As Valentine’s Day approaches, we wanted to create a table setting perfect for a sassy little dinner party. Inspired by a ’90s Versace dinner scene, our design focuses on rich golds, deep reds, and pops of jungle motifs. From florals to décor, it’s a little punchy and a lot flashy.

Bold Green and Gold Accents

Stepping away from classic red-and-pink, cutesy accents—hearts and garlands—we wanted to show that a Valentine’s table can bend tradition in unexpected ways. February is still a winter month: moody, dark, and cold. Choosing green and gold accents brings effortless warmth to our tablescape, making it feel rich without leaning into obvious Valentine’s red.

Staying true to our Wild for You theme, animal-themed, gold-accented ceramic decorative bowls by Waylande Gregory add the perfect modern punch. A vintage Royal Worcester porcelain ewer featuring a gilt dragon adds a little spice in its own right.

Fresh Florals

We set the table with perfectly glossy red roses. This traditional choice is timeless and always makes a statement for Valentine’s Day. Red roses don’t have to feel tired—here, they feel effortless and elegant. The contrast between the red florals and green accents is soothing to the eye, while the scale of the arrangements feels lush and enticing.

Alongside the roses, we chose deep plum scabiosa for added depth and mood. Fresh florals always bring a table to life.

Setting the Mood with Lighting

We’ve been loving rechargeable table lamps. They add warmth without the worry of candle wax. For this look, we layered a few different designs to create a collected, curated feel. Varying their heights—much like candles—creates the same romantic glow and visual rhythm across the table.

Because they’re dimmable, the mood can shift effortlessly from dinner to late-night lounging. The effect feels intimate, luxe, and just a little dramatic.

The Final Mood

This tablescape is about romance with an edge. It blends fashion influence, bold pattern, rich color, and layered texture to create a setting that feels indulgent. Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to mean predictable—it can be expressive and a little wild. With low lighting, lush florals, and collected details, the table becomes an experience.
