Wedding chairs for your destination wedding, are they a big consideration? Oh my yes! Don’t go basic on the chairs. They need to be functional of course and you need to consider the comfort of your guests. They also need to look great in all your destination wedding photos! Ensure they fit your theme, your style and your vision and meet the needs of your guests. Let’s have a look at some wedding chairs from our Villa la Joya couples.

Velvet Wedding Chairs

Add a touch of lush with velvet chairs in a sumptuous color. This plush, richly textured fabric not only elevates the decor but also offers supreme comfort for guests as they dine and socialize. Alexis and Ronnie paired an elegant blue velvet chair with blue details in the table settings for their Villa la Joya wedding. Just gorgeous.

Wishbone Chairs

Crafted with a distinctive Y-shaped back and most often made of wood, wishbone chairs are a great choice for both modern and traditional weddings. They can be adorned with simple decorations like floral garlands or ribbons to match the wedding's theme, enhancing the overall aesthetic while maintaining their classic appeal. Kyla and Mike used classic wishbone chairs in a blonde wood for a fresh look around their reception tables at Villa la Joya. While Tara & Micah also chose wishbone chairs for their whimsical wedding reception.

Crossback Chairs

These are a top choice for outdoor weddings for their rustic charm and functional design. With a distinctive X-shaped back and a solid wooden frame, these chairs exude a warm, inviting vibe that fits outdoor venues like Villa la Joya so well! The simple frame makes it easy to dress up or down, depending on the formality of the event. Kristel and Manny (first pic) created a warm and inviting setting for their Villa la Joya wedding ceremony with crossback chairs in dark wood with comfortable, light seats.

Ghost Chairs

Boo! Ghost chairs! Made from transparent acrylic, these chairs keep the space feeling open and airy, perfect for creating an elegant, contemporary look. The look is oh-so subtle and is effective in not overpowering the natural beauty of the venue or intricate design elements, allowing table settings, floral arrangements, and other decorations to stand out. Marina and Luke (first 2 photos) incorporated ghost chairs both in the ceremony set up and in the Villa la Joya reception by the sea. Heavenly.

Chameleon Chair

Adaptable and elegant, chameleon chairs can be tailored to fit any decor style. With their sleek frame and comfortable seating, these chairs come with interchangeable covers and accessories, allowing for endless customization options. Dressed up with luxurious fabrics, vibrant sashes, or delicate floral details, chameleon chairs provide versatile, stylish seating for guests. Christina and Mark used a simply elegant chameleon chair in this pretty reception setting with a view of the sea at Villa la Joya.

Chiavari Chairs aka Tiffany Chairs

This chair just whispers “special event” and “Oh la la” elegance. We’ve seen chiavari chairs at big awards shows and featured at celebrity events, the chiavari chair (also known as the Tiffany chair) is popular with those seeking a sophisticated look. Their soft cushion and minimalist design make them a great choice for weddings. Cindy and Scott (first photo) incorporated chiavari chairs into their wedding reception decor, we love how well they connect with the glorious centerpiece. 

Cane Back Chairs

Vintage charm and delicate intricacy, cane back chairs work well for couples seeking a touch of classic elegance. The woven details of the cane paired with a wooden frame offers a light, airy feel. These chairs work beautifully in settings from rustic outdoor ceremonies to sophisticated poolside receptions. Mai and Ryan (first photo) chose these super pretty cane back chairs in white with natural fibers. A marvelous look for the seaside garden ceremony at Villa la Joya.

Bamboo Chairs

This is the chair for anyone seeking a more casual, beachy vibe for their wedding seating. The bamboo wood comes in a variety of shades and cushion options are endless. Decorate with ribbons and bows, florals or rustic pampas grass. Katie and Robert created an elevated rustic look with these bamboo chairs in an antique finish for their wedding reception by the Villa la Joya pool.

Bentwood Chairs

Bentwood chairs bring elegant curves and a classic look to your special event. Particularly well-suited to romantic and vintage-themed weddings they can also add a touch of sophistication to more modern settings. In natural wood or painted hues, bentwood chairs can be easily customized to match your wedding palette. Tiffany and Anthony opted for white bentwood chairs for the ceremony and black for the reception, pure elegancia at Villa la Joya.

Peacock Chairs

With fan-shaped high backs and woven details, peacock chairs make a stunning statement at weddings. Often crafted from rattan or wicker, they are typically used as VIP seating for the bride and groom. Peacock chairs can be adorned with flowers, vibrant textiles, or soft draping to complement the wedding's theme. Their striking design not only serves as a focal point but also creates enchanting, picturesque opportunities for wedding photos, blending beautifully with outdoor, beach, or garden settings. Tara and Micah’s sweetheart table with peacock chairs in rattan was perfect for a destination wedding by the sea.

Mix and Match

There are really no rules when it comes to selecting your wedding chairs, mix it up! Different chairs for different moments of the day and different elements of the venue. Tara and Micah incorporated the peacock chair, crossback chair for the ceremony and wishbone chair for the reception, total chair heaven with excellent taste and style.
