A Rhodes Guide to Entertaining

Setting your dining table is an essential part of entertaining. When guests arrive for a dinner party, having a set table can create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Newlyweds are often setting up their home as they wish to share it with friends and family. When brides register for their table settings at Rhodes Home & Gift we love to help them create a look that fits their personal style. Many brides are opting to register for gorgeous glassware, serving dishes, linens and home decor items rather than the traditional china. At Rhodes Home & Gift we offer lots of fun pieces to register for to make your dining table all your own. 

When choosing what items to register for, we always suggest a good set of white plates. White plates act as transitional pieces and can give your table a flawless, modern look. Pairing our favorite woven placemats, the Calaisio Round Placemat with Beads adds texture to an otherwise sleek look.

We also love the addition of the Goldbug Napkin Ring for a pretty pop. The napkin ring is paired nicely with our Fez gold faceted glassware. Pair a tumbler with a stemless champagne flute or wine glass. 

Our white plates can be paired with a variety of placemats, napkins and decor to fit any theme or season. Whether you are hosting a holiday party or a Springtime luncheon for your ladies, adding a fun placemat can add that special touch to complete your look. 

Lastly, we love a good centerpiece. Whether it is a stunning floral arrangement, traditional candles or holiday decor, a centerpiece brings a fun statement to the table. Our faux orchids are an easy solution to keep that finished look year round. For holidays, we love festive decor items to pull into the tablescape for a fun addition. We are also big fans of figurines such as our white parrot for added style and sophistication.
