Elegant 25th Anniversary Table Design
It’s crazy to think that my husband and I have been married 25 years! To honor that special milestone, I put together a beautiful and elegant 25th anniversary table featuring our wedding china and silver, as well as a colorful flower arrangement, showcasing flowers we used in our wedding.
Table Design
This table design is simple, yet elegant. I used our Lenox Federal Cobalt China, which I still love to this day. If you have followed me for any amount of time, you know that blue and white is my absolute favorite color combination. Lenox does not make Federal Cobalt anymore, but I have found pieces on replacement.com. My Reed and Barton Busrgundy Silver is just as beautiful today as it was 25 years ago. It is a timeless classic and I adore it.
I set the table with the dinner plate, salad plate and bread plate all in one pretty stack. This adds dimension and makes the otherwise simple plates pop. I added the silver and put the folded napkin to the left of the plate stack.
The set of white monogram napkins has been one of my favorites for years. My three favorite places to get embroidered linens are tewlip designs, preppy paper girl and various other shops on Etsy. Monogrammed linens add such a special touch to any table!
Flower Arrangement
Putting together beautiful flower arrangements is truly one of my favorite things to do. I wrote about some of my favorite simple hydrangea arrangements in another blog post. Going to Trader Joe’s and looking at all of their pretty flower options makes me giddy! Anyone else feel the same way!? The flowers at our wedding were gorgeous and had every color under the rainbow, so I wanted to replicate the look on my Elegant 25th wedding anniversary table.
The arrangement started with a base of 3 white hydrangeas, 3 blue hydrangeas and 3 green hydrangeas. I always use a sharp knife to cut the stems when I bring hydrangeas home. I either dunk the head of the flower in a bowl of water to soak, or spray the entire flower and leaves with water before arranging them. Hydrangeas love water and this step helps them last longer!
After the hydrangeas are in place, I added a hot pink and yellow spray roses, purple stock and orange roses to complete the arrangement. I kept turning the flowers around and adding to the arrangement to make sure to get the look I desired.
After finishing the arrangement I sprayed all of the flowers with Crowing Glory spray. It is amazing and makes arrangements last several days longer than they otherwise would. I change the water every day or two and use the flower food provided as well! You can find blue and white porcelain all throughout our home. I used 2 large blue and white jars on either side of the flower arrangement to complete the table. I love how it turned out!!
