When thinking of Easter, several traditions come to mind — egg dyeing and hunts for the kids, church services, and, of course, moments of fellowship with family and friends. From dinners to brunches and even lunches, Easter is the perfect time to get creative and design a memorable tablescape. By the time the holiday arrives, the weather has warmed, and the season offers some of its best fresh ingredients — but the flowers, herbs, vegetables, and greenery are just the beginning.

Building a stunning Easter table is all about merging traditional elements with modern design. That might mean hosting an outdoor garden party instead of a formal dinner, putting a fresh twist on classic motifs like bunnies and Easter eggs, or experimenting with a new color palette. In short, you have options. Creating a tablescape your guests will adore doesn’t have to be complicated. Here are a few simple tips to help make it both picturesque and memorable.

A Whimsical Centerpiece Will Never Disappoint

Floral centerpieces are a go-to for spring events, including Easter. They’re beautiful, fresh, and timeless but not as appealing to kids. Instead of opting for a bouquet of signature flowers, this Easter egg centerpiece is a whimsical and fun option for everyone at the table. Instead of an intricate floral arrangement, it uses a simple display of flowers and brightly colored Easter eggs. Together, they create an eye-catching centerpiece that’s fitting for the holiday. Plus, it’s easy to recreate and can be a fun project for the kids.

Embrace the Garden Party Trend

Easter events are often held indoors, but taking them to the garden can be more fun. Even if you don’t have a picturesque backyard, you can still create a beautiful setup with patio furniture and simple table decorations. The key is to lean into the garden theme with lots of greenery. Emerald-colored glasses, cabbage-themed serving ware, and fresh plants or herbs are a good place to start and create a pretty table display.

Consider Modern Napkin Settings

These bunny napkins are all over TikTok this season for good reason. Sure, they’re a cute addition to your table, but they’re also a fresh take on traditional napkin ring settings. The design mimics rabbit ears and can be used in several different ways. This creator places them on top of the plates to show off the full shape. However, they can also be laid down on the plate in a more classic setting. Regardless of which way you choose to display them, your guests are sure to enjoy the creativity.

Try a Monochromatic Color Scheme

When thinking about Easter colors, a rainbow of pastel shades likely comes to mind. While there’s beauty in embracing the gamut of colors, opting for a monochromatic theme can be just as stunning. This look builds the table around a soft blue hue and uses various complementary shades to create the tonal look. Variation is key to adding dimension— after all, you don’t want your tablescape to fall flat. Along with the spectrum of blues, add touches of gold and white to round out the look.
