If you're hosting a fancy dinner party for friends and loved ones, it's essential to know how to properly set the party. One of the most important steps in party planning is selecting the color theme of the party. Gold is a color often associated with wealth, wisdom and quality. A gold color scheme gives the appearance of simple elegance to any event or party. Whether there will be just one table for food and drink or several tables at a banquet, use some creative table decorating ideas for featuring gold.
Gold is an distinctive color for party decorations, but it's even more beautiful when it's mixed with another color. Cover the table with a cloth in an elegant, neutral shade like gold. Use random red and gold items in your table designs. Table linens consist of table clothes, napkins and place mats. The correct arrangement of silverware, plates and additional dining items will give the table an especially impressive look. Place paper plates atop each charger. Position wooden forks to the left of each plate. Place the wooden knives to the right of the plate. Place a wooden soup spoon to the right of the fish knife. Place a paper napkins to the left of the forks. Position the water paper drinking cups with vintage paper straws above the plates, on the right. Combining colors by using prints or patterns helps integrate the theme.
The table will be even more appealing once you've added gold decorations. The key is to not overdo it with gold, so that the splashes of gold you use stand out more, creating a bright and beautiful scene. Decorating a table with contrasting gold colors gives dimension and eye-catching appeal to the display.
