Linen Options to Elevate Your Event!

Upgrade Your Linens

Table linens, napkins, and runners that come standard with our packages can be exchanged for luxury options that will enhance your event's overall look and feel.

Exquisite linens can be the statement piece of a table which will save money later on when wedding venue decorations won't need to go the extra mile to compensate for, essentially, a standard empty table.

Textured tablecloths such as lace overlays, as seen below, allow for that "White Wedding" look with hints of color from the base linen peeking through.

It could be the significant detail that sticks with a guest as they look back on how elegant the evening felt.

Sometimes subtle lace accents are too demure for the type of event you're envisioning.

If you're looking down a more glamorous avenue, but the idea of collecting a dozen sparkly centerpieces is daunting, perhaps some dazzling sequined linens are exactly what you need!

All the glitz and glam are apparent immediately upon entering the room, allowing for simpler decorations, a thrifty trick!

 Farm Tables with their minimalist motif tend to need large sprawling garlands down the center to make the table seem less empty.

Decorative runners could be the economical solution to this issue. With bright pops of color to tie in with the floral arrangements, a fun napkin choice can polish everything off for the perfect constructed tablescape!

Just ask our gifted Coordinators to help introduce you to our endless Linen Upgrade options!

Dinnerware Upgrades!

Bring your place settings up to the same level as the rest of your table decor! Dinnerware, meaning the plates and chargers, is the largest part of a place setting and could dull your table with common plates. Using a combination of decorative china, chic stoneware, and striking chargers, your tables will shine! We’ve collected some of our favorites from previous clients who knew how important the right dinnerware was to their event motif.

China Plates

Printed Patterns

These are pretty enough to make your grandmother’s tea set jealous. What better way to share an occasion than serve guests dinnerware that says romance with every bite? These delicate plates are perfect for garden parties, formal outdoor events, Bridal and Baby showers, or even Spring season events like Mother’s Day!

Embossed

For something a little more classic but still traditionally “romantic,” these plates are our favorites! An elegant, white raised pattern covers the border of this upscale dinnerware. Subtle details, like these embossed plates, can draw out a whole sub-level of detail to complete the look of your table. There are tons of style options for this as well, so if you're looking for something fun but not as rustic, our coordinators have got you covered!

Solid Colors

Are white plates too plain? Try some colored or decorated options! With these, launch your event from tame to stunning!

Stoneware

A welcome refresh to white china, Stoneware perfectly compliments a modern minimalistic or chic, rustic tabletop design. Reminiscent of hand-made pottery, Lisbon Stoneware looks amazing on the finest linens or against natural wood-grain tables. Mix and match with Paris Stoneware for a unique look all your own.

Chargers

Chargers add an old-world class to events and, ever mindful of being stuck in the past, choose a style that brings out that same elegance with a dash of modern imagination!

Hammered and polished to a brilliant finish, our gold chargers will bring warmth and luster to your table setting. Studded, plain, ruffled, and brushed, these chargers come in different styles to best fit your overall motif!

Wood

The graceful lines of our Valentin wood chargers add visual appeal to your table with a discernible texture and two different finishes: a grey wash and a natural dark acacia wood.

Woven Wicker

The best part about a rustic-chic motif is the fun of mixing everything together! Grand metallic chargers can be swapped for these adorable woven mats and a classy cute napkin ring for polish! They're versatile, go with nearly every color, and add texture-- an often forgotten detail genre-- to an otherwise flat tabletop. We love these and your guests will too!

Ratan Mats

Round Brown Rattan Charger Plates create a rustic feeling to your tabletop decor. With a woven design and deep brown color, it can be used with any color dinnerware to protect the table from spills and messes while exuding a warm and inviting feeling.

Glass Sunburst

Bring a work of art to your tabletop! This charger’s irregular edge catches the eye and adds an exquisite touch of shimmer to your decor in gold, silver, and chocolate.

Glass With Gold Trim

Glass chargers with a gold band add an understated, fresh look to your table. A delicate glimmering accent along the rim makes this glass charger plate a glamorous enhancement to a plain table.

Glamorous Goblets for Every Occasion!

Color doesn't have to only come from the flower arrangements! Spice up your tablescape by adding pops of color at each seat with these gorgeous goblets. These come in all different styles and shapes as well, so stick with one color or even mix and match hues to encompass the full spectrum of your wedding pallet.

Bar Glassware

Have a signature drink? It wouldn't be an actual Mule without a copper mug! Your guests are sure to remember an eye-catching glass containing a tasty cocktail. Imagine your guests sipping elegantly from Martini Glasses or getting the party started with an authentic Margarita Glass in their hands. Authenticity elevates the look and feel of your event!

Farm Table Décor Inspiration

Table Trimmings And Garden Glory!

When deciding how to have your dining tables and centerpieces set, there tends to be much more to it than originally considered.  Chargers or none? Which type of plate? Silver or gold cutlery? Napkin color and fold? Favors? Garlands or vases? It just goes on and on. For those of us who aren't exactly visual, there might be too many details to imagine together.

Thankfully, we're here to help! We asked our talented coordination team here at The Old Rancho, and these are some of our favorite and most diverse examples of tabletop decor ideas. Hopefully, this helps narrow your search for decor and provide a bit more to visualize.

Spacious and Authentic

Many couples feel that the farm tables fit the tone that carries over from our historic Hacienda. Farm Tables also allow more elbow room for guests and space for large exciting centerpieces! The beautiful polished wood works so well with our Lower Lawn Reception Area. Surrounded by so much natural beauty, clients are drawn to the rustic romantic feel and want to emphasize it.

Tablescape Possibilities

There are endless combinations of glassware, silverware, chargers, and plates that we have available to make your tables look perfect on the big day. All it takes is some imagination! Start with a theme or mood you and your partner want to be the center of your motif. From there, napkin colors to centerpieces will start to fall into place. We love the rustic, “broody and beautiful” motif from Desire and Julian’s wedding here. Dark maroons, black, and bronze metallics brought an enchanting charm to our garden.
