Tablescape Inspiration

The holiday season may be over, but hosting never stops in the life of an event planner.

So, as we gear up for another fun-filled year of events, we thought we’d share some of the most inspiring and original table settings we have had the chance to create over the years – in no particular order. 

When you make it to the end, let us know your favorite(s)!

As usual, it all starts with the details…

But it doesn’t stop there! Placement seriously matters when creating the perfect tablescape.

Centerpieces are so much more than flowers and the possibilities are truly endless. Incorporating branded concepts into your centerpieces can really elevate your tablescape.

Candle light is a perfect way to set the mood for a romantic evening.

Or add real flowers to let guests get up close and personal with the design.

Height is another great way to add variety to a tablescape.

But of course, design does not stop at the table top…

Of course, florals and lighting aren’t the only ways to wow guests with a tabletop design.

Remember, it’s not just about what is happening at the actual tables, but beyond them as well.

And like most things in events, when it’s not about the big and bold; it’s all about the thought that went into the little details to make an event become a day to remember.
