Dust off your fancy plates and polish your silverware dining parties are once again on the horizon! So, it's no coincidence that a trend for elaborate table setting has emerged.
I do love planning parties for my kids, but recently I had the great privilege to throw a much more grown up party for my husband! Sean turned the big 5-0 this month so we had to have an extra special celebration for him. I decided on a moody black and gold theme with tons of candles. I had so much fun putting it together with the help of my mom and sister-in-law. Mood Board These were some pictures that caught my eye when I was thinking about what Sean would like and what would be special enough for such a big milestone but still fit with our style. I created a Pinterest board which I shared with my mom and sister-in-law and pinned a few moody black and gold dinner photos that I loved. This helped give us direction in our planning. I especially loved the matte black of the plates against the shiny gold silverware, the multitude of candles everywhere, and the greenery woven throughout. Happy Hour Before dinner, we started the party with happy hour at 7 Seas Brewery and Taproom in Tacoma. I had reserved the event room there for a couple of hours in the afternoon. 7 Seas serves their own beer, made in Tacoma, as well as other locally made beverages. I ordered some appetizers and coffee from 3uilt, the restaurant inside the taproom, which also has lots of local ingredients. The décor at the brewery was simple. The room itself was beautiful, even without adding decoration. It had a window with a view of all the brewing equipment, a rustic concrete wall, vintage sconces, a long wooden-framed chalkboard, a wooden barrel, a wooden bar, and black tablecloths on a variety bistro and long tables. With concerns about Covid increasing, combined with our budget for food and drinks, as well as the fact that Sean likes smaller more intimate gatherings anyway, we only had about 15 guests at the brewery, but it felt like the perfect amount. Upon entering, the first thing guests saw was a chalkboard sign. I drew on a chalkboard using a transfer technique I learned a few years ago. I find it challenging to write freehand on chalkboards, especially when writing larger letters, but I found out a way to cheat a little bit. First I download fonts that I want to use, then use Word to input the words and make them the size I want. Then I print the document, cut out the word, cover the back of the paper with chalk, place the paper chalk down where I want it on the chalkboard, and trace over the letters firmly with a pencil. I then take the paper away and a light chalk outline of the letters remains, which I trace over with chalk marker. It can be time consuming, but it is a great zero-waste way to make a neat and tidy sign for a special event. As you may know, I like to use paper globes and fans to decorate because they are reusable. Unfortunately, the brewery would only let us use tape to attach things to the walls and we couldn’t hang anything, so when removing the paper fans, some had to be thrown away. I still think that it was worth trying to use something that might possibly have another life over something like balloons which are always single-use. My mom spread greenery and candles on the tables and it all came together with a nice balance of casual but mature and festive. After the happy hour, we headed back to the house for a smaller family dinner. A few close old friends came over to the house for a bit too, which was wonderful. Back Home: Table Settings Now let's talk about how we decorated our table at home. For a special occasion like a milestone birthday, renting table settings or decorations is such a great way to dress up the table while keeping the party sustainable. We rented the gold-rimmed goblets, gold-rimmed dessert plates, and 20 gold votive candle holders from Celebrations for Every Season. We also rented the matte black plates and gold flatware from Set the Table Party Rentals. Avoiding buying things new is always a better choice for the environment. Companies like Celebrations for Every Season and Set the Table are an organized way for hundreds of people to share one set of beautiful plates, candle holders, or silverware. I had great experiences with both companies. The owners of both were so kind and helpful. I would definitely rent from them again for future parties. With Celebrations for Every Season, I truly felt so much warmth from Susan. It felt more like talking with family or a good friend than someone simply providing a service. She told me the best story about her mother. I mentioned that one can never have too many candles and she said her mother would say it was pointless to clean before the party and instead she would turn the lights low and light tons of candles. Wise woman! Susan also delivered everything to my home and came back to my home to pick everything up. When she returned, she brought a book to show to my kids and me called The Tea Party Book. I had told her I wanted to have a tea party with my kids and she shared the book with me because she had used several of the ideas and recipes from the book with her children. I ordered a copy for us. I actually think Celebrations for Every Season takes the sustainability step even further than most party rental businesses, as she offers a lot of vintage things (as opposed to newer) and things come wrapped in beautiful sustainable packaging. Everything was wrapped in soft cloth napkins and packed in a wicker basket. Tanya at Set the Table was very patient when I couldn’t find one of the gold spoons in time for dropping my rentals back off, but it was found