A Classic Christmas Table: Timeless Elegance
A classic Christmas table exudes tradition and sophistication. Begin with a pristine white or ivory tablecloth to create a clean foundation. At Options Greathire, you can hire elegant tablecloths and matching napkins in timeless shades. Pair this with our gold or silver chargers, cutlery, and glassware to bring a luxurious touch to your table. Red and green accents, such as napkins or runners, add the perfect festive pop of colour. For a warm ambiance, candles are essential. Use gold or silver candle holders from our collection to complement the metallic tones of your tableware. To enhance the traditional charm, incorporate natural elements like sprigs of holly, pinecones, or cinnamon sticks as part of the centrepiece. Renting beautiful crockery and cutlery from Options Greathire ensures your table looks polished and refined without the hassle of ownership.
A Rustic Christmas Table: Natural and Warm
For a cosy and inviting atmosphere, a rustic Christmas table is an ideal choice. Opt for a wooden table or cover it with earthy-toned linens available for hire at Options Greathire. Use natural materials like burlap for runners and linen napkins for an authentic rustic feel. Wooden chargers and ceramic plates from our rental collection complete the look, creating a warm and natural aesthetic. The centrepiece should be filled with greenery such as eucalyptus, fir branches, or ivy, intertwined with fairy lights or candles for a magical touch. Placeholders can be crafted from wooden tags, while napkins tied with twine and a sprig of rosemary add charm. Our rental options for rustic-style chairs and serving accessories make it easy to curate the perfect countryside-inspired Christmas table.
A Modern Minimalist Christmas Table: Sleek and Stylish
Minimalist elegance is perfect for those who prefer a contemporary style. A neutral colour palette of white, grey, and black serves as the foundation for this theme. Rent a sleek grey or white tablecloth and pair it with our geometric-shaped chargers and contemporary cutlery to achieve a modern aesthetic. For a minimalist centrepiece, keep it simple with a single tall candle in a metallic holder or a small arrangement of white flowers. Black napkins tied with metallic ribbons add a sophisticated contrast. At Options Greathire, you’ll find an extensive selection of modern crockery, chairs, and tables that align seamlessly with this theme. The focus here is on clean lines and balance, ensuring your table is stylish yet functional.
A Whimsical Christmas Table: Fun and Playful
Inject fun and creativity into your Christmas celebration with a whimsical table. Bright colours and festive patterns bring this theme to life. Start with a vibrant tablecloth, such as red or green, and layer it with plates and chargers in contrasting colours from Options Greathire’s rental collection. Add playful elements to the centrepiece, such as mini Christmas trees, colourful baubles, or figurines of reindeer and snowmen. Edible decorations like candy canes or gingerbread houses make delightful additions. Finish the look with festive crackers at each place setting. Renting vibrant crockery and decorative accessories ensures your whimsical table is both fun and visually stunning.
A Luxe Glam Christmas Table: Opulent and Extravagant
For a bold and glamorous look, a luxe Christmas table embraces deep colours, rich textures, and sparkling accents. Start with a velvet tablecloth in shades of emerald green, burgundy, or navy blue. Pair it with gold or silver chargers, satin napkins, and opulent crockery from our rental collection. The centrepiece should be extravagant, featuring tall candlesticks, crystal glassware, and a garland adorned with metallic baubles and ribbons. Renting velvet chairs and large statement tables from Options Greathire ensures your setting is fit for a grand celebration. This theme is ideal for formal dinners or festive parties that call for an opulent touch.
Personalised Table Settings: A Unique Touch for Your Guests
Adding personalised elements to your Christmas table makes your guests feel special. Consider name cards with handwritten messages or small gifts at each place setting, such as mini ornaments or candles. Renting matching crockery, glassware, and decorative items from Options Greathire allows you to create a cohesive and polished look that enhances these personal touches.
