1. Start with a dazzling table to set the undertone. We used the Sophie Dining Table for this particularly unique tablescape. This table is too pretty to cover up with linen!
2. Tableware Textures: Mix up your choices of china, charger, flatware, and glassware used to add texture to your table. The exquisite items featured here are the platinum rim dinner plate, silver beaded clear charger, pink debutant water goblet, Modo line champagne flute and wine glass, and the Lucca line dinner fork and knife.
3. The Right Fold: An elegant napkin fold will add volume to your table setting. Choose one that matches the theme you are going for. We used a traditional 3 tier pouch fold in a Tiffany Blue that keeps it modern chic. Click here to see the tutorial and try it yourself: 3 Tier Napkin Pouch
4. Keep the Palette Simple: Look for colors that will brighten up your table and keep them to a minimum. We chose 5 that would give this table a beachy fresh feel: Tiffany Blue, Sea Mint, Light Pink, Silver and White.
5. Incorporate Outside Natural Materials: Your table can say it all just from the décor that is used. Using materials that are normally found outside adds an earthy yet classy tone to your table. For our shoreline themed tablescape we combined shattered sea glass pieces, Pink Murex sea shells in a mixture of sizes, and white candles in clear and blue Vintage Tea Lights and taper candle votives. They gleam beautifully against the mirrored table.
6. Make It One-of-a-Kind: Simple embellishments placed intentionally along your table will charm your guests. From monograms to handwritten name placers, adding one or three special touches will give you that extra wow factor. Featured here are custom-made menus written in Calligraphy style lettering on Old Fashioned Antique parchment sheets.
7. Sit Down & Enjoy: What pairs well with a stunning table setting? A set of gorgeous dining chairs! Like these White Louis Dining Chairs we used to add the finishing touch to this look.