the next day! She made the whole process very easy. Her options for rental are all gorgeous and a little more modern, so working with both she and Susan was a nice way to balance vintage and modern. Adult Table Kid Table It cost about $100 total to rent the plates, flatware, goblets, and candle holders. I’m always trying to stay within our means, so I wouldn’t do this for every party, but for this occasion, it felt worth it. I did first try looking at thrift stores for gold or black table settings. I was able to find several things, such as some antique gold-rimmed tea cups for after-meal coffee, some black plates for the kids’ table, some serving platters, and a black candle holder. However, it can be hard to find plates and silverware and cups in larger quantities, so I decided to rent the rest. Foliage My mom ordered and arranged the greenery. She was once a florist for many years so I knew she would make it look beautiful. She ordered three kinds of foliage from a local Tacoma florist. The delicate fern-like one is called plumosa, the one that is mostly in the vases is called Gunni Eucalyptus, and the more sturdy greenery with dark green leaves is called Italian Ruscus. My mom also filled several gold pots with live fern plants from Fernseed. I love supporting Fernseed because they are committed to the slow flower movement, sourcing what they can from small local flower farms. My plan is to harden off the ferns and plant them in a shady spot in my front yard. Candles This party was all about candles! We actually counted and I believe there were almost 50 spread all around the living and dining room. We rented 20 of the votive candle holders from Susan at Celebrations for Every Season. They came in a variety of designs that all were a gold mercury glass and complemented each other perfectly. We also rented from her some battery-operated votive candles which were helpful to have on the kids’ table and at the brewery since they don’t allow real candles. We supplemented Susan’s candle holders with several small gold tealight and votive candle holders left from my wedding. My sister-in-law and mom shopped their stashes to contribute some other gold candle holders as well. The tall brass taper candle sticks I got from a garage sale a few years ago. As for the candles themselves, I bought beeswax pillars from Homesong Market, beeswax tealights from BeesLightCandles on Etsy, and black beeswax blend tapers from Root. I also used a few thrifted pillars I had. The “5” and “0” on Sean’s raspberry tart are from Oakmoss Home, which is based in the Puget Sound area and uses responsibly sourced beeswax. There’s something so fun about gathering different things for a party once you’ve decided on a theme, whether looking through your own stuff, asking friends and family to borrow things, thrifting, and just generally trying to find the most sustainable way to achieve the look you’re going for. Gifts My husband Sean really wanted to lessen the impact of his birthday on the environment, so he asked for eco-conscious gifts. He asked for people to donate to the carbon offsetting program of that person’s choice. He made a suggestion where people could look to find these programs by giving this link: www.ecowatch.com/best-carbon-offset-programs. If family or friends preferred to give a physical gift, Sean asked for ethical, sturdy brands like Patagonia or Darn Tough, things that would last. Food This summer, we joined a CSA at a local organic farm, Wild Hare. We pick up our share of produce every week. This week I grabbed extra mushrooms, potatoes, and carrots for the party. I love being able to share that amazing food with my family. In the future, I’d love to serve food from my own garden at parties. I have thrown in a few things here and there, but as I learn more about gardening and add more raised beds, I’d love to increase the quantity of home-grown veggies I can share with others. Lessons Learned I’d like to share some ways we could improve in our efforts to keep our celebrations sustainable and what we will do differently next time. Although using things from nature is good since it is biodegradable, we could have foraged some of the greenery or paid closer attention to where it was sourced. I know the greenery is from a local flower shop, but I’m not sure if it was shipped from somewhere local or somewhere far away. I have to admit that I bought new stickers and black cardstock paper for the bunting sign. The stickers will eventually go to the landfill and came wrapped in plastic packaging. I could have easily just used paper with no stickers or used second hand fabric to make bunting. I got caught up in making this party extra special and got excited at the craft store. In the future I will avoid buying stickers because I truly believe they are unnecessary and just not worth the impact on the environment for the short amount of time they are used. I did use the extra black paper for place cards and will reuse the sign by changing the words slightly for other occasions. I will use most of the remainder of the stickers in the package for other purposes. After all, as the saying goes, it’s only single use if you use it once! Ultimately, we are all doing the best we can to navigate our journey to sustainability. It is such a challenge to balance the beauty standards and temptations we see all around us with being kind to our earth. I know I struggle with it. Being able to share my little parties with you helps me reflect on my decisions and make better choices in the future. Is it just me or are the cozy candles, warm golds, and rich, dark blacks and greens of this party getting you in the mood for fall?

