As the temperature cools and the daylight get shorter, it is finally starting to feel like Fall here in Atlanta. Hallelujah! With the holidays swiftly approaching, this time of the year makes me reflect on family, friends, parties and good food. If you are planning to host a holiday dinner party, this blog post is for you. Here are five inspirational ways to upgrade your table style and impress your guests for your next dinner party.
1. Name Place Cards
Personalization is always a plus. Consider featuring name place cards as part of your table décor. Whether written on card stock or a unique piece that could be used as a keepsake, your guests will surely feel special knowing that a place was created just for them.
2. Dinnerware & Flatware Feature
Not into name place cards? No worries. Make your dinnerware and flatware center of attention. Whether you have formal china and silverware that's a family heirloom or uniquely different dinnerware that you love, try making it the focal point of your table décor to impress your guests.
3. Menu Display
You cannot go wrong with a printed menu displayed as part of your table décor. Try displaying a dinner menu as part of each place setting, allowing guests to anticipate the fabulous meal to come.
4. Fresh Flowers
There’s something about fresh flowers that brings a room to life. Need I say more? You can never go wrong with adding fresh flowers to your tablescape. Use flowers to add color, texture, height and interest to your table. Make it as fancy or as simple as you want.
5. Table Theme
If you want to play up a holiday theme for your party, be sure to incorporate those elements in you table décor. Add simple, visual interest and color by displaying items that speak to your party theme.
