The popular drama Bridgerton is set in the Regency era, a brief period in the early 1800s known for lavish parties and opulent decor. Table settings inspired by this period can lend a sense of elegance and extravagance to your wedding reception. If you want to duplicate this look, here are a few items to get from a wedding rental company.

How to Create Regency Dinner Tables for Your Reception

1. Farm and Estate Tables

A long table allows for easy conversation with diners next to or across from one another while leaving space in the middle for centerpieces and serving dishes. It was a popular choice for Regency-era dinner parties. If possible, choose a solid wood model for your event table rental, as the authentic material helps set the atmosphere.

2. Table Linens

While an everyday meal in the Regency era might have been served at a bare table, parties called for a light-colored, floor-length tablecloth. Floral prints had come into wide use just a few decades before and were popular choices, although solid white, cream, rose, and pastel linens were also common and are offered by many wedding rental companies today. Napkins and a table runner provide a color contrast and an extra layer of embellishment.

3. Tableware

Elaborate china is a must for any Bridgerton-inspired table, preferably with vintage patterns that help the dishes stand out against an already-opulent backdrop. Multipiece flatware place settings also fit the image of a lavish feast. 

Cut-glass goblets and silver serving dishes can make the table glitter, especially when paired with candles in tall metal candlesticks. When choosing vases and flower arrangements to complete the look, opt for a style short enough not to block your guests’ view across the table.
