For those of you (like us) who can never get enough table setting inspiration, we’re rounding up festive table settings and functional details with a little extra golden edge here below. Excellent party or wedding inspiration!

1. Neutral color scale

Featuring timeless neutrals, the uniform table setting is a timeless and elegant choice for any gathering. Choose a light base with an emphasis of beige, white and brown for a sophisticated overall expression that never loses its high style factor.

2. Close to nature features

Think close to nature! In addition to a neutral color palette, it’s fashionable to create unified table settings with elements close to nature. Think threads, bedspreads, and textiles in natural materials, preferably with textured surfaces for a sweet country charm.

3. Flashing details

What would a party or wedding be without a dose of sparkling elements? It can be cutlery, details of crockery, glass, or why not light sources in shimmering, shimmering surfaces. In terms of pure color, silver and copper are the ones that stand out a bit.

4. Beautify with string lights

A simple way to add a festive and elegant touch to your table setting are written string lights. Nowadays there are many variants, large and small, that can be applied either to the surroundings or directly to the tablecloth. Place them in a jar or vase for an elegant composition.

5. Influences from the sea

Playful hues and nautical influences still permeate the interior design. Incorporate the trend into seasonal table settings with textured surfaces and shapes reminiscent of nature. Creative touches add a sense of statement without compromising the classic base.

6. A touch of gray

Whether for parties or in everyday life, gray has gone from the choice of a withdrawn color to a favorite among Scandinavians. Start with the rest of the table settings, especially the large textiles, and let your gray elements go in a matching color or use the opposite design for contrast.

7. Incorporate nature

The trend close to nature with green plants and showy flowers continues to dominate. In the context of a setting, natural influences can be incorporated in a number of ways, including as above, with twigs and flowers. Vary in placement, from a napkin to a vase.

8. Sugary pastels

Are you looking for a lively and lively table? We never cease to be fascinated by Helle Mardahl, known for her creations in clever pastel colours. Don’t be afraid to experiment with pastel hues for a playful yet sophisticated look that’s guaranteed to be the talk of the town.

9. Flowers are a statement

There are plenty of elegant ways to dress up a table with flowers, especially if you’re looking to make a subtle statement. Above we see a bunch of flowers placed in the center of the table setting, making for an eye-catcher with a serene connection to nature.

10. Knives in focus

Getting cutlery festively ready is quite a challenge. Inspired by Cervera, whose delightful summer schedule puts an entire focus on tableware with simple means—invest in twine and botanicals, from twigs to flowers, in season. Light and elegant!

11. Lush table runner

Green plants are a good alternative to a classic tablecloth. Here we see how leafy green favorites spice up a neutral table setting. If you want to experiment more, add small flowers in a similar or contrasting color palette.
