The main elements of serving
- Color scheme
The main color of St. Patrick’s Day is green. It can be complemented with white, gold and orange to create stylish combinations. Use green tablecloths, napkins and tableware to emphasize the theme of the holiday.
- Dishes and utensils
Choose tableware that matches the style: glass goblets with green hues, white or golden plates, cutlery with Celtic patterns. If you want to add playfulness, you can use themed glasses with shamrock symbols.
- Table centerpiece
Create the center of the composition from live green plants, flowers or decorative figures in the shape of leprechauns and horseshoes. A small bouquet of green carnations or sprigs of clover is perfect. Gold coins (chocolate or decorative) can also be an interesting decorative element.
- textiles
Use green or checkered tablecloths, complementing them with napkins with thematic patterns. Linen or cotton napkins with embroidered shamrocks or Celtic patterns will add a touch of sophistication.
Additional accents
- Guest cards
Create name cards featuring shamrocks or leprechauns. Not only is it pretty, but it will help guests find their seats at the table.
- Decorative candles
Green and gold candles in glass candlesticks will give the table coziness and solemnity. You can use scented candles with notes of herbs and greens.
- themed beverage service
Serve the table with drinks in green glasses or decorate the edges of the glasses with green colored sugar edging. Traditional Irish beer, liqueurs and cocktails with the addition of mint will emphasize the holiday atmosphere.
