MEDITERRANEAN ESCAPE

We’re dreaming of azure blue seas, cobbled pathways, and lemon trees lining the streets. Welcome to the Mediterranean, Aussie style.

SET THE SCENE

When it comes to transforming your space from suburbia to Sicily, think fresh whites, sunshine yellows, and citrus accents. When dressing your table, remember – it’s all about layers. Start with a bright tablecloth, then add white dinnerware, linen napkins, tons of greenery, and have some fun with your table settings! There’s nothing more quintessentially Mediterranean than some fresh lemons – grab some from your local Stockland grocer.

CREATE A FEAST WITH FLAVOUR! TOMATOES, OLIVES, LEMONS, FIGS, BURRATA, AND HERBS ARE STAPLES OF EUROPEAN CUISINE.

Start the night with some mezze - smal plates designed to accompany drinks and facilitate conversation

MAKE IT PERSONAL

Put a personal touch on your table by creating bespoke name cards from scratch. Simply grab a couple of wide green leaves (we prefer magnolia leaves), and a metallic marker pen and channel your inner-calligrapher! You could also achieve something similar by writing on white clam shells – both would be perfect for a Mediterranean table! Otherwise, simply grab some plain white pillar candles in varying heights and group them together in the middle of your table. The ambience of the flickering candlelight will only add to the magic of the night. Play some Mediterranean-inspired tunes in the background and the stage is set for an incredible evening.
