Transform Your Guest Table in an Instant! Do You Know the Trick of Placing a 'Mirror' Under Flowers?

2017.03.22 published

I want a luxurious guest table but also want to save money...!

All the brides-to-be out there, have you decided on the floral arrangements for your guest tables? The floral arrangements will be in front of the guests throughout the reception. You must want them to be incredibly vibrant and luxurious♩

That said, flowers can be quite expensive. Just a slight upgrade can easily add over 1,000 yen per table, and there are brides who say, "I ended up paying an additional 8,000 yen per table for a quality I could accept!" Moreover, since you need a set of flowers for each guest table, just a small upgrade can accumulate to tens of thousands of yen in total.

However, unlike the flowers for the main table or bouquet, the distance between the guests and the guest table arrangements is close, so if you skimp too much, there might be a thought, "Did they cut corners?" You will want to decide on the floral arrangements for the guest tables where the extravagance of the flowers, the cost, and the bride's satisfaction align...!

[Tip] Placing a mirror under the guest table floral arrangements makes it look luxurious!

For brides who want to make their guest tables luxurious but don’t have a big budget, I recommend placing a "mirror" underneath the guest table floral arrangements＊

By placing a large mirror under the flowers, the flowers will reflect, making them appear more numerous and vibrant♩

There are many other advantages to placing a mirror under the guest table floral arrangements♡ This time, I will introduce the benefits of placing a mirror below the guest table floral arrangements＊

Benefits of using a mirror under the guest table floral arrangements ① Flowers look luxurious＊

The biggest benefit of placing a mirror under the guest table floral arrangements is that the flowers look more luxurious＊ The flowers are reflected in the mirror, making them appear more vibrant than if you just placed them directly on the table♩

Mirrors make small rooms appear larger, right? Similarly, placing a mirror under the flowers creates an illusion of having more flowers♡

It's delightful that the flowers can look luxurious without having to add more!

Benefits of using a mirror under the guest table floral arrangements ② Adds a sense of luxury to the venue＊

The next benefit is that it adds a sense of luxury to the venue＊ When a mirror is placed under the guest table floral arrangements, it reflects the lighting and creates a sparkling effect, giving a luxurious feel, don’t you think?

It's particularly recommended for brides having a sophisticated hotel wedding ambiance, as it enhances the luxury feel of the guest table, so definitely give it a try♩

Benefits of using a mirror under the guest table floral arrangements ③ The tabletop doesn’t look lonely＊

Another happy point of placing a mirror under the guest table floral arrangements is that it prevents the tabletop from looking lonely＊

While the flower arrangements are vibrant, the base of the floral container can often look bare. Many brides place candles or scatter flower petals to avoid this...

By placing a mirror underneath the guest table, the tabletop will not look lonely at all◎ While you might think it could appear a bit bare if nothing is placed, just having one mirror can instantly elevate the luxurious ambiance♡

For example, placing sparkling crystals on top of the mirror can make the table even more vibrant♩

Benefits of using a mirror under the guest table floral arrangements ④ Candles add even more beauty♡

Placing a mirror under the guest table and adding candles creates an incredibly romantic ambiance♡ The light from the candles reflects off the mirror, creating a sparkling and dreamy environment♩

Don’t you think placing tulips in a glass container is lovely? A glass vase allows the view through to showcase the romantic light created by the mirror without obstruction◎

Benefits of using a mirror under the guest table floral arrangements ⑤ It often costs less than adding more flowers

The final benefit I want to introduce involves the cost aspect＊ The mirrors placed under the guest table floral arrangements usually range from about 1,000 yen to 3,000 yen per table, depending on the wedding venue♩

Therefore, it is often cheaper than adding a lot of extra flowers＊ Since it changes the atmosphere more than simply adding flowers, it’s great to have all these advantages at such a reasonable price♡

[With numerous benefits♡] Try placing a mirror under your guest table floral arrangements♩

I’ve introduced the benefits of placing a mirror under the guest table floral arrangements＊ It makes the floral arrangements look luxurious, enhances the ambiance, and helps keep the budget in check; there's no reason not to use a mirror♡