If you’re throwing a birthday dinner party, then you’ll probably want to keep the dinner table as pretty as possible. However, it’s easy for some party decorations to make your table look, well, a little tacky—something we want to avoid if a sophisticated aesthetic is our goal. Thankfully, there are plenty of décor options that are the furthest thing from tacky. For a list of ideas on how to decorate your birthday dinner table, keep reading this guide from Sophistiplate. Our fifteen birthday table decoration ideas will make your dinner party a super elevated experience that’s sure to impress all of your guests. 1. Tablecloth The tablecloth is the canvas of your birthday dinner décor and, as such, sets the tone for everything else that goes on top. Although white linen is the classic choice when it comes to tablecloths, we’d prefer to go with something a little more bright and colorful—as long as it matches our party theme. If you can’t find a tablecloth that perfectly matches your birthday dinner party theme, then you can even get a personalized design made just for your party. Don’t forget to pair it with an elegant table runner! 2. Birthday Candles Table Setting If you have a decorative table setting, then you have most of what you need for a festive birthday dinner table. We love this Birthday Candles table setting because it’s the perfect combination of playful and sophisticated. The festive birthday hats and candles that are part of the design would make a perfect design for anyone’s style and taste. 3. Moroccan Tile Table Setting This table setting is in the print of Moroccan tile, which is a design that dates all the way back to the ancient Islamic Empire. This design is instantly recognizable in much of Moroccan architecture and is officially called zellij. But you don’t have to be an architecture buff to appreciate this design. Whether you recognize this pattern or not, it’s still dreamy, bohemian, and eclectic enough to elevate any dinner table. 4. Everyday Blush Table Setting For a table setting that’s a bit more subdued, we love the Everyday Blush design. With a simple pastel pink color and golden rims, this table setting looks clean, fresh, and very romantic. If you’re throwing a birthday party dinner in the spring, then this table setting couldn’t be more perfect. 5. String Lights String lights are one of the most romantic ways to decorate any space. And fortunately, they don’t need to be hung up on the wall. Instead, they can be used in many ways as part of your table décor. You can experiment with different ways to incorporate string lights into your table decorations. One idea is to twist string lines into a floral garland and lay it out onto the table. You can also twist up the string lights and put them into mason jars all around the table. Another idea is to attach the string lights to the edges of the table and allow them to elegantly drape off. 6. Candles Your options are endless when it comes to candles. You can place several impressive candles in decorative jars in the center of the table. You can also place dozens of taper candles on the table (preferably in candle holders that match your party theme). Another option is to buy a bunch of tealight candles and to place them into colorful tealight jars. Or try a combination of all three! 7. LED Signs LED signs can add a super retro touch to any birthday table dinner. Go for a variety of colors to match your party’s theme (we personally love neon pink). The sign can say a variety of cheeky things, such as “love,” “good vibes only,” and “party starts here.” Of course, if you need another reminder of the birthday person’s special day, then you can get custom-made LED signs with their name on them. 8. Balloons While we’re used to seeing these party staples floating up towards the ceiling, you can totally make them a part of your dinner table décor. Simply blow them up with a little bit of helium and attach them to the place settings—or something else that’s equally sturdy—on the table. When the finished product is complete, you should have a bunch of balloons floating directly above the dinner table. If you use light-colored balloons, the effect will be something like sitting directly under the stars. 9. Table Confetti Who said that confetti can’t be sophisticated? Against the right backdrop, it can be an extra festive touch that adds a perfect touch of elegance to any dinner table. You can either go for classic confetti—such as silver or gold circles—or for more unique designs, which can include hearts, stars, and even crowns in various colors. 