Champagne Brunch Alfresco Tablescape

 
Last week’s cool mornings were perfect for an outdoor breakfast, and I drew inspiration from my vibrant Williams-Sonoma lemon plates to create a stunning tablescape. The result was a bold, colorful setup that brought joy to the meal.
I started with a whimsical lemon-patterned tablecloth from SporGenix, available on Amazon, which set a cheerful tone. On top, I layered Bordallo Pinheiro geranium leaf chargers for a touch of elegance. Simple indigo blue stoneware dinner plates from Larder & Vine provided a grounding contrast, with the star of the show—the Williams-Sonoma lemon plates—adding a pop of citrusy charm. 
For cereal, granola, or oatmeal, I used handled bowls I’ve cherished for years.

 
The glassware was a mix of sentimental and striking: yellow chalices inherited from my mother, cobalt blue champagne flutes, bubble glass lemon juice glasses, and petite Bordallo Pinheiro cabbage leaf espresso cups for a cohesive look.I chose Urban Villa green napkins (available here) to complement the palette, paired with the ornate Keawell Versailles flatware, a new favorite (find it here). 
 
Each place setting was adorned with a double sprig of fresh lemon balm from my deck garden, tucked into small spice jars repurposed as charming mini vases. Lemon salt and pepper shakers added an equally whimsical touch.
  
At the table’s center, a bold Pottery Barn hurricane served as a striking focal point. To elevate the festive vibe, I paired our champagne with a playful touch: my trusty oscillating bubble machine! Though the bubbles were fleeting due to the constant breeze in my area, they added a whimsical moment to the morning. At one point, however, it ran a bit amok.
This vibrant, citrus-inspired setup made our outdoor breakfast unforgettable, blending bold colors, personal treasures, and a dash of fun.
