Love a side of whimsy with your dinner? Then you’ll love this gorgeous and delicious Enchanted Forest Dinner Party. This is truly one of my all-time favorite tablescapes and menus to date. There’s just something so perfect about the purple and green color scheme, forage-inspired menu, and magical touches.

You’ll have to take my word for it when I tell you I poured my heart and soul into this magical menu, which is both easy and incredibly impressive. This is one of the most “me” parties to date, both in the look of the party decor and in the menu. If I could eat chicken, salad, cake, and perfect cocktail every day of my life, I would!

The Table

I repurposed my gorgeous green tablecloth from my Wicked party to set the scene for the Enchanted Forest, styling the table with magical rustic touches like pinecones, tree candlesticks, and mushrooms that would make my guests feel like they sat down in the middle of the Enchanted Forest for a meal.

The Flowers

Instead of my usual large floral arrangements, I opted for a bunch of little bud vases scattered around filled with various purple and pink flowers. I used white roses, pink and purple stock, pink alstroemeria, purple carnations, and purple campanula for a magical fairy-core look.

The Place Settings

I set each place with a real wood charger, my Emma plates from pottery barn, my branch forks, and gauzy sage green napkins casually tied with rustic twine. These chargers are real slices of tree trunk that my dad treated to make them glossy. Aren’t they perfect for a forest theme?

The Ambiance

I decorated with fabulous forest touches like branches, my owl vase, and the most magical tree light. I also added white and purple wisteria to both my chandelier and my china cabinet. Last but certainly not least, I brought my two potted cypress trees in the house to make it look and smell like a forest.

The Drink

What’s more fairy core than sparkling Elderflower Sangria? This easy drink is the perfect way to serve a crowd. It’s especially magical garnished with edible flowers and fruit. Get the recipe here.

I’m obsessed with this forage-themed menu.
