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.
