Your table is the heart of the dining experience, so let its natural beauty take centre stage. Whether it’s rich walnut or warm oak, embrace the character of timber by keeping the setting simple. A soft linen tablecloth or placemats and coasters will protect the surface while allowing the grain to peek through.

The best gatherings are about connection, not fuss. Lean into an understated table setting that highlights what matters most: the food and the people sharing it. Keep your plates and bowls minimal and intentional without cluttering the table.

I love to use Soft Edge Studio plates and bowls in a mix of colours to add some personality. I also like styling the Elio chairs in a mix of colours to create interest and depth.

One or two carefully placed statement vases with seasonal blooms or fresh greenery can bring life to your table without overwhelming it. Our Cloud Champagne Cooler also makes a subtle statement with the striking marble. Mixing the materials with stainless steel and marble vases together effortlessly elevates an otherwise simple tablescape.

At its core, hosting is about bringing people together. Dim the lights, light a candle, and let the conversation unfold. The best moments happen around the table, where memories are made. No weekend gathering is complete without the indulgence of good food, flowing wine, and sweet traditions. If you celebrate Easter, scatter bowls of eggs across the table, serve warm hot cross buns and enjoy time well spent with family and friends.
