You can create an instant sense of cohesion and elegance by covering tables with table linens. Apply these tips to generate quinceanera main table decoration ideas worthy of the quince and her court. They’re also perfect for guest tables, adding unmatched elegance on a budget.

1. Begin with a Linen Tablecloth

You might begin with classic, crisp, white linen tablecloths to add a clean sense of elevated formality. For a more youthful quince, you can instead choose tablecloths based on the quinceanera’s preferred color scheme. Cover every table with a single color, or mix and match to create visual interest.

2. Add Elegance with Cloth Napkins

Simple, classy details, such as including cloth napkins, also enhance the event’s formality and elegance. If you choose white table linens, the cloth napkins can add a youthful pop of color. That can help tie in a theme and add the sense of personality that every quinceanera craves.

3. Consider Cloth Napkin Folding as Decor

Consider folding your cloth napkins in a fun way, creating a starburst, rose, or even a bow. This appeals to the trendy “coquette” aesthetic that teenage girls love. It’s a simple way to add interest and whimsy to a quince table. Plus, if you’re already renting cloth napkins, it can save you money on décor.

4. Embrace Femininity with Chair Sashes & Table Skirts

Even something as simple as a chair sash or table skirt can enhance the atmosphere in a venue.

Chair sashes are giant bows that add a girly touch to your event seating. You can find sashes in every color. You can even accessorize them with flowers or greenery to match a quince theme. It can be most cost effective to rent chair sashes, which you can return easily at the end of the celebration.

Quinceanera Centerpiece Ideas for Tables

Below, we’ll share our favorite ideas for table decorations for quinceaneras. We’ll include ideas for a few stunning centerpieces that can elevate your tables. Along with the linen recommendations above, they can transform your venue into a scene out of a fairytale.

5. Start with Your Head Table

The head table should have the most stunning, elaborate, and special centerpiece and decorations. Ideally, the décor on the head table should reflect the interests and preferred aesthetic of the quinceanera. It should be extravagant and may include a floral arrangement, balloons, candles, and even small chandeliers.

Your guest table centerpieces should complement but not outshine your head table centerpiece. Consider using elements of the head table décor on each table. Perhaps each table will include one type of flower found in the large arrangement on the main table. Maybe they will each include a smaller version of the quince’s arrangement in a mason jar. They might even be simple, featuring a single candle in a style found on the head table.

The result will be a more cohesive event space that is visually interesting but free from clutter.

6. Play with Levels

Consider tall, vertical centerpieces that rise high above tables and make the décor seem grander. Not only do they add status to each table, but they also have social perks. Tall, narrow centerpieces make it easier to see guests across the table. That facilitates guest interaction, making the event feel more lively and engaging.

Popular options include tall vases with a floral arrangement at the top, high above eye level. You can fill the vase with battery-operated fairy lights to add an additional fairytale detail. You can also leave them empty to further enhance sightlines for guests.

7. Embrace the Elegance of Candles

You can play with levels to achieve elegance in other ways, too. For example, choose ornate candles of different heights. A cluster of candles is opulent and can help the quince incorporate all her favorite colors.

Plus, candles can help facilitate a clear shift mid-celebration. Start with the candles unlit. Then, when it’s time for dancing, lower the lights and light the candles. It will add an intimate and romantic touch to the space without any extra effort.

If your venue won’t allow open flames, electric candles with a flickering effect still look fantastic. As a bonus, you can decorate them with ribbons, silk flowers, and other ornaments without risk.
