it can be as minimalistic and elaborate as you would like. The type of centrepieces you choose should take in account various factors such as the venue style, decor theme, venue layout and stationery if any. Extravagant centrepieces can include larger than life fresh florals in glass vases or urns, round flower arches and cherry blossom trees. Whilst understated centrepieces could be grouped candle sticks, arrangement of florals in delicate bottles, crystal candelabras, floral rings or storm lanterns, which are just a snippet of the centrepieces we have available. At 1SW, we can source centrepieces to work around any theme you may have, may it be romantic, rustic, modern, traditional, whimsical or majestic!