10. Party Treat Stand A treat stand—also known as a cake stand—can be a stunning way to display desserts. It has three tiers that you can fill up with your favorite treats. We prefer cupcakes, but the options here are endless. You can fill up the cake stand with desserts such as cookies, mini pastries, and—for the super healthy amongst us—even fruit! You can also use it to serve appetizers before the birthday dinner. If your dinner table is quite long, then you might want to invest in several cake stands and place them equally along with the table. 11. Personalized Glassware Beautiful glassware can make for some stunning décor on the birthday dinner table. After all, what screams “party” more than a pretty champagne glass? To really spruce it up, you can personalize the glassware with the birthday person’s name. Better yet, get each guest a glass with their own name on it as the perfect take-home souvenir. 12. Coasters To go along with your glassware, you need a set of decorative coasters. Luckily, there are tons of options on the market with many different options for prints, designs, and colors. If you want, you can even take the personalized route and get each guest their own coaster to take home! 13. Card Placeholder Even if the birthday party dinner you’re throwing is small and intimate, putting place cards with your guest names on the table is a classy move that they’re sure to appreciate. Instead of using basic metal place card holders, choose something unique that adds to the décor of the dinner table. You can choose a place card holder in the shape of a star, flower, heart—the options are endless. And don’t forget to experiment with different colors for a super Instagrammable effect! 14. Menu Card Placing a professionally-made menu card on each guest’s plate prior to the dinner can be a super elegant move. Even if your menu is small, it can make your guests feel excited as they wait in anticipation for the different courses of the dinner. The best part is that you can design and print these menu cards all on your own. Make sure to take advantage of this opportunity to add some extra colors and prints to the birthday dinner! 15. Floral Arrangements Because you have so many options for a floral arrangement, you can make one that perfectly matches your birthday dinner theme. If you want something uber elegant, then you can include a combination of lilies, orchids, and roses. Looking for something a bit more rustic? Sunflowers and daisies are the way to go. You can even make floral arrangements out of succulents. You can definitely order floral arrangements from a florist to save yourself time and effort. That said, we think that making your own floral arrangements can be a fun way to get your creative juices flowing and to make sure that the birthday dinner party décor is a true reflection of your good taste. 16. Vases Even if they don’t hold any flowers, vases can be a unique way to spruce up the dinner table. Something as simple as a plain crystal vase can be an elegant addition to the dinner table. That said, we’d prefer something bright and colorful that really jazzes up and compliments the rest of your table decorations. A Festive Birthday Dinner Table A sophisticated birthday dinner party definitely doesn’t have to be boring. By incorporating a decorative table setting, floral arrangements, candles, and a few of the other elements we mentioned above, our birthday dinner table will be the most Instagrammable part of the evening. For your most elegant birthday dinner party, Sophistiplate has everything you need to help you decorate. From our unique dinnerware sets to our personalized glassware to our serveware, your dinner table will be remembered for years to come!

I am thrilled to share the amazing wedding details of the Switched at birth star- Katie LeClerc, and her sweet hubby Brian’s colorful Palm Springs Colony 29 wedding featured on Martha Stewart ! This one was nothing short of amazing and we are so grateful to have been given the opportunity to capture this stunning wedding put together by the amazing group at Amorology! No one does details and pulls a wedding theme together like Heather and the res of her team at Amorology. They are absolutely incredible! For the head wedding party dining table, Amorology created a custom table runner hand painted by Peanut Press and adorned with living fruit and florals by Twigg Botanicals. The mid-century tables from Folklore Vintage Rentals were a perfect match for the tabletop prettiness from Hostess Haven. Bicycle shaped save-the-dates from Pitbulls and Posies tied the cycling theme together and were complimented by bright, geometric custom stationary by Peanut Press. Backup Backdrops created three fun displays for ceremony, escort and desserts. These were unique artistic pieces that really tied the theme together. The simple ceremony wall with Plexiglas arrows alluded to the couple’s love of cycling and the idea of sharing the road together. Inspired by their love for playing Cards Against Humanity, Amorology couldn’t help but make a “Katie and Brian Against ...
