hi!! im new here, and i need some advice. My bf and i are going to finally do it in a couple of years. I know it seems like a long time, but i plan on doing alot of it myself so i know the sooner i get everything started, hopefully the less hassle ill have.

So the colors are red and black, with maybe a burst of ivory or cream to break up the severity. I was thinking of having each table as a different thing that is red. like strawberries, apples, hearts, candy, feathers, and so on. or i was thinking about pairing them up, like candy and apples, strawberried and hearts, you get the idea. 

the only thing is, im afraid it will all look too random and thrown together, maybe even hectic. But i dont want everytable to be a copy of the other. what do you guys think? ive been wrestleing with this one for weeks!!

As long as you keep to a theme, it should be fine. Try to keep it all around the same shade of red to make it more matchy.

If you want to do different table decorations, think about doing rectangular tables and having the centerpieces run the length of the table. You could do red apples and black crystals in a vase on one table, on another you could have strawberries in a glass bowl with cream colored roses on top. Below are a couple of pictures for inspiration. Another cute idea would be short bunches or red and cream roses in square cases in the center and black feather boas on either side going down the entire length of the table.
