Sequin Chair Covers

I love anything sparkly so top of my list for chair decorations has to be sequin chair covers. Add some shimmer and sparkle to your wedding day by choosing silver, gold or rose gold sequins – if you want to keep this glittering look a little more muted then opt for matte rather than shiny.

Lace Chair Covers

Add a vintage finishing touch to your wedding day by topping your chairs with sheer lace. If you have gorgeous chairs at your wedding and you don’t want to hide them then this is a great way to give some personality without hiding the gorgeous design.

Hearts And Flowers

A wicker heart with flowers is the most beautiful finishing touch for your wedding chairs. If you love this idea but you’re planning a wedding on a budget then you could use these cute details to mark the happy couple’s chairs.

Burlap Chair Sashes

Forget traditional (and sometimes garish!) chair sashes and replace vibrant satin with rustic burlap. This is a simple and inexpensive idea to give your wedding chairs a rustic makeover – perfect for a woodland wedding or a barn venue.

Satin and Chiffon

Don’t be afraid to mix your fabrics – satin and chiffon work beautifully together and we love this grey and coral colour scheme.

A Touch of Tulle

Add some sheer and pretty detail to your wedding chairs by adding a length of tulle around each chair – bonus points if this matches the fabric of your wedding dress!

Ruffled Chair Sashes

Try ruffled chair sashes to add something a little bit different to your wedding reception – it’s a subtle way to add some style to your day.

Chalk Board Chair Signs

Chalk board signs not only give your chairs a unique finishing touch, they can also double up as place cards.

Wreath Chair Decorations

Speaking of winter weddings – why not add some festive cheer to your day by hanging winter wreaths to your chairs.

Floral Décor

Add a small cluster of your wedding flowers to each of your wedding chairs if you are looking for the perfect summer wedding idea.

Fabric and Flowers

Tie vibrant strips of fabric to your chairs for a fun and eclectic wedding style – an easy to re-create DIY wedding idea.

Woven Fabric

Weave a length of fabric into your chairs for a simple and effective finishing touch – we love a pale coral shade.

Strings of Pearls

Tie strings of pearls to your wedding chairs to give them some Gatsby style glamour.

Heart Garlands

If you want to add a touch of romance to your wedding then heart garlands are a cute finishing touch.

So there are fifteen ways to decorate your wedding chairs – without a traditional chair sash in sight!
