Anyone who is about to plan their wedding or is in the process of doing so is probably tormented by many questions. What should be the main colors? What style should be created? Which flowers and plants should decorate the hall? Without a doubt, planning the garden or hall decoration for the wedding is a challenge. But fortunately, these days you can quickly find some inspiration and ideas that can help you at least a little with every decision. A wonderful idea, for example, is to use geometric solids or geometric shapes and patterns to create unique accents in the wedding decorations. And the great thing about this idea is that you can use it for any wedding style. Regardless of whether you are decorating the wedding in vintage style or have chosen a modern decoration, geometric patterns and shapes as well as objects will definitely be a real eye-catcher.
Decorating a wedding with geometric shapes – imaginative suggestions
Be inspired by the following ideas for a geometric wedding and set effective accents that no one will soon forget. Whether for floral decoration for a wedding, as an accent for a cake or as a background for various areas, the possibilities are numerous. Geometry can even be the main theme of the wedding and can be hinted at by the invitations. Once you have chosen the location, you can use the geometry in a variety of ways. How exactly you will find out below.
A decorative background for the wedding ceremony
The wedding ceremony is of course the most important moment of the entire wedding. This is where you, as a wedding couple, are the center of attention. All eyes are on you and the majority of wedding photos are taken there. Therefore, it is natural that this area should be given special attention. While you exchange vows, it would be nice if a beautiful background adorns the altar. And here is our first idea with which you can decorate a geometric wedding. Instead of the classic arch, you can use a geometric variant. Whether you choose a hexagon, a triangle or a circle is entirely up to you. The material doesn't matter either. This should simply match the rest of the wedding decoration.
You can also use geometric figures in this area with smaller accessories. Lanterns and candles, for example, are a great option for the wedding ceremony. With them you can design the floor and at the same time get a certain romance. And what would a wedding be without a certain amount of romance? In general, there are a wide variety of options when it comes to designing the altar and the surrounding area. Always remember to use geometric accents sparingly so that they can be shown to their best advantage. And after the wedding, this area can then be used for various portraits of the guests.
Decoration ideas with terrariums
You can also design a wedding geometrically with the help of such terrariums and lanterns. You can plant the terrarium using moss or soil. But air plants are also great. Smaller areas such as corners of the wedding hall can be made more interesting with such arrangements, but side tables or the wedding couple's table, as well as the reception table with the guest book, can also be framed with terrariums and lanterns of this type. Just make sure that you can still get to the respective table easily.

The lanterns and terrariums are available in different metal colors. So if you have planned a wedding with gold or copper accents, they are great for this purpose and you can easily use them when decorating the wedding. In the picture above you can see models with black frames. They were staged with the help of old suitcases. In combination with the black table candles, a certain mystical and, thanks to the antique suitcases, also a vintage atmosphere is created, which will certainly make some of the guests reminisce. A great idea for both outdoor and indoor wedding celebrations.
Choose decoration for the table
The terrarium decoration is also perfect for table design. With their help you can complement all the other geometric accents in the hall. As you have probably already noticed, the terrarium decorations are also available in a wide variety of sizes and, above all, shapes, so that they can be easily set up in groups. Elongated designs can be used wonderfully as vases or as imitation vases, which creates a special eye-catcher on the table.
The lanterns and terrariums also have another advantage: they can continue to be used after the wedding. Decorate your apartment with them and create romantic areas in the kitchen, living room or even in the bathroom. So it's definitely worth investing in.
The terrariums give the room a certain industrial atmosphere and can be combined with any flowers, textiles and materials. Succulents in particular are very popular, which are ideal for decorationis in green. But roses and peonies in pastel tones are also perfect and create a romantic vintage atmosphere. Combine the flowers with the pretty accessories to create the impression that the plants grew naturally and by themselves in the terrariums. When you decorate for a wedding, there are no limits to your imagination. The main thing is that a certain harmony is created and you like it. After all, this is your big day.
Design the wedding invitation geometrically
When you're planning how you're going to decorate the wedding, be sure to think about the invitations too. These are not just a simple map that announces the date and location. The invitation cards should also give an insight into the decor of the upcoming wedding. They give away, so to speak, what style and atmosphere awaits guests. Just because the time between sending out the invitations and the wedding itself is usually relatively long, that doesn't mean that the two things shouldn't be viewed as a whole. Quite the opposite.
