Celebrate your love with these amazing romantic dinner decoration ideas

Here are some ideas for a night to remember

1. Romantic table settings

You've probably seen some gorgeous examples of romantic table settings at weddings, or at dinner dates on Valentine's Day at restaurants, but have you tried doing this at home? Get some inspiration from Google Images or from Pinterest. You'll find lots of ideas, and often at very affordable prices! Even flowers on the table will make the dinner special, but if you really want to treat your partner and yourself, let your creativity fly with something uniquely beautiful!

2. Ambient lighting

You might have a dimmer switch in your dining room, but why limit yourself? There's a wide range of beautiful lanterns and candles available. We love the Maya Blanc lanterns by a French decoration company called SkyLanterns, which is popular in France with brides and grooms and beloved by decoration hobbyists there. And they're not just for the dining room; lanterns are perfect for a dinner in the garden, too!

3. Tableware

Nothing says "special occasion" like an elegant, beautiful tableware set that only sees the light of day at romantic dinners. It adds beauty while helping to break up the monotony of your day-to-day meals on a psychological level, because it says "this is something out of the ordinary". Be inspired by what you've seen in beautiful restaurants, and give elegant tableware a try!

4. The meal itself

This is often overlooked, but if you're making a home-cooked meal, there's potential to make it a decoration too. Edible flowers are a popular choice. Wikipedia lists dozens of varieties in many colours, so you may even be able to match them to your table setting. If you're an artistic type, you may want to take a cue from the Japanese art of decorative cutting, and learn how to make garnishes in adorable shapes such as flowers and hearts. The Japanese are also well-known for their highly decorative bento lunchboxes: a quick search
