As a first step, you should set the tablecloth. It doesn’t have to cover the entire tabletop. Instead, it can be simple square linen that exposes part of the table surface. Cover the table surface so that the corners of the table linen align with the four edges of the table.
Don’t forget the napkins. You may require colored napkins to contrast with the white tablecloth. Of course, you can play around with the positioning and placement of the napkin to create a unique look.

Place a white, silver, and gold table setting at every corner of the white tablecloth. It is neutral, lovely, and easy to dress up, down, or differently. You don’t need expensive silver chargers for this tablescaping project. Today it’s easier to get a sturdy, lightweight, and inexpensive silver charger.
Once you have the silver charger in place, get a gold-edged, scalloped dinner plate and put it on top. Add a gold-accented salad plat. In this case, the gold embellishment on the plates acts as a welcome accent. Alternatively, you can use predominantly gold-colored pieces with a silver accent.

With pink garden roses, you can create a perfect centrepiece that not only makes your tablescaping elegant but is also easy to execute. If you cannot find fresh roses, then use any available flowers. You can either get the flowers from your garden or the nearest florist.
Pink garden roses are great because they make your table look fresh. They work perfectly well with a neutral silver and gold table setting. You can put your roses in a crystal or clear glass for a more significant effect.

When selecting candlesticks, it’s essential to go for those that match the other elements in the setting. Since silver is the primary color, it would help to choose more extensive silver and smaller, lighter gold candlesticks.
If the silver candlesticks have hanging crystals, they will significantly accentuate the crystal vases and glasses. Besides, they make the table lighter and airier.
