Whether you are throwing an engagement party, milestone birthday celebration or long overdue friends get-together, here are a few of my essential planning tips to make your party truly spectacular without breaking the bank.
Use Fresh and Dry Autumn Florals
Make use of seasonal garden flowers and greenery. Fill up and use emptied jars and bottles, old terracotta pots or small wooden crates and fill them with dry flowers. Place these along your tables. You can also fill clear vases with artificial or real autumn leaves in different colours.
Autumn is a great season for colourful perennials and evergreen shrubs that you may already find in your garden. In fact, some of the most popular flowers, like colourful roses, African daisies dahlias, purple pansies, marigolds and even bright yellow sunflowers, all bloom around September and October.
Go For Candles For A Warming Evening Glow
As the days become colder and shorter, we naturally tend to spend more time inside of our homes. Decorating your dining table or your breakfast table will help to make your space feel more cozy, homely and inviting throughout the colder months; elevating those everyday meals at the table as well as creating a perfect place to sit and entertain with friends and family.
Use clear vases or empty jars to place candles in various heights and neutral hues. Fill a tray with items including autumn leaves, pumpkins, red chilies, apples, pine cones, or conkers or any other natural elements that go with the theme.
Incorporate Natural Textures And Materials
Incorporating natural textures, fibers and materials is a great way to celebrate the autumn season. Rustic textures are perfect on a table throughout the autumn months such as braided or woven seagrass placements. Or try to bring a slice of log, with wooden place mats or coasters, or some golden-toned rattan. Using soft, washed linen napkins, tablecloths or runners is great for adding extra texture and will drape beautifully across your table. Linen has a thickness and depth to it that gives off warmth which is ideal for creating cosy evenings in.
