Entertaining à la Française: Simple Tips for a Chic Summer Table

Hosting the French way is easy, chic, and beautiful. Here’s how to set a summer table with glassware that brings the charm. ⋆˚🐝˖°

Relaxed Elegance, the French Way

A French-inspired table is all about ease and layering. Use linen cloths, simple floral sprigs, and glassware that feels both functional and special.

What Glassware to Use

- Wine: Bee Stemmed Wine or Cotes Glass
- Water or Juice: Ouessant or Perigord Tumblers
- Apéritifs: Versailles or Artois Goblets

Seasonal Simplicity

Focus on light, seasonal fare: a fresh chèvre plate, cold rosé, summer fruits, or rustic bread. For dessert, berries and cream served in Bee Bowls feels effortless and elegant.

Set the Mood

Use soft candlelight, string lights, or lanterns. Don’t overthink it—French entertaining is all about connection and ease, not perfection.
