Although special events require special dinnerware, that’s not to say that you need to spend money on a brand-new dining set. You can elevate your day-to-day pieces by dressing them with a napkin ring or other details. Always stick to one colour palette for a chic and clean look.

Don’t forget the outdoors too. If you’ve got a balcony, utilise the space and decorate it. You can go for the festival, boho look with fairy lights and luscious green plants. Or alternatively keep it simple with a couple of seats and a range of garden plants.
