Have you ever seen a Dutch still-life painting? Well, prepare to bring art to life. Bowls of seasonal fruits and vegetables look as rustic and vibrant in person as they do on canvas—and they're officially trending on wedding tablescapes. Think of this concept as an extension of farm-to-table eating. After all, there's absolutely nothing stopping you from munching on these apple, pomegranate, and carrot displays at the end of the night! How's that for sustainable wedding décor?

So you love the idea, but you're not sure where to start. That's where we come in. Thanks to the following beautiful, bountiful examples, you'll discover just how to style your favorite fruits and veggies at your wedding reception. Whether you opt for a museum-quality arrangement that's filled to the brim with an assortment of the season's best harvest or choose one fruit and play up its color with supporting florals, there are so many ways to adapt this particular centerpiece trend for your fête. The best part? Produce makes an excellent addition to your reception tables, whatever your wedding style. Pair your favorite fruits and veggies with foliage, flowers, and pretty hardware, and your big-day tablescapes will be complete.

From candlelit spreads and baskets brimming with produce to petite vase displays, the following farm-fresh wedding centerpieces are definitely ones to bookmark—especially if you're planning a late summer or early fall wedding. Here, some of our favorite looks, styled with veggies and fruits alike. If artichokes, persimmons, and pears inspire you, you'll be head-over-heels for these fresh, festive designs.
