Keep It Simple
- Start with white or off-white serving pieces and linens. White is versatile, allowing you to incorporate vibrant colors without overdoing it.
- Add color and interest by garnishing food. Dress up a store-bought cheesecake by topping it with fresh berries and chocolate sauce.
- Tuck colorful flowers inside decorative napkin rings to brighten up neutral linens. You can also use greenery and other elements, such as tassels or beads.
- Continue your palette by arranging complementary flowers in a simple vase.
