Whether your home is modern, country, chic, bohemian, or rustic, you can turn your dining room into a romantic spot for a special occasion or, if you wish, for everyday use. Below are four ways you can add romantic dining room decor so that your special dinner becomes a memorable experience.

Table Linens

Your dining table is the focal point for your romantic dining room. You’ll want table linens that can complement the color palette of the room and the dining set you plan on using. Whether you are going for a romantic country meal or a modern romantic dinner, silk and cotton make wonderful table linens that add color and warmth to the dinnerware and centerpiece that will be set upon it.

Floral Arrangements and Centerpieces

Floral arrangements and centerpieces are romantic dining room decor that can be used either to create a statement or as part of the ambiance. Floral arrangements around the room or on the sideboard can help bring liveliness and color. Centerpieces will draw the eyes to the center of the dining table and bring excitement to your meal.

Mood Lighting

Mood lighting is extremely important to set a warm, cozy atmosphere in your dining room. Many options are available for mood lighting, from candles to chandeliers. You can also layer different mood lighting together to add more dimension. Candles offers a romantic, warm glow to the dining set. Chandeliers use multiple crystals to reflect its warm light around the room, giving the meal an extra magical sparkle.

Draperies and Upholstery

Drapes in velvet and woven silky jacquard add an extra texture to the room in order to stimulate the senses. Velvet adds a warm texture into the room, while the patterns of silky jacquard add a luxurious texture into the room. Select fabrics that can complement but not overwhelm the romantic dining table setup that you have planned.

Regardless the décor of your existing dining room, you can transform your dinner into a magical romantic experience by adding little touches, lights, and colors around the room.
