Setting a Summer Table with Flowers

Flowers at the table should invite conversation, not stand in its way. Low, loose arrangements bring color and movement while keeping every face in view.

Repeat, do not match

Use two or three small vessels and repeat a color or flower between them. The group will feel connected without becoming too formal.

Leave room for dinner

Set the flowers first, then make sure platters and glasses still have space. A few beautiful stems can do more than one oversized centerpiece.
