Spring Styling & Hosting with Side Serve
Nothing says spring like a table layered with texture, rich colour, and playful details. At our recent Home Collective event, Sabrina Bruni-Zappia – Event Stylist and Owner of Side Serve created the dreamiest seasonal setup – think floor-sweeping rich apricot tablecloths layered for extra texture, knotted linen napkins draped casually over the table, and pops of colour in the centrepieces.
The look is equal parts relaxed and refined. Plates were a mix of floral patterns and plain designs, stacked neatly to create interest, while cutlery flanked the plates on both sides for a balanced, approachable feel. Napkins added that effortless “lived-in” style, tied in knots or draped over the table for movement.
Glassware was layered to catch the light beautifully, and the centre of the table played with subtle pops of colour – including decorative stands and a mini puzzle from Side Serve – bringing playful spring energy without overwhelming the look.
The result? A tablescape that feels welcoming, cheerful, and perfectly spring – one you’ll want to linger over, whether it’s a long lunch, a garden gathering, or just a little seasonal joy for your dining space.
