Party tableware & table decor
There are 393 products.
Party tableware and table decor turn a laid table into the heart of any celebration – a children’s birthday, baby shower, communion, christening, Halloween or New Year’s Eve. In this category you will find everything that goes on the table: napkins, paper plates, wooden cutlery, cups, tablecloths, table runners and placemats. Many items come in the same design, so you can match plates, cups and napkins and decorate the whole table around one theme.
Ideas for the party table
The easiest way is to start with a theme. For a children’s birthday there is party tableware featuring Paw Patrol, Spiderman, Super Mario, unicorns, dinosaurs, mermaids, pirates, football, firefighters, construction sites or space. For a new baby or a baby shower, choose ranges such as “Hello Baby”, “Hey Baby Botanical” or “It’s a girl”. For communions and christenings there are napkins, paper plates and cups labelled “Communion” as well as “Baptême” (christening) table runners in linen, jute or organza. At Halloween, bats, spider webs and ghosts join the table; for New Year’s Eve, “Happy New Year” and “Bonne Année”.
If you prefer a simple look, choose plain-coloured party tableware: napkins, paper plates and paper cups come in many colours, for example orange, yellow, black, pink, light purple or teal. That way the table decor matches your balloons, garlands and cake.
The four sections at a glance
- Napkins: paper napkins with a design or in plain colours, plus napkin rings and a napkin holder.
- Plates & cutlery: large and small paper plates, wooden cutlery and a cutlery holder.
- Cups: paper cups, plastic cups and party cups, plus cup sleeves.
- Tablecloths & table runners: paper or plastic tablecloths, table runners and placemats.
Planning your party tableware
- Count your guests: the quantity is shown on every item. Allow two napkins per person and a spare cup.
- Large and small plates: small paper plates suit cake and dessert, large ones the main course or the buffet.
- One design, one base colour: combine patterned plates with plain napkins or cups in a colour taken from the design. The result looks calm and coordinated.
- Table first: the tablecloth or runner sets the frame; tableware and decorations follow.
What to look for when buying
Check diameter, capacity and quantity in the product description: many paper plate sets state Ø 23 cm, many party cups 250 ml. Make sure the designs of one range go together, and order in good time for larger parties so you get enough packs of the same design. For a long table, a table runner is ideal: it adds colour without covering the whole surface.
Frequently asked questions
Can I mix party tableware with different designs?
Yes. A proven approach is one main design on the plates, complemented by plain napkins and cups. Choose a colour that appears in the design.
Is there table decor for communions and christenings?
Yes. For communions there are napkins, paper plates, cups and a linen “Communion” table runner; for christenings several “Baptême” table runners and dove napkin rings.
What else belongs on a birthday table besides tableware?
Balloons, garlands and paper straws complete the table decor. You will find them at Cakelicious too, among our party decorations.
With the right party tableware, your table becomes the backdrop of the celebration: pick a theme, match plates, cups and napkins – and your table decor is ready.
