- 1). Scatter white votive candle holders around the tables, and fill them with candles. Candles are not only decorative, they help illuminate the dining area. White candle holders offer a chic, minimalist feel, especially if the candle holders are frosted. For a contemporary tone, use square or rectangular holders instead of traditional cylinders.
- 2). Decorate the table with tall, clear bud vases, which hold only one or two flower stems, and use them to punctuate your tables with strategic and dramatic pops of color. The chic and urban design should shy away from the traditional large bouquet in the center of each table.
- 3). Place brightly colored fruit, such as oranges, apples, tangerines, lemons or limes, into a large, clear vase in the center of the wedding reception table. A fruit centerpiece fits the chic and urban theme with its minimalist style. Alternately, place pieces of fruit on top of candle holders at various heights in the center of the table.
- 4). Place a journal book and a pen on every table. Guests can sign and write notes to the bride and groom, and the books also serve as a decorative item — especially if they're covered in the wedding colors. For a chic and urban wedding use white journal books, or choose a bold color that serves as an accent piece.
