Do you find yourself skipping out on Halloween hosting in fear that the décor will take away from your table setting’s elegance? Too often we are stuck thinking that Halloween parties imply a sacrifice of style in the spirit of plastic skeletons and loads of pumpkins. But just like any other holiday, there are plenty of ways to put a refined twist on traditional table décor. If you’re looking to throw a spooky yet sophisticated soiree, we have assembled an elegant yet a little creepy tablescape to inspire your Halloween fete. Just read on and we’ll guide you through an exciting process of creating this set up from the scratch!

Linens

Halloween sets all the dark sides on fire! And dark linens for your table are always a safe bet and an affordable way to scare up compliments without breaking your Halloween budget. Hence, we have set the foundation for a frightfully fun Halloween table with our jet black velvet tablecloth and combined it with our beautiful and charming burgundy organza table runner for a chic and elegant look. Next comes in the selection of the perfect linens for your chair. We know that black and white is a timeless and universal combination to fit any occasion even if it is Halloween. To bewitch your guests with linens within this color palette, we have dressed the chairs with our black and white striped chair covers that have added a contemporary playfulness to our Halloween dinner party set up.

Place Settings

Another essential part of any tabletop ensemble is place setting. In order to bring a woodsy-dark feel into our place setting, we decided to set the stage with wood slices to serve as chargers for our stylish black and gold hexagonal-shaped plates to add some geometrical charm on our tablescape. To achieve a complete and cohesive look for our sophisticated set of place setting, we opted for our designer ware gold cutlery placed atop the plates and gold-dusted flutes and champagne glasses. For a further rugged Halloween touch and to embrace a natural aesthetic, we decided to spread some natural moss on our wooden slices. All in all, this display of gorgeous place setting will elevate your eerie yet elegant table setting that’ll be perfect for a more sophisticated soiree.

Centerpiece Decorations

Even if they don’t seem frightening on their own, majestic black candelabras and candleholders can add an eerie note to your tablescape. Our exquisite matte black and gold candelabra and antique-looking mercury glass candle holder crossed our minds instantly to decorate our Halloween dinner table. Not only have they added extra texture and a mysterious mood to our table décor, but they’ll also be fantastic conversation starters among your guests as they dine.

Additional Accents

Instead of frightening decorations, we conjured up a spookier atmosphere by limiting the light sources. We skipped the overhead lamp at the dinner table in favor of flameless and long-spooky tapered candles placed in gem cut candleholders and spread them all over our tablescape. Furthermore, we introduced votive candles to our mercury glass candleholder and LED candles to our large candelabra as well. Light up all the candles, dim the lights and welcome your guests to an elegantly eerie Halloween fete with this gorgeous arrangement.

When it comes to Halloween, floral arrangements were not at the top of our décor list. However, we were all in for a mix of burgundy greenery garlands and some black silk rose bouquets to give a little creepy but also a glamorous look to our Halloween tablescape. Moreover, we added some pine cones and black ostrich feathers to further put a Halloween spin on our floral garland.

We were craving for a garland to adorn our table setup, so we thought its best to do a simple DIY to add a little fun into the Halloween soiree. All that was required to make the garland was purple and orange ribbons, polka dot ribbons, scissors, a string, and a glue gun. We cut an almost equal length from each of the colored ribbon wheels with the help of a scissor and glued them on a string with a glue gun. Then, we arranged this gorgeous ribbon garland on our tablecloth to add a pop of Halloween-color to the tablescape.
