Get inspired by these beautiful holiday tables

Whenever I am invited somewhere, I am curious to discover the table decoration that my hosts have imagined, especially when a meal is on the program.

So I'm going to try to go around, here, the decorations that most caught my attention.

Wedding receptions

Unsurprisingly, I'll start with weddings. Indeed, due to the scale and importance of this event, the bride and groom do not skimp on the means, but above all show great creativity for an exceptional table decoration. And of all the weddings and pacs where I was invited, it was the country-themed decoration that seduced me the most. Of course, as the weather permitted, the reception took place entirely outdoors.

For an atmosphere that is both bucolic and rustic, the pastoral colors of white, green and yellow were in the spotlight. Nothing was left to chance. Tastefully chosen, tablecloths, runners and napkins, cutlery, chair covers harmonized perfectly. Throughout the party, I felt like I was in the countryside as the reception took place in a very urban area. Out of curiosity, I then asked the couple for the address of their supplier of table decoration items and they gave me the contact details of the website.

Birthday parties

For people looking for table and room decoration accessories, this address is full of quality items at reasonable prices. Moreover, for my next "birthday party", I have already placed an order for my disposable tableware and I am expecting delivery of my poker-themed decorative items soon. The party is only a few weeks away, but I'm already making preparations.

But I will now come back to the birthday decorations that I found the most inventive. The prize goes to my work colleague who opted for the cinema theme. The cinephile that I am did not remain unmoved by his table runners with the motif of a roll of black and white film reel, as well as his name-tag cinema clapperboards. Otherwise, in a completely different style, I also really liked the disco atmosphere decoration of one of my best friends.

New Year's meals

Finally, I will finish my tour of the most beautiful festive tables that I have ever seen by those that are set up during New Year's Eve dinners. Without throwing flowers at me, it is my decoration of two years ago that remains for me the most new. Indeed, to change a bit from the usual classic meals, I offered my guests a thirties fancy dress party on the theme of prohibition. And I was particularly happy since everyone present played the game wonderfully. For a total immersion in the universe of Al Capone and the Incorruptibles, I opted, as main colors, for black and white. I still added little touches of femininity with table runners and coral tableware, not to mention the magnificent red feathers.
