1. Pastel color palette
Start your planning by selecting your colors – in this case elegant and feminine pastels. Think of light pink, yellow, purple, blues and greens, says Krawiec. These soft shades capture the essence of the Rococo design, which is romantic, light and airy with a bizarre edge. Use them in everything from decor to desserts.
2. Colorful porcelain and glassware
A breathtaking table is crucial for every Rococo party, and the right China, the cutlery and the glassware play an important role in compilation. Krawiec, an expert in elegant table landscapes for events of all kinds, says that plates with decorated details (such as flower patterns) should be colorful. The silver should be elegant in gold or silver areas, and glasses should have gold-plated accents or romantic colors.
“Think playfully and yet refined when you create an atmosphere that is reminiscent of the French aristocracy of the 18th century,” she says.
3 .. Fresh (but not too unusual) flowers
Every party could benefit from fresh flowers, and a party on the subject of Rococo is no exception. However, if you are not planning a big event or a wedding, Krawiec recommends keeping the flowers more conservative so that they do not venture into the territory of the CottageCore.
“In order to keep this aesthetic taste in the modern party decor, I recommend tightening excessive flowers and enabling the elegance of preventing and gilded accents in order to speak-it creates a beautiful, cried effect,” she says.
This means that you don't have to emphasize too much about your arrangements. Take one or two bouquet of flowers from your local florist or supermarket and disperse them tastefully in your decor. Mix and fit decorated and rapply flowers (such as roses, peony, hydrangeas, cloves and lilies).
4. Arches, ruffles and lace in abundance
The Rococo style is known for being lady and tender. So don't be afraid to integrate many arches, ruffles and lace into your party decor. Curved lines are also a typical part of aesthetics (instead of slim geometric shapes). So integrate details such as overgrown edges and soft, rounded shapes. Feel free to borrow some ideas from the permanent koquette aesthetics. Tie the ligaments together with delicate golden candle holders, show the laundry with flower patterns in soft colors and complete as many ruffles as possible.
5. Gilded accents
The golden border that adorn the plates and dinner of every Pinterest photo in Rococo-style is called gilded details and is a trademark of this wasteful style. Krawiec suggests implementing gold -plated touch in her decor in order to give every event elegance.
“I love working with gilded touches,” she says. Complicated metallic details reinforce a touch of romance, glamor and mood. ”
6. A luxurious menu
The French are known for many things (fashion, culture and arts come to mind), but nothing exceeds their exquisites. Regardless of whether you serve changing starters or have a complete five-course menu, let your kitchen inspire your menu. From starters such as hearty tartlets, fresh oysters and sausages to hearty dishes such as chicken proven, beef bouruignon or juicy steaks that are perfectly prepared, the French know how to eat. (However, if you want to stay in the topic, leave the French fries for the after party.)

7. Detailed dessert ads
A thoughtful dessert selection is practically a must at every event with the topic of rococo. Improve your guests with towers with tender French pastries, colorful macarons, towers of croquet baking, tartlets and much more. Use stretched cake stands, colorful plates and cupcake stands in gold and silver surfaces to show your sweets stylish.
If the thought of a complex dessert table sounds intimidating and expensive – it doesn't have to be. For small and intimate dinner parties with a limited budget in rococo-thematic dinner topics, you should consider obtaining cake and cupcake stands from economy shops, which often have an impressive collection of vintage articles that meet the topic. Pee biscuits bought in the store will look just as fabulous on the dessert table as their handmade alternatives (and we will not say it, promise!). Rococo aesthetics may be wasteful, but also accessible.
8. On-theme dress code
It would not be a Rococo event without a focus on fashion. Implement a dress code on the topic to bring your party to the next level. Regardless of whether you organize an intimate dinner or a birthday party, ask your guests to dress to impress, Marie Antoinette Style, is an entertaining way to contract everything together. Do not hold back on the wasteful corset dresses, exaggerated silhouettes, complicated patterns and many ruffles.
