Dine in style this Eid: Stunning dining table décor ideas

From iftar gatherings with friends to Eid feasts with family, the dining room is an indispensable part of every house. Even if for many people the dining table décor is an afterthought, we can all agree that it should be a special place for delicious meals and lively conversations. So, from minimal settings to striking materials, we have gathered some dining table décor ideas that will be great for this Eid season!

Setting the table

The dining table itself is the focal point of your dining area. Hence, you should complement the dining room's design scheme with its form, style, and materials. For example, a solid wood table may withstand a more rustic style, while a glass table may need a more minimalist style.

Setting the mood

Lighting is one of the most recent trends in dining room decor. During your Eid meals, adding a chandelier or pendant light right over the table may enhance the beauty of a glass dining table. Moreover, to enrich your setting, adding some ambient lighting, such as tiny table lamps, will be wise, as these will transform the room into a beautiful golden hue reminiscent of the twinkling stars of Chand Raat.

Setting the feel

A beautiful candelabra or a bouquet may be the perfect centrepiece for your dining table during Eid. An antique candelabra can provide a mystical atmosphere, while the flowers can complement your aesthetics. Candles scented with cardamom or oud may also be used to provide the room with a nice Eid fragrance. Flowers, however, do wither away quickly after being cut. So, dried flowers will be a great option since they are both gorgeous and inexpensive, and you can use them for the entire Eid week. 

Setting the style

You could add a banner wishing Eid Mubarak to your dining room. You may hang them on the wall in front of the dining table as these are a fast and easy way to make any space seem more lively and joyful. You may find a lot of options online, or you could build one yourself. All you need is some glitter or fairy lights to make it sparkle. Rest assured, you can also take lovely pictures in front of them while enjoying your Eid feast!

Setting the stage

Star lanterns are a wonderful addition to the Eid theme as they complement the festival so beautifully. You can find solid star lanterns on various online pages. Putting them up in one corner of the dining table will make the aura festive. But if you are in a time and money crunch, making them by hand from paper is also an option! If you string them up with fairy lights in the dining room, they will glow in the dark, making them seem like a gateway that leads to your dining table, and ultimately, the Eid feast!

Setting the essentials

Napkins, table runners, and placemats in complementary shades ranging from cream and golden to white and lavender can enhance your dining table décor for Eid. With the help of adorable decorations such as crescent moon napkin rings, antique cutlery, and traditional metal plates, your Eid special biriyani, meat roast, and sweets will be fittingly served on the finest tableware.

Combining contemporary with traditional styles is sure to impress anybody looking at your home design. So, this Eid, impress your guests with these stunning, unique, and elegant dining table decors. Plus, it will be the ideal location for making memories that will last a lifetime!
