Merry and Bright: Three Christmas Tablescapes

We’re officially entering sparkle season. Slay the dashing dinner scene by bringing the proper aplomb to the party.

Set a festive place setting for everyone who made the Nice List this year with Social Llama Events.

It should come as no surprise that the ladies and gents of Social Llama Events love a theme. With a fresh spin on traditional, they bring personality and pizazz to everything they touch–especially these holiday tablescapes. See how they make everything merry and bright with the three Christmas tablescapes below.

Bright Cheer with Bario

This tablescape is all about ringing in the holidays with a healthy dose of cheer. Bright, ornamental pieces work as eye candy in the place settings while black and white velvets ground this tablescape together. The Ginori Oriente Italiano Collection is always a top requested collection for the holidays, but Bario is a sleeper shade for December. This smooth, sage color plays upon the idea of Christmas greens while softening this table's fabulously flamboyant side. The Lenox Remix Accent Plates are a colorful addition--perfect for passed bites or first course. This is a really fun and playful mix, which requires a great chair to pull the look together. We love how well the Mila in Black Velvet brings a sophisticated spin to this tablescape.

Perfect For Christmas with the Besties

All I Want for Christmas

A cotton candy Christmas complete with milk and cookies is exactly what we’d put on our list for a perfect holiday tablescape. Even jolly St. Nick would fit right in at this pink and red festive fete. We consider tabletop one as the six o'clock dinner service (kids would love it!), while tablescape two has a more sophisticated fine dining feel for the adults-only hours.

Serving up a dash of green is our beautiful Malachite Flatware, which is swapped out for Lucite in look two for Red Maple Catering's magical salad show. We adore the elegant coursework of this fabulous meal, complete with the oh-so-important champagne moment for a holiday toast! Christmas and NYE happen to be when engagements happen the most, so be sure to have some champagne on hand just in case. Just saying!

Perfect for a Family Night

Perfect for Kids at Heart

A White Christmas

An ornament exchange is one of our favorite Christmas traditions. This tablescape takes that notion up a notch with an edible version by way of Red Maple Catering. Trust us when we say it is as delicious as this place setting looks. We love the elegant mix of black and white for a chic evening with the best of friends and family. Of course, this Ginori Albus tablescape even calls for a caviar bump and martini moment. So chic! l
