Our 3 step guide to hosting the perfect intimate Summer lunch.

Taking cue from the warmer weather and longer days, we share our top tips on how to set the scene, create the perfect tablescape and have a fun filled afternoon with those you love. 

1. Set the tone

It's the details that count. Think about how to make your guests feel comfortable and cozy. We suggest a bounty of cushions (either on the ground or on each chair) in colours that pair with your tablescape. Music is also imperative. Think about pairing a fun playlist to the specific cuisine so you can enhance the experience.

 

 

2. Set the expectation.

Contrast is the best way to create an exciting tablescape - such as combining different textures ( eg rough vs smooth, shiny vs matte). Our Polished Silver cutlery pairs beautifully with a natural or woven placemat, creating that strong textural contrast. Mix in a pop of colour through fun prints and bright plates for a fun and well balanced Spring inspired tablescape that will set the expectation for the food to come. 

 

 

3. Sharing is caring

Not only do big share plates look impressive on the table, they also make for a fun interactive meal, allowing your guests to help themselves and pass between one another. They also make it easier for you to serve up!
