summer tablescapes

When it comes to entertaining, presentation is everything. And nothing is more welcoming than a host that has taken the time to prepare a beautiful spread for their dinner party. Having been both hosts and guests at many gatherings, we know firsthand that people pay attention to the details whether they are good or bad. So planning ahead to create something special is something that we always try to do. Even if it is just a casual dinner or gathering, you want your guests to feel like you wanted them there, so make it memorable but don’t go overboard.

Preparing a tablescape can set the tone for the entire evening. Whether it is a relaxed dinner outside or a formal 5-course meal in your dining room, there is a tablescape that will set the perfect mood for your gathering. There are so many options when it comes to creating a table top worth drooling over but at the end of the day the design should reflect your personality and style. After all, that is what your guests came for, right?

Since summer is well underway and entertaining season is in full swing, we have put together four sets of collages with our favorite table top photos to help inspire you the next time you are hosting guests. You will be surprised how much your guests will appreciate you!
