Textural Flowers
-
When the colors pink and green pair, many immediately think of beautiful flowers. Play off of this association by featuring flowers heavily in your table linens. To make your inclusion of flowers a bit less-expected, add textural flowers to preexisting table linens. Purchase green or pink table linens along with silk flowers with relatively flat heads, such as gerbera daisies. Pluck the heads off of these silk flowers and, using hot glue, add them to your linens, creating a border of these flowers or simply adding them haphazardly around the linens.
Mixed Prints
-
Give your space an artistic and exciting feel by mixing prints in your linen selection. Instead of using solid pinks or greens, select different prints and mix and match them in your table layout. You will create more excitement in your wedding space and save yourself some cash as you can likely purchase these mix-and-match pieces much more cheaply than pieces that match perfectly.

Checkerboard
-
Create a clean and contemporary look by crafting checkerboard table linens. Using squares of solid pink and green, create quilted checkerboards to top each table. Make solid-colored napkins in corresponding pinks and greens and place them along the table, alternating the colors between each place setting. To truly carry this theme through, use paint to craft pink and green checkerboards with matching pieces to place at the table's center. Allow your guests to take these games as wedding souvenirs.
"Shades of..." Tables
-
Instead of mixing your pink and green at each table, dedicate one hue to each table by creating a "shades of..." table design. Alternate between featuring pink and green on each table. Instead of just using one shade of the hue assigned to that table, mix it up, creating excitement in your table linen arrangement. For example, pair a pale pink tablecloth with hot pink napkins and place mats with a pink print. Repeat the process on your green tables, washing your space in different shades of these selected hues.
