Tablecloths

The first thing you need to do when planning your Pinterest dinner party is finding the proper linens. Luckily this is where we come in! From what most inspiration photos are showing the most popular type of tablecloth is a raw and natural basic white linen. An important factor to making this party a success is allowing your tablecloth to be the blank canvas for the rest of your decor to capture your guests intrigue and attention. This gives the event more of a relaxed and vintage feel. From our selection of tablecloths we would suggest either our white or ivory faux linen. Another interesting thing some event planners have done to spice up their tablecloths is to use old recycled paper as the tablecloth so you can draw on it and leave unique designs.

Handmade Elements

Another very important element that goes along with the tablecloths is the handmade elements to the event. Many have taken to hand drawing their own invitations and menu cards adding a little bit of personal flair. Hosts have also begun to customise their glassware to match the theme and aesthetic of their party. For example, if they were hosting a party with a Mediterranean theme then the host could paint little lemons or the design of the infamous blue tiles on their wine glasses. One more personalized element that has been more popular in the event scene is ribbon bows. Hosts have been adding them in many places such as the stem of wine glasses or on top of menu cards.

Lighting

An additional factor to making your Pinterest dinner party extra memorable is the lighting. If your party does not take place in the day and you do not have the pleasure of natural day lighting you should consider alternatives to your lighting. Instead of using regular overhead lights use either candles or string lights to make your party feel more intimate. This can also be an opportunity to let you explore more creative options with your lighting. For example, instead of just regular string lights find some that work better with your theme, such as disco ball lights or coloured LED lights.

Exciting Table Setting Ideas For Your Canada Day Celebrations!

With Canada Day quickly approaching, it’s time to start brainstorming ideas for how to dress your table. Considering how many directions there are to go in, it can be impossible to narrow down what you like. Use this inspiration guide as help when setting your table this Canada Day!

When picking your linens for an event like this, you want something that is sturdy, reliable and can withstand a couple of hours outdoors. We suggest you try either our denim or our faux linens. With the perfect rustic yet stylish elements, these tablecloths can definitely elevate a table setting. The denim especially will make all of the guests feel the comfort a barbeque usually brings people. Also, our denim linens will give your guests something to remember since it is not everyday you see denim tablecloths!

Sticking with the running theme of rustic yet stylish, we have to recommend our faux linen napkins to match. Ranging from terracotta cheesecloth to traditional white linen, this style of napkin will compliment the tablecloths and the outdoor setting perfectly. Another great napkin option would be the red matte satin. This will tie in the Canada Day decor elements into the table if you choose to have a more low-key affair. 

Speaking of Canada Day decor elements, don’t forget to pick up one of our maple leaf table runners to bring just the right amount of patriotism to your event! It comes in both red and white so it can compliment your table setting no matter what. It is a necessity to have a bunch of maple leaves at your Canada Day party so don’t be shy about putting them up everywhere. After all, this is the one day a year where you can take advantage of that. Check out some ideas we put together highlighting out maple leaf runner!

Trend Forecast Summer 2024

Get ready for these summer weddings by preparing yourself for the upcoming trends this season! This summer the main theme for designs is thinking outside of the box and trying things that aren’t exactly conventional.

One of the main trending colours for weddings this summer will surprise you! The complete opposite of which weddings are usually known for, black is trending this summer. Couples are leaning towards an edgier look that white does not bring. Another shocking colour being added to the mix this season is chartreuse. While this colour is not typically used for many things, as of now it is being used as an accent colour for many weddings.

Another main trend that is currently sweeping the wedding design space is the citrus-y orange colour palettes. These colours are perfect for a summer wedding because the brightness and vibrance in them perfectly reflect the summer months. To no-one’s surprise the main colour that is taken off this wedding season is blue. Blue has different shades and has always been around but recently royals and navy blues have been a big hit for designers.

As far as tablescaping goes there are many fun things becoming popular that have not been seen before. For example, a major trend recently was to incorporate fruits like lemons and pomegranates in the centrepiece of a table. This summer specifically this trend has taken a bit of a turn and fresh produce like tomatoes have been opted in for a unique and rustic look. 

Some other fun things that have entered the event planning world is the emergence of the disco ball. While it has always been around for a retro or vintage theme party, the shiny sphere has now found a respectable place in the wedding world, as a symbol for partying and having a good time. Along with this, metallic cutlery has been up-incoming to match the reflective nature of the disco balls. 

Patterns and the overall theme of maximalism has been growing outside of the event space for a while but now it has started to make its way in. Couples figure the bigger the better supplies to all cases, especially when planning their wedding. Whether its extreme indulgence or layered patterns and materials this trend has been shaking up the industry in such a fun way!
