Designed with purposeful color crashes, this table is the embodiment of late-summer style and joy.

For this Asian cuisine inspired table, I opted for elegant square plates - they accentuate the length of the table and offer a modern twist. Yet, I was keen on maintaining the communal charm of shared meals inherent in Asian dining.

To harmonize form and function, I crafted a floral platform centerpiece for dishes.

But it's more than decor, it's interactive magic.

As plates are placed down for serving, candles integrated within the centerpiece extinguish, creating a playful ambiance.

Candlelight is a key player in table styling. It adds warmth, romance, and that perfect late-summer glow. When space was scarce for additional candles, I embraced the challenge and incorporated them into the centerpiece.

Another thing I want to point out is the moss I used in the centerpiece. This small touch is a nod to the beauty of the outdoors, reminding us of late summer's lush greenery.

For all table decor lovers out there, remember, it's all about creativity and balance. Check out my profile for more table setting inspiration or DM me your thoughts and questions.

I've always believed that an event setup should be as vibrant as the party itself, and nothing screams vibrancy more than a classy 🌴 tropical-themed party🌴.

When it comes to designing an elegant tropical theme party, the key is to let loose and go wild. Leave the rulebook behind and don't worry about matching colors.

Instead, embrace the natural chaos of the jungle, where every hue and shade comes together to create a stunning mosaic.

One of the best ways to achieve this is through the economical and dramatic use of large leaves - like banana leaves.

Not only do they make a grand statement, but they also serve as an excellent base to hold your beautiful heat-resistant florals.

The larger the leaf, the more impressive the display!

These florals don't just add splashes of color to your centerpieces and venue decor, but they also have a decent shelf life, so you don't need to fret about them wilting away before the party ends.

I've always had a soft spot for color - it can bring a table set up to life and fill a room with energy.

This love for color led me to create something a bit different: a rainbow tablescape.

Each place setting in this design is a different color - red, orange, yellow, green, purple.

It's like a vibrant journey across a rainbow, right at your dining table.

And the best part? The centerpiece that ties it all together is remarkably simple to make.

You just need to pick small bouquets of flowers in a single color and use whatever short glass vases you have on hand.

Align each vase with the corresponding place setting, and voila, you've got yourself a visually striking centerpiece that anyone can create.

I also like to add a touch more of personality to my tables, so I tucked a single stem into each white napkin.

It's these little touches that make each guest feel special and bring the whole look together.

Feel free to swipe through the photos to see how this colorful tablescape came together. Whether you're planning an event or just love exploring creative ideas, I hope this setup sparks your imagination.

Do drop me a message if you have any questions, or share your own twist on colorful table decor. I'd love to hear from you!

You'd probably never guess that most of the blue flowers in the centerpiece are actually faux flowers, but that's exactly what they are. Faux flowers can be such a game-changer; they add volume, texture and a unique charm to any arrangement.

It's amazing how a colorful centerpiece, full of greens and realistic faux flowers, can adapt to any theme. All you need to do is pick your colors, and the rest just falls into place.

What makes this setup even more special? Most of this decor was reused from another celebration earlier in the day. Sustainability is just as important to me as style.

Here's a little secret: the same centerpiece can look drastically different depending on the setting and the tablecloth. This time, the decor took on a more formal look because of the tablecloth I used. So next time you're planning an event, don't be shy about reusing your decor. A little creativity goes a long way!

Swipe to see how the table turned out. If you're searching for blue and gold centerpiece ideas or realistic fake flowers, I hope you'll find some inspiration here. And remember, I'm always here if you want to explore more decor ideas together!

Get ready for a behind-the-scenes look at how two back-to-back school graduations into unforgettable celebrations.

In the event planning world here versatility is key.

So when I was tasked with utilize a setup for two separate ceremonies on the same day, I knew I had to get creative and yet synchronized.

Our color scheme was classic red, white, and blue, the proud colors of the school.

And yes, the same decor at both events. 🤭

Don't underestimate fake flowers - they're the unsung heroes of event decor.

You can twist, bend, and style them however you want, plus they're always the right shade, so no worries about mismatched colors causing visual clutter.

And the best part? They're reusable!

The real showstopper, however, was the candy and lollipop stand.

It was a DIY project that combined function with aesthetics.

