This post is all about Easter table setting ideas to inspire you this Spring!
Easter is one of the loveliest holidays of the year and not just because it’s a celebration of Spring (and Jesus’ resurrection for religious folks). It’s also a period of renewal and hope as well as the perfect day to spend time with your family and friends.
One of my favorite things about Easter is having a traditional Easter dinner! Many people love the glazed ham but the delicious roast leg of lamb with roasted or mashed potatoes is what does it for me personally! And of course, I always appreciate the effort that goes into making an Easter tablescape!
If you’re hosting Easter dinner this year and you’re looking for some inspiration, here are 20 stunning Easter table setting ideas to inspire you!
Ready to decorate your Easter table for dinner? Here are a few Easter table setting ideas to get you inspired:
Easter eggs – Easter eggs symbolize rebirth and new life, so it isn’t really Easter if Easter eggs don’t make an appearance on your tablescape! I love the Easter chocolate eggs, the plastic eggs with really funky patterns and the more eco-friendly and creative honeycomb paper Easter eggs! Whatever type of Easter eggs you choose, you can place them in a basket or trinket dish in the middle of the table, hang them as ornaments on a plant or use them with napkins (you’ll find more details about this on the “Folded bunny ear napkins” idea).
Floral centerpiece – To really make your Easter tablescape look beautiful, add a floral centerpiece! Flowers symbolize new birth and the triumph of life over death, which makes them the perfect decoration for your tablescape for Easter dinner. Generally, Easter lilies are the popular choice as they’re the traditional Easter flower. However, there are other nice flowers that you can go for including daffodils, tulips and hyacinths.
Folded bunny ear napkins – I love seeing napkins made into bunny ears on Easter tablescapes! They’re so creative and cute that it almost makes anyone feel bad using the napkin for what it’s actually made for! And what I love about this, is that you can create it at home with the napkins you already have! There are many ways to fold napkins into bunny ears, I personally like the ones that lay flat on the table surface with an Easter egg inside of it (check out a tutorial here). But, you can go for 3D folded bunny ear napkins too (check out a tutorial here).
Bunny statue – Easter bunny statues are such a cute addition to Easter tablescapes! You can go for a simple pastel bunny or a more quirky bunny statue where they’re holding carrots, an egg or even an Easter basket!
Pastel – Pastel is the color of Easter! So if you’re not sure what theme to choose for your Easter table setting, you can’t go wrong with pastels! Whether it’s pastel flowers, a pastel tablecloth or pastel stoneware, you’re tablescape color theme will look exquisite for Easter dinner!
20 Easter Table Setting Ideas
1. Pastel Galore
As I previously mentioned, you can’t go wrong with a pastel color theme for your Easter tablescape and this is a prime example! The pastel pink napkins on pink plates on pink placemats look so pretty, not to mention how cute the egg basket looks with that bow! I love how the center of the table is filled with beautiful pastel flowers too!
2. Cute and Simple
If you’re looking for an Easter table setting that doesn’t do too much or too little, then this idea is perfect! Although it’s quite simple, it still embraces the Easter spirit with folded bunny ear napkins, pastel tulips, Easter eggs and a pastel table runner! Make sure to add some candles too as they will look lovely when lit up at dinner!
3. Rainbow
This Easter table setting is so gorgeous because of how colorful it is! From the florals, the flower shaped stoneware and the mini statues! Of course, the centerpiece can’t be missed too. It’s quite an unusual but unique centerpiece with a nest filled with eggs and a bunny in the middle which is just the cutest thing!
4. Clashing patterns
Some people say that patterns shouldn’t clash but that doesn’t apply to this tablescape! The patterned tableware gives tapestry vibes and the striped table runner goes with it so well! Add some pastel bunny statues, Easter eggs and a vase centerpiece to really bring everything together!
5. Cottage Core
This Easter table setting is quite different from the others on this list. The color scheme isn’t as bright as the others but has warm, natural tones that give it a cozy cottage core vibe instead. Use seagrass woven placemats along with wooden charcuterie boards and wooden egg cups! Lastly, grab a centerpiece with gorgeous Easter lilies that are perfect for the occasion!
