Designing and curating artistic environments is Moriarty’s favourite part within event production, generating innovative ideas and moulding them into a reality. However, when it comes to Christmas a simple and elegant table can be the perfect touch for a festive design. We love interweaving tradition and creativity within all our Christmas tablescapes, producing intimate and cosy settings that are undeniably beautiful. Discover our go to styling tips below and learn how to recreate a Moriarty tablescape within your home!
1) Layering
When creating a Christmas tablescape, weaving an array of shades throughout elevates even the simplest of colour themes and creates the perfect dinner setting. Incorporating a variety of colours, textures and tones will not only add depth, but unravel a look filled with delicate details.
2) Height
Using different heights on a table including various candle shapes offers an undulating view to the tablescape, adding to the texture and fullness to your design.It is important to ensure that any tall candles don’t disrupt sight lines across your table, so guests can see and talk with each other with ease throughout their dinner (specifically on a rectangular or square table)
3) Personalisation
Christmas is the season of sentimentality, making it the perfect opportunity to add a personal touch. Designing each individual place setting with bespoke details or a small takeaway item, such as homemade Sloe Gin, encapsulates the season of giving at your table!

5) Evoke all the senses
With stunning visuals in place, the environment can now be elevated through adding a notorious Christmas smell. Scented candles and room sprays are perfect, also adding a small spritz onto each napkin will help to fill a room with seasonal smells once guests are seated.
These tips will help to elevate any Christmas table setting, whether it involves a traditional colour pallet or a contemporary design.Throughout this year, we have loved adding an embroidered velvet bow to our festive stylings, offering each guest some seasonal luxury when they take their seat!
Overall, providing plenty of tone and texture to your table is a guaranteed way to create a table design that will amaze your guests and make a truly unforgettable Christmas!
