Hosting an outdoor event: A guide to decorating an outdoor dining table

by Ryan Arnt 06/05/2024


Do you enjoy hosting dinner parties or delight in fine dining decor? Maybe you have a penchant for entertaining at home and want a few ways to spruce up your outdoor table and relaxation area. Whatever the reason for your curiosity, there are always a tips and tricks to help get, and keep, the creative juices flowing. 



Pick a color scheme for your table decor

Choose a color scheme before you start designing your table layout. This will set the foundation for the decor you purchase and sets a sharper focus for your outdoor dining table aesthetic. 

For an earthy appeal, try beige, soft browns and forest green. For a summer appeal, try bright yellows, oranges, and blues. If you’re having a winter shindig, try blues, whites and silvers to emulate the winter festivities, regardless of location.



Add a beautiful living centerpiece

Fresh flowers make for a stunning centerpiece. They can be arranged in many ways and are sure to add a soft ambiance. Plants work well to the same degree. Also, try adding fresh fruit as the centerpiece of the table to create visual interest. Not only will fruit add a pop of color, it’s also a tasty treat to go along with your meal. 



Transform the space with an elegant tablecloth

It’s important to lay down a good visual foundation for your outdoor table decor. Do so by adding a lavish tablecloth. When choosing your table cloth, make sure it’s made of quality material and is good for outdoor use. Try bright pigments to give your dining table a bold splash. Also, try mixing and matching colors and patterns to make the decor dazzle. 



Prep your outdoor table for a special occasion

Are you preparing for a special event and want to create a ravishing table design? Transform your outdoor space by adding elegant glassware and keeping the color scheme simplistic. Garnish the center of the table with vibrant flower combinations. 

Decorating an outdoor table can really set the scene for your next dinner party. Once you have a theme in mind, pick out flowers and plants that best fit the vibe you’re going for.

I have called Southwest Michigan home for 40 years. My mother's family ran a local locksmith service, and my father served as the Chief Investigator for the County's Prosecutor's office for many years. I love all that this area offers, and I enjoy serving the buyers and sellers who are moving in or out of Southwest Michigan.

My wife and I have two children, and we would not want to raise them anywhere else. Between the award-winning schools and the plethora of youth activities offered in Southwest Michigan, it's a great place to call home. We enjoy spending time with friends at the beach, boating, golfing, hunting, skiing "Up North," and fishing.

We give back generously to the community that has been so good to us. Currently, I serve on the Lakeshore Public Schools Foundation Board (LEF), as Past President of the St. Joe Kickers Sports Club, and as a Rotarian in the Stevensville-Lakeshore Rotary Club. We donate throughout the year to various local organizations, schools, and youth sports groups.