6. Egg-tastic
With this Easter table setting, the Easter eggs are the star of the show! Egg ornaments are hanging on the centerpiece, there are mini eggs and eggs wrapped around folded bunny ear napkins! Also, add a charcuterie board with croissants, a plate of hot cross buns and a teapot to make the dinner table look yummy and cozy!
7. Hoppy to be home
The cutest thing you might realise about this tablescape is the bunny eggcups. They are such an adorable addition to the table setting design! Stick to the bunny theme by adding folded bunny ear napkins on every plate too!
The center of the table is gorgeous as well! To achieve this look, add a lace table runner then place an Easter egg garland, a vase of white tulips and battery operated flameless candles on top!
8. Minimalistic
This Easter table setting is more minimalistic than the rest on this list, but still captures aspects of what makes Easter, Easter!
For the centerpiece, use a vase and fill it with white flowers, Then to decorate the center of the table, add some bunny statues and a plate full of eggs!
9. HAPPY EASTER
To turn your Easter dinner into a very festive Easter dinner, hang up a pastel “Happy Easter” pennant banner decoration and an Easter egg garland above the table!
For the actual table setting, lay a table runner and decorate the top of it with garlands, pastel Easter eggs, a vase of tulips and candles!
10. Easter picnic
So this Easter table setting idea isn’t set up as a literal picnic but if you’re looking to recreate an Easter picnic vibe at the dinner table, go for a bright gingham tablecloth! Then use a bouquet of flowers as the centrepiece and add a lot of bunny statues! The bunny details on the plates are also a nice touch!
11. Cerulean treillage
The cerulean treillage pattern on this Easter table setting makes it look so eye-catching! To wow your guests with his look, lay a cerulean treillage tablecloth and napkins on the table with plates that have a funky design. Add some pastel tapered candles, pots of flowers, a few Easter eggs and viola!
12. The meaning of Easter
Well, the whole point of Easter even existing is the religious holiday that celebrates the death and resurrection of Jesus. So if you’re religious and want to add a more religious element to your Easter table setting, then this is a perfect idea!
The centerpiece is really the star of the show which you can recreate with shredded paper, a vase of daisies, eggs and a wooden cross sign.
13. Pretty in pink
Pink goes with everything!! Decorate your Easter table with pink tableware, pink napkins, pink (and glittery) eggs, pink flowers in pink flower pots and pink tapered candles!
14. Easter banquet
This Easter tablescape gives major banquet vibes, especially with the embossed goblet glassware! Make your table runner gingham and have it match all the plates for a cohesive look! Then add small bowls of mini eggs and statues of bunnies of all different sizes with a large bouquet as the centerpiece!
15. Sleek and simple
Although this Easter table setting is simple, it has a very sleek design that makes it look charming. For your table runner choose a light gray color and for the centerpiece, use a pot of tulip flowers. Add a few bunny statues and bunny shaped candle holders to compete the look!
16. Farmhouse beauty
If you want to go all out as the designated Easter dinner host, decorate the dinner table as well as your mantle too! For the table, focus on the details such as the napkin patterns, the design on the table cloths and the floral centerpiece. Then for your mantle, decorate it with a garland and bunny shaped pennant banners! You could even add a bunny statue and sign if you’d like!
17. Easter garden
Make your Easter tablescape feel like walking through a garden by adding tons of flowers in the middle of the table! Add some candles, bone china, colorful eggs, rabbit-themed napkins and rabbit statues to bring the whole look together.
I just love how this tablescape looks like a tea party in the garden!
18. Peter Rabbit
Peter Rabbit is of course a rabbit, so having a Peter Rabbit Easter themed tablescape is such a great idea! To recreate this, simply get Peter Rabbit themed plates, cup and china then for the centerpiece, place a rabbit plushie on top of a bouquet of flowers (even better if you can find a plushie of Peter Rabbit).
19. Spring florals
This Easter table setting adds floral elements that look so cute, from the rose vases to the floral placemats! To stay on the Easter theme, add some faux moss mini Easter bunnies for the centerpiece and a few bunny statues!
20. Light and bright
Yellow is a happy color so go for a yellow color theme to embody the happiest vibes for your Easter dinner! Use a striped yellow and white tablecloth and, yellow/gold glittery eggs and yellow tapered candles. Then use a lemon tree as the centerpiece!
