There's no right or wrong way to throw a bridal shower—but even if the star of the menu is pizza from the bride's favorite spot, the tablescape deserves a little attention. Whether you're hosting a sit-down meal or dishing things out buffet-style, there are a few key pieces you can pick up to make the day feel extra special. You don't have to blow your entire budget to make it happen, either. Skip the expensive flower arrangements in favor of a more laid-back centerpiece; swap stodgy china for vibrant dinnerware that feels fresh; trade in boxes and boxes of tea lights for some elegant taper candles. We found 12 pieces to help you pull it off.

Keep reading to shop our edit of chic bridal shower table decor. All that's missing are some novelty paper signs—but we'll leave that up to the bridesmaids.
