We will assume you already have your location. Places that rent banquet space will provide tables and table clothes if asked. These things are usually included in the price of the rental. But if not there are banquet or party rental stores that will rent you everything you need right down to the candle sticks.

Now let's put those dishes on the table. It is easier sometimes to start with the silver ware. Just imagine yourself sitting down for dinner. Place the dinner fork on the left and the salad fork next to it on the left of it. Place the knife on the right of the dinner plate or at least where it will be and the spoon on the right of it. Be sure you have the teeth of the knife turned to the left or toward the dinner plate. Now for the glasses place the water glass over the knife and the iced tea or beverage glass over the spoon. The glasses will appear to be steps.

Next we will begin to place the cups and saucers. The saucers will be placed right of the spoon and knife the cup handle will be turned at a 5:00 angle for easy access. If it is more formal where you will have a B&B or bread and butter plate just place it directly in front of the forks. Your napkins can be to you liking. They may be places in the glass as a fluff or places in some other imaginative fashion. Have some fun with it.
