Opulent and ornate are on trend for place settings this year. Gold cutlery, fine bone china tableware and crystal goblets are where it's at, but in most cases, that kind of refined elegance just doesn't make the budget cut. What's need are innovative solutions to make any event social media snap-worthy without the associated price tag.

“We're seeing more and more caterers being asked to provide sit-down meals as opposed to finger food for formal events, but this creates its own challenges,” says Alan, Director of Party Settings. “Apart from catering challenges with the move towards more formal meals, there are place settings to consider. They're as much part of the meal as the food, so it is essential to make an impact.”

Gold plastic cutlery from Party Settings creates stunning visual appeal. Along with their heavy weight and classic design, they look and feel remarkably real. Gold plastic cutlery makes a stunning statement of luxury and opulence at an affordable price. “All our gold plastic cutlery is heavyweight plastic with a classically elegant design, so they're as good to hold as to look at,” says Alan.

Gold plastic cutlery is made from heavyweight polystyrene plastic with a glossy gold finish. These top quality budget beaters feature an elegant handle and the same ornate look and feel as traditional flatware. Knives, forks, spoons, teaspoons and cake forks are available in packs of 24 or as combo cutlery packs of 24 for full place settings.

“Gold cutlery is definitely on trend this year, and along with the movement towards more formal meals for parties and celebrations, it is definitely finding its way to tables across the UK and around the world,” says Alan. “Event planners who want to create the look and feel of a fine dining experience need look no further than our top quality selection of gold plastic cutlery.”

Gold plastic cutlery is not only on trend, it's versatile. Gold goes beautifully with Art Deco black heavy plastic tableware in square, rectangular or wave designs. Layered elegance can be achieved with the Royalty Collection of plastic ivory tableware with gold edging, or try complete opulence with ivory and gold lace rimmed strong plastic plates and bowls.

“And don't forget the stemware with our top notch plastic wave design fluted wine goblets and champagne flutes,” says Alan. “To top off the evening, serve coffee after dessert in any of our range of stylish mugs and saucers, with a gold finish teaspoon to round up the look.”

Party Settings also stocks a wide range of place setting accessories. White and gold leaf three-ply paper napkins are a luxurious addition to the table setting, or dress it down with stunning lilac ready folded napkins. White rose on black completes an Art Deco theme. “For décor ideas, we have gold holographic party poppers, pastel latex balloons, elegant favour boxes and a range of placecards and holders,” add Alan.

It really is possible to create an opulent, elegant and luxurious dining experience for the largest crowd without breaking the bank. “Plastic tableware and flatware has come such a long way,” says Alan. “It offers all the appeal of pure luxury without the prohibitive price tag.” Have a look at the Party Settings online offering to make the next event the one that makes all the right waves.
