Forget the usual red + green if you're looking for a more unique Christmas theme then check out our HOT CHRISTMAS TABLE STYLING TRENDS!
Create a memorable festive feast combining the homespun charm of rustic Provence with French metal bistro chairs, mismatched cushions and an old wooden trestle table. Vintage jars, bottles or jugs filled with a small bunch of blooms from your garden, vintage dinnerware including plates, cutlery, glassware + tea sets. Rustic birdcages + unique Christmas ornaments make great table settings along with paper gift tags as table placements.
Create a natural Eco Chic Christmas by combining a botanical look with ferns, succulents, herbs, vegetables + atrium centrepieces. Brown paper table runners, natural linen napkins, chopping boards, branches, wooden baroque candle holders and zine gift tags as table placements are also fantastic additions.
Create a casual Hamptons Christmas by combining a predominately white colour palette with a pop of aqua blue, coral centrepieces, white blooms, glass nautical balls and rope.
For a more summery Christmas feel opt for prints such as the iconic Chevron print which looks great made up as overlays, table runners + napkins or for a bold statement go for bright neons including fluro yellow + hot pink which will give the traditional Christmas table a burst of new energy + life.
If you're more of a modern minimalist kind of host why not create an all white Christmas table, this too can be a bold statement but oozes plenty of elegance with an urban edge.
Here are our top 20 tips to style up your Christmas table setting...
1. Add a large coloured base plate called a charger plate. This will instantly give your table a lift!
2. Place individual chalkboards under each setting with the guests name written in chalk.
3. Make your own personalised menus and place them on mini clipboards. This will instantly give your lunch/dinner soiree that restaurant feel.

The day began at Bretts Wharf. The happy couple tied the knot in front of 200 guests on the lawn. Whilst guests enjoyed some culinary delights and refreshing drinks on a beautiful winter’s day, Karen and James amongst close family took part in the traditional tea ceremony. 
The evening festivities kicked off at Gustos Restaurant at Portside. The black and white stripped linen and styling from Jodie from W.Edding & Co. made the room pop.
