Medieval Party Table
The massive party table at our medieval party served as a decoration, a place for guests to sit, and the main area where all the food was served. One of the coolest features of the party was the stone backdrop wall that looked like old crumbly stones sitting in an ancient castle. Learn how to make a DIY Castle Backdrop with just a few supplies! To make the castle background look even more believable, I hung a shield and sword above the center of the table, along with two lanterns and some candles.
A dragon skeleton was perched on the table ready to attack anyone who comes near. Look closely and you'll see a pile of bones underneath him, which is all that's left of his last victims!
Three skeleton knights kept guard during the feast. The DIY Skeletons were very easy to put together using Life Size Poseable Skeletons. A medieval costume and medieval accessories really helped them come to life. Learn how to make the skeletons here.
White candles in a silver candelabra added to the ambiance of the party, as did the rest of the candles that were placed across the table. If you're afraid to use real candles, Battery-Operated Flameless Candles and Votives work just as well. Spider webs were stretched across the candles and the rest of the table to give the illusion that lots of time had gone by in the old, decrepit castle.
Loaves of bread and rolls, an assortment of fresh fruit, three whole chickens, ham and olives were left for the living party guests to feast on. The silver hammered serving trays were great for holding the roasted chickens and other medieval party food. Underneath the great feast was torn white and black cloth that fit the style of the party perfectly.
Each place setting consisted of a charger (spray painted purple), a black plate, a silver goblet, and gold utensils.
Scary spiders and realistic earthworms could be found around the table as well as on the skeletons. Black crows were perched on the table and even on a skeleton, hoping to get a taste of the food at the medieval feast.
Medieval Drink and Dessert Table
Drinks and desserts were served at a separate table. Black and white torn cloth added more layers to the table and upped the creepy factor of this party.
A hammered silver tray was placed on a gold cake plate and filled with cups of nuts and chocolate-covered almonds. In the middle of the tray sat a black cake plate with pastries and a curious crow perched on top.
More spider webs were stretched across different areas of the table to make the table seem ancient. A silver candelabra added the perfect glow to our table.
Silver goblets sat near the juice, just waiting to be filled with grape juice.
A Game of Bones Party Game is a great way to get everyone moving during the party and is a lot of fun to play. To get your celebration started on the right foot, download our free printable Medieval Halloween Party Invitations for your Halloween party!
