Green Theme Party
Today I’m excited to share these greenthemed dinner party ideasand tablescape with tropical vibes and a bohemian twist.
This outdoor summer table setting was inspired by myblack & tan patio décor with greenery, which coordinated so well with thesetropical plates I styled 4 ways. It all came together beautifully when I added in earthy and boho-style elements like the woodgrain dinner plates, the macramé runner, and succulents.
I’ve always thought of the color green as a neutral tone. It’s the color of nature so it’s a great accent for almost any other color. In this case I started with neutrals and let green shine as a major pop of color. I think it turned out warm, cozy, and inviting, don’t you!

Menu
As with all mydinner party menus, I like to follow a theme when possible. Since green is the color of the soiree I’ve chosen some appropriate food items that fit right in.
- For starters, create aDELICIOUScocktail usingCucumber & Mint Lemonade. Simply mix it with a little gin or vodka and garnished with cucumber ribbons and mint sprigs, this signature drink is so refreshing.
- If you want to serve a green tinted drink, make thesechampagne and Midori drinks. They’re very festive!
- For appetizers I placed a dish in the middle of the table of steamed edamame in the shell sprinkled with sea salt. I got the idea from an Asian-fusion restaurant we recently went to for a friend’s birthday. It was such an interesting and interactive way to nosh on something light before dinner…similar to chips and salsa for a Mexican theme. Don’t forget to add a second dish or small bowl for the discarded shells.
- For the main dish I like to serve something light and easy like grilled lemon & herb chicken (from thisal fresco dinner party menu). The perfect side dish is a chopped salad…I’m obsessed with chopped salads lately and have been eating them 3-4 times a week! You can just buy the bags at the grocery store and it looks like you’ve been chopping all day!
- For dessert I chose thislime tartlets recipe. It’a a great make-ahead dessert that looks so pretty with the green decor.
EXPERT TIP:Pre-pour drinks into glasses that can be nestled into a large bowl of ice. Add some succulents to the bowl for a decorative touch. Guests can grab a cold drink as they arrive.
Green Tablescape
Create your own green table setting and celebrate the summer in tropical-boho style.
- Some of the notable aspects of this green party design are the addition of tropical plants and succulents to help create a “room” feel outdoors. That’s also carried on to the table with a succulent “runner” and tiny sprigs attached to name cards.
- Layer plates to incorporate the look of wood, marble, and the tropics, for each place setting.
- Green glasses and napkins are balanced by wooden napkin rings, and gold flatware and lanterns add “jewelry” to the table.
- 另一个吸引眼球的元素设置is the candle chandelier draped with greenery. This draws the eye upward and adds loads of ambiance. Just make sure the greens are placed safely away from lit candles.
