Serve a fabulous birthday dinner (check out our budget-friendly dinner party menus) on a table shimmering with candlelight and gold accents. Even if the birthday honoree insists on eating his favorite meal of barbecue and corn-on-the-cob, the most casual recipes take on gourmet status when eaten at a well-decorated table.
- Create formal place settings with gold-trimmed china set on gold chargers.
- Use glass candlesticks in different styles and heights as table centerpieces.
- Accent with votives at each place setting for additional illumination.
- Stick with white or cream linens that will not compete with sparkling elements.
