Adding a Dash fo Colour and Texture

When planning the look of the tables you may want to add a dash of colour to either all or just a few tables.  Greece is famous for its embroidered table cloths and napkins so why not incorporate this into your theme. On any Island or the mainland you will find little shops showcasing an array of embroidered goods, some are eyesores and some are beautiful.  You will also be able to find a vendor that will make to order what you want, so you can design your own.

I like the idea of having maybe half of the tables with the coloured napkins/runners on them and the rest having the same pattern but in white.  Not only would it provide accents of colour to the dining area but also just having the alternating plain embroidery will give texture to the tables.

Afterwards, once washed, they would make lovely mementos of you special day for yourselves, your parents and your in-laws.
