? 1. Barn Wedding – Rustic Charm
Nothing says “cosy countryside romance” quite like a barn wedding. Gauze runners in taupe, white, or green look incredible against wooden trestle tables.
Style Idea:
Lay your runner loosely down the centre (no need to iron — the texture adds to the charm), then scatter bud vases, greenery, and chunky candlesticks along it. The gauze softens the rustic timber and makes the whole look feel warm and inviting.

?? 2. Beach Wedding – Relaxed & Breezy
Planning a seaside celebration? A gauze runner was practically made for it. Lightweight and airy, it moves beautifully in the ocean breeze.
Style Idea:
Opt for our pale blue gauze runner to echo the water, then mix in seashells, driftwood, or neutral-toned ceramics. Add tealights in clear glass holders for a soft glow as the sun sets — picture-perfect for those golden-hour photos.

? 3. Luxe Wedding – Chic & Polished
Even in a glamorous setting, gauze works its magic by bringing softness to an otherwise sleek and polished look.
Style Idea:
Choose the deep forest green gauze runner and style it with gold flatware, glass candle holders, and crisp white roses. It’s that subtle contrast — plush but understated — that makes the whole tablescape feel sophisticated yet inviting.

Tipi weddings are all about layering textures and earthy details. Gauze runners fit right in, giving rustic tables an extra dash of romance.
Style Idea:
Try white or a mix of coloured gauze runners to add depth. Pair with wildflowers, amber glass bottles, and rattan chargers. Finish with twinkling fairy lights overhead for that dreamy boho atmosphere.

Yes — even the grandest ballroom can benefit from a gauze runner! They soften the formality and bring a touch of modern romance to traditional table styling.
Style Idea:
Go for taupe or ivory gauze, laid smoothly along round tables. Top with low floral centrepieces, elegant glassware, and gold-rimmed tealight holders for extra sparkle. The look is refined but not stuffy.
