If you prefer minimal tablescapes but want to do something different then add a pop of color. Choose one item like a colored charger to sit under your neutral plates. You can be bold with hues of pink or greens. I chose a light blue color. If you prefer neutral colors then add a black charger to contrast with your white plates. Contrast is always key for designing the perfect tablscape.

Set the tone for your table with glassware. Glass goblets are great for drinking cocktails, sipping juices, and more. I do enjoy tall tumblers too since they’re sturdy and less likely to spill from clumsy guests LOL. I didn’t use them this time. Instead, I used hobnob glasses. I love the texture and how they look on a simple tablescape.

Spring dinners are my favorite. Another tip for the perfect tablescape is….fresh flowers! Everyone always appreciates freshly picked flowers that will brighten up the table. It can also be a good conversation starter to get the evening going. Pick flowers that will compliment your table and the vibe of the evening.
Below are some outfit ideas for your next dinner party.
