That special dinner party should include a fabulous Table Decorations
When you plan a dinner party or holiday feast, you pay very
close attention to your menu, ensuring you have all the ingredients to make your
dishes that much more memorable. Your table decoration should hold just as much
attention as your dinner dishes receive. You have to have fun in decorating
your table paying special attention to the color of the decorations and what
makes it even more special, such as the candle holders, flowers, vases, napkin
rings, candles and the other decorations on the table. You should also ensure that the linen,
silverware, and tableware accent the décor and blend together the theme to
which you are trying to achieve. When everything is planned out correctly, the
final product produces an attractive dining room table that you will be proud
of and a memory your guests will never forget. This is not only for holidays or
special occasions it’s perfect for that Sunday brunch, or afternoon tea with your
closest friends.
The best dining room tables combine table linens, serve ware,
tableware, and other fun accents to make an attractive looking dining room. If
you are having a dinner party or Sunday brunch, then you can fill colorful
vases with your favorite seasonal flowers. If you need more assistance with
planning one of these important dinner parties
If you are setting the table for a formal or intimate
dinner, candles on the table are a good way to set the tone for the right ambiance.
Make sure your candle holders match the décor you are seeking to achieve. Natural
materials, such as metal or wood can work with just about occasion. Intimate
dinners call for smaller holders such as glass or small metal holders. Flowers
are another way to enhance your table. Small intimate dinners call for delicate
flowers, formal dinners or brunches call for larger flowers. When selecting the
vase be sure to select the one that will not aggravate your guests while at the
table. One of the worst table settings I had to deal with over the years was a
dinner party at a friend home where they had these gaudy flower arrangements
that were so big you had to crane your neck to see the person across from you
while having a conversation. When I left that party that night, I vowed to
never allow myself to do that to any guest in the future. In addition, always
leave room on the table to set down dishes in between courses. Never allow
yourself to fill the middle of the table so much with decorations that you fail
to remember that guests will need to put hot dishes down.
Many friends have teased me over the years because I love linen
napkins and napkin rings. Both items just make a dinner table a little bit more
luxurious and elegant. One key suggestion when using metal napkin rings be sure
to match the metal to your silverware, never use silver flatware with gold
rings, just doesn’t look very nice together.
