(Closed) Round table decor help needed Runners or napkins that is the question

Okay so I’ve found a great supplier for table linens that is very reasonable so I’m checking out my options with her. First off, my venue is all round tables that seat 8. They come with ivory tablecloths and napkins. My colors are latte and blush pink and since my flowers will be the pink, I’d like to add some latte into the table decor.

I first considered overlays but in my opinion it would add TOO much latte and why cover up the ivory tablecloths completely.

Then I started looking at table runners, something with some texture (pintuck, etc..) or a little pattern. I wasn’t sure how I felt about runners on round tables but I’ve seen pictures and I think it looks fine when they’re all laid in the same direction. My mother however doesn’t seem to like the idea.

My mom is suggesting instead of a runner to use a cloth napkin (in latte) in the center of the table to put my centerpieces on and then have latte napkins at each setting.

Any thoughts on this?

You did chargers at each setting? That’s a great idea but if its at each seat I’m guessing my one napkin would be more economical for me. Thanks for your input!! I do agree that runners can be a challenge on rounds and I’m certainly anal/OCD enough that it just may bother me.
