Tip 1: Use Elevated Pieces

With a floral masterpiece as the focal point of a table, it’s important to keep the additional decor pieces elevated and classic We as stewardesses have long waited for the day that beach sand and glass beads on the table are out of trend That day has finally arrived It's becoming more common to see less flair on the table which allows the carefully curated pieces to take center stage and impress the guests

Let's work together!

“FORMAL DINING HAS EVOLVED TO MORE PLAYFUL AND INVITING TABLESCAPES. WE CREATED AN ELEVATED COASTAL LOOK BY MIXING TRADITIONAL PIECES SUCH AS OUR HEREND WITH SLIGHTLY MORE CASUAL PIECES SUCH AS OUR TISH NY PLACEMENTS.

WE USED RAYNAUD LIMOGE AND ANNA WEATHERLY FOR OUR DINNERWARE AND PAIRED IT WITH WILLIAM YEOWARD CRYSTAL GLASSWARE AND MICHAEL ARAM FLATWARE. WE PULLED COLOR FROM THE DINNERWARE TO CREATE A SHOW STOPPING

FLORAL CENTERPIECE WITH POPS OF THE NEW 2024 COLOR OF THE YEAR, PEACH FUZZ.”

Tip 2: Tap into Trends

Tip 2: Tap into Trends

Emerald and elevated earth tones are being used in current fashion trends and can serve as inspiration for your tablescapes

For example, on the aft deck, we used the greenery that is naturally abundant in the Caribbean to complement the accents in the china border and glassware. We are keeping the main color scheme a variety of teak tans and browns on napkins, flatware, and placemats

Tip 4: PrecisionPlacement

Tip 4: Precision Placement

With so many pieces being pulled for service to place around the boat and on the table, it helps to refer to the essential “rules of thumb” we learn in table setting. Not only do we save time when we have these principles of placement mastered, we also create a symmetrical and cohesive “ wow factor” for the guests Guests may not immediately take note of the way the utensils are spaced from one another, but when the eyes scan the table at first glance, there will be a flow that elevates the ambiance

Tip 5: Polished to Perfection

Tip 5: Polished to Perfection

It should go without saying that a fingerprint can ruin a glass of wine White gloves don’t just look nice when setting the table, they protect the fine crystal and silver finishes of the gorgeous tableware

When you are serving a 30-year-old scotch or even a glass of fresh orange juice, there is something magical about the way the light passes through the surface of the vessel it’s being poured from.

We encourage you to use local & fresh elements where possible and having a sophisticated and luxurious place setting as a base will elevate all your creativity. The elements you’ve seen here today are customizable and can be mixed and matched to create numerous different settings so that each meal service is unique. The options are endless and allow individuals to add their personal flair.
