centerpiece on the table or can be added to the base of the table. The color of confetti can be matched with

centerpiece then gold confetti should be used. It can also be thrown around the table runners or even

between them. Contrasting confetti usually looks best.

Such decorations can be purchased both online as well offline. Apart from the above listed ones, there are

other decorations also available like Valentines Day decorations which can be purchased avidly.
