Halloween is right around the corner, and what better time to start planning a fabulous Halloween dinner party for your family and friends than now? I love Halloween, and love decorating my home with Halloween knick-knacks and fun antique pieces from top to bottom. Entertaining guests around Halloween is also something I love to do. I look forward to our annual Halloween traditions throughout the year, and my friends and family love receiving my yearly Halloween party invitation in the mail. It's something that we all look forward to!
I've never been into all the blood, guts and gore when it comes to Halloween, so when thinking of a theme for my Halloween dinner party this year I wanted to incorporate items that were chic and pretty, with a little bit of spooky "creepy crawly" added to the mix. I love the current floral craze. I mean, flowers have always been "in", but they are definitely THE hot item to incorporate into parties right now. I absolutely love the trend! So, speaking of florals, who says flowers can't be spooky? Packed with florals, bright colors, creepy cobwebs, spiders, lace and fabulous decor, this Spooky Floral Halloween Party is filled with perfect Halloween party decorating ideas. From the inviting tablescape, to the warm glow coming from the sparkling votives, this party is sure to inspire.
Red, pink, gold, black and turquoise made up the color pallet for this spooky floral Halloween tablescape. The DIY Floral Backdrop along with the DIY Spooky Parasols set the perfect scene and made for a fabulous ambiance. I love how the rustic industrial table made the tabletop items pop. The rustic elements added the needed vintage touch to the spread.
These Spooky Floral Dinner Plates were chic and creepy all at the same time. I love the combination of skulls and flowers. They were exactly what I was looking for. Adding delicious chocolate cupcakes to the adorable dessert plates is just what the dinner party needed! After all, a dinner party without dessert isn't a party at all!
Upside down parasols make a fabulous decorating element and really complete the space. And yes, I had to add flowers to this decoration as well! Find the full tutorial on how to create them yourself here.
The Black Champagne Flutes held the Spooky Floral Beverage Napkins with elegance. This is an easy way to add class and dress up your table while still making it functional. I love the Premium Metallic Gold Cutlery and the Spooky Floral Dinner Napkins that we placed on the right side of each setting. The utensils added so much elegance to the table without hurting the pocketbook (or the dishwasher, seeing that they are 100% disposable), and the napkins just couldn't be beat.
Creepy cobwebs filled with lurking Scary Spiders surrounded the Halloween tablescape. The foam flowers were so easy to paint and hang, too! Find the full tutorial here.
The Gold Glitter Pumpkin Votive Holders and Gold Glitter Votive Holders were placed along the center of the table and made a fabulous centerpiece and focal point. The glitter sparkled in the flicker of the White Battery-Operated Tea Light Candles.
DIY Bone Place Card Holders sat above each table setting awaiting guests. Make them yourself by following my easy step-by-step tutorial here. So what are you waiting for? Go ahead and start imagining your own Halloween Dinner Party and start the planning process today!