This wasn't just a place to hold candies and lollipops, but also a fun piece that caught every eye.

Whether it's your graduation, birthday, or any celebration, don't be afraid to think outside the box when it comes to decor.

A splash of color, a pinch of creativity, and voila - you've got yourself a party!

Check out these red, white, and blue party ideas, and get inspired for your next event.

Swipe to see my favorite part of this tablescape❣️

I created this table to celebrate a family graduation but it would work just as well for a farewell party or celebrating a well deserved promotion.

I really like the meaning of behind this arrangement, with a boat gracefully sailing away, symbolizing the journey ahead and the exciting possibilities that await.

The deep blue vegan leather tablecloth works with the theme and is gender neutral yet elegant.

What other occasion do you think could work well with this theme? ⛵

You don't need to spend a lot of time and money to create a beautiful table.

This classic gold tablescape is the perfect blend of elegance and versatility.

I used the rule of three to create a simple, inexpensive but still classy arrangement.

The best part is that I already had these three gold vases sitting on my console table.

I like these vases because they complement the warm hues of the room so nicely, and the earthy, cork texture of the tablecloth adds a cozy rustic charm.

So next time you set your table, try to use pieces you already have in your home to create a cohesive look that allows for easy communication.

And use the rule of three for an easy set-up!

When I decorate, my focus is on minimizing wastage and embracing sustainability.

So for this anniversary event, I wanted to use simple decor such as potted plants and succulents that guests can take home as party favors.

Everyone loves this idea because it creates lasting memories and reduces our environmental impact.

Will you try this at your next event?

When I create a Chinese tablesetting, I like to let the food take center stage 🥢✨

Embracing the essence of minimalism, I create a table setting that accentuates the flavors and delights.

To preserve the heat and safeguard the tablecloth, serving plate coasters are a must.

Speaking of tablecloths, opt for bold patterns that can gracefully handle the occasional spills.

As for your flowers?

Achieve an enchanting atmosphere with multiple centerpieces, where flowers gracefully sway in every direction, forming a breathtaking composition. 🌺

Hosting a wine-tasting party? I've got you covered!

For this setup at a 50th birthday party in a private wine cellar, I used an earthy color palette with basic white and green floral accents.

The tablecloth adds an interesting touch with its reflective brownish-red and green hues.

I kept the decor subdued and masculine, with black napkins and subtle florals.

It's the perfect ambiance for wine and cigar aficionados!

Who says simple can't be beautiful?

For this daytime brunch setup, I used recycled candles and classic French-style tableware accents.

It's the perfect setting for a ladies get-together!

"I love dining al fresco, and this tablescape setup makes it even better!

I used a heavy fabric tablecloth and reusable plastic wine glasses, to create a cozy yet casual mood. And because we're dining outside, I opted for a combination of electric candles and tealights.

The succulent centrepieces add a touch of nature, while hand-written plaques on the napkins make the perfect take-home gift for guests.

Plus, I made simple pocket utensil holders for easy grabbing and relaxing on the grass.

No matter where I am Hong Kong is always where the heart lies. It has been a couple years of turmoil for my hometown and everyone that is living and connected to our city has been injured in someway. During these difficult times I always remind myself and connect with the family through meal times, always highlighting the little things in life. Little things like morning kiss from my kids, someone holding the door for me , a cup of hot cocoa to satisfy my sugar craving, a text from an overseas friend or family - everything counts! It is the constant reminder of the positives and not take things for granted that drives my energy and helps me weather through the downs in life. Thank you Dee for initiating such a meaningful social media campaign. Hong Kong is ready to open up and level up. Are you ready? #openbetterhk #stronger #openlevelup #hongkong #hongkong🇭🇰 #hongkonger @mindhongkong

What I love most when creating my tables is thinking of unique ways to entertain my dinner guests and accommodate family style food sharing dinners. With this centerpiece, I wanted to engage everyone present at the end of dinner by getting them to participate to blow the candles. When everyone finished their plates, I invited them to place their empty dishes above the candles in front of them and press gently on the floral foam. This action sucked the air out from the candle, effectively blowing it out. It was a fun surprise no one expected! #familystylemeals #familystyle #familystyledinner #familystyles #familystyledining #foodsharing #familydinner #blowoutthecandles #blowoutthecandle #wowyourguests #entertainyourguests #ascapeliving
