When you think of table design, maybe you imagine cloth napkins, some peonies in mason jars (if you’re still in your DIY wedding phase), and matching cutlery.
But there’s table design, and then there’s table design.
We’re talking about designs where the table becomes the centerpiece of an entire experience. And then, you sit at it. It’s design and practicality at its finest!
Now in its 3rd edition, the Table Design Exhibition will be held from the 4-6th of December 2024, in Istanbul, Türkiye. This year, designers will be creating tablescapes inspired by… the theme: ‘Art of Winter’.
Is it completely unreasonable if we think that each design should include cutlery made out of ice? Maybe. All we know is this year is going to be very, very… cool.
Our very own Wendy El-Khoury, the fairy godmother of wedding and event planning, will be on the advisory board and an ambassador of the incredible event.
She’ll also be sharing her expert knowledge as a speaker in their masterclasses.
Flashback: Past Table Design Highlights
Over the past two years, we’ve seen some unreal tablescapes from designers all across the globe. From Grecian palaces to secret gardens, all with the most beautifully presented tables taking centre stage.
Here are the spectacular designs from last year to ogle over:
Why Istanbul is the Place to Be
Istanbul is the perfect backdrop for this fantastical event. Famous for its blend of the ancient and the modern, the East and the West, you couldn’t dream up a more unique stage for the wedding industry to meet.
We even traveled to the iconic destination in April for their RSVP Symposium, and our love for Istanbul has only grown since!
For all the history buffs out there, you’ll know how pivotal Türkiye has been throughout history, so why not have it be part of wedding history?