If you want to use the geometry as an accent, you can also do this with the cards. You decide for yourself whether you shape the card itself or even the envelope geometrically or draw subtle geometric patterns. In addition, the invitations can be inexpensive if you simply design them yourself. To do this, use the computer and, more precisely, special programs that are available on the Internet for free. Maybe you are also artistically talented? Then you can even add pretty, individual drawings to the printed cards and make them even more unique! Some guests are sure to keep this invitation card as a souvenir.
Decorate the cake with geometric patterns
Would you have had the idea to use geometric patterns as decoration for the wedding cake? Of course, the idea is suitable for any type of cake, provided it is a little simpler overall. HimselfWedding cakes with black designor they are a great basis. The cakes with a marble look are particularly popular, so they are definitely worth considering. The appearance of stone and metal combined is definitely very impressive. The geometric pattern with which you decorate the cake and therefore the wedding can also be “engraved” into the icing or topping or have a different color instead of metallic. Again, it all depends on your taste, as well as the rest of the wedding decorations.
Or how about simply using a geometric figure instead of the classic cake figures with a bride and groom? You can later use these as decoration for your home. Maybe you can also make an edible figure? You can also decorate both versions with pretty flowers and flower arrangements. Talk to your pastry chef and explain to him what your ideas are. His experience will help make the right choice. Nowadays, some people prefer small tarts instead of one big one. You can also decorate cupcakes or muffins by using geometric accents. Above you can see a beautiful cake model where the bottom tier is classic round while the second tier is hexagonal. The marble effect and the golden metallic color were once again attractively combined with each other.
Design with attractive signs
Such signs are not only useful for decorative purposes, although they should of course also make a beautiful impression. However, their main function is to reassure guests that they have arrived at the right place and to welcome them. Especially at an outdoor wedding, the individual areas such as the wedding altar, dance floor, gift table and wedding altar are often quite far from each other and so that no one gets lost and everyone finds their place as quickly as possible, such signs can also be used as signposts. Very simple things can be used for this, such as clothes racks or stands for canvases and the like.
Whether made of wood, metal or glass is irrelevant. Shape plays the bigger role when you use these elements and decorate a geometric wedding. Decorate the signs with floral arrangements, but subtle enough not to hide the geometric shape. As you can see, you can again use lanterns or terrariums to add additional design to the signs.
Alternative to the ring cushion
If you are one of those people who would like to consider something different instead of the classic elements, then this idea is suitable for you. It not only has a practical side, but also a decorative one. Just imagine how attractive this terrarium with wedding rings will look next to the altar. And you can also use it to decorate the wedding after the wedding. Just find a nice place, be it on the dessert table or another side table or even on the bride and groom's table.
You can either fill the terrarium with a small cushion on which the rings lie or you can do it like in these two examples and use plants, flowers, soil, sand or gravel. This accessory can also be beautifully decorated. A little cotton can also help to support the rings well so that they don't get lost among the plants and it also gives the arrangement a certain romantic flair. We would like to emphasize once again that the rings should be stable so that you don't suddenly have to look for them during the wedding ceremony. That would only make the already nervous couple even more nervous. If necessary, you can also tie the rings tightly, as with theclassic ring pillowis usually done.
Hanging decorations with geometric shapes
Such hanging accessories are also very suitable for vintage-style decoration. Even if you want to make the decoration yourself, you can consider it. Just get the figures and tie ribbons, string or thin threads to them. With their help they are then attached to the ceiling. If you decorate the hall for the wedding with hanging elements, this has the advantage that you can include several levels in the decoration. This creates an even more beautiful atmosphere and the geometric figures and elements can be found everywhere. It's best to hang them in small or larger groups. The areas above the tables, the wedding altar or the bride and groom's table are suitable. Maybe you also have a special photo corner where all guests can have their photos taken? This can also be done with suchhanging decorations with plantsand flowers are decorated.
Since such figures have a relatively subtle design, they could quickly get visually lost up there. To prevent this, you can design them additionally. A few flowers here and there or even a string of lights are wonderful for this purpose. Lights in particular create a beautiful atmosphere. Take a string of LED lights and wrap it around the frames of the figures. Terrariums are not recommended for this type of decoration as the risk of injury is too high. It can quickly happen that a terrarium falls and the glass breaks.
Ideas for the reception table and other side tables
The reception table is the table near the entrance that all guests pass by. Therefore, it should be given enough attention when it comes to wedding decoration. This is usually where the guest book is located, for which there are many different versions these days. One of them can also be seen above. A glass box in a geometric shape is designed to store guests' greeting cards. A really nice idea, isn't it? But other side tables can also be given the finishing touches with geometric accents. So, an original shelf was chosen for the dessert table above, on which not only flower arrangements but also small-sized desserts are displayed. Original, isn't it?
