Valentine’s Day Table Setting Inspiration
I love creating a themed table, and Valentine’s Day is the perfect excuse to create a memorable dining experience from home. With a little bit of creativity and attention to detail, you can transform an ordinary brunch or dinner into a romantic at home date for two. This simple Valentine’s Day tablescape is easy to recreate and sure to captivate your heart - and your guest’s too!
This Valentine’s Day table setting features an elegant blend of soft pinks, romantic reds, and shimmering metallic accents, perfect for creating a luxurious yet intimate vibe.
Start with a crisp white tablecloth to provide a neutral base for the romantic decor, add elegant dinnerware and glassware, including champagne glasses and heart shaped plates to add a touch of holiday fun. A stunning floral centrepiece of pink and red roses or flowers of your choice bring the look together for a timeless romantic touch.
Want to go the extra mile? Add in candles to create a warm, intimate glow across the table.

A thoughtfully set table not only enhances the dining experience but also shows your partner how much you care. By paying attention to every detail—colors, textures, and ambiance—you’re setting the stage for a heartfelt celebration.
Of course, a stunning Valentine’s Day table deserves an equally impressive menu. Here’s some inspiration for the perfect Valentine’s Day date at home:
A Valentine’s Day Brunch Feast:
Want to do something different to the norm? Why not create a romantic brunch feast with my Perfect Pancakes Recipe or Traditional Swedish Waffles Recipe. My Coconut Bread Recipe is also a great addition to a brunch menu (featured in Season One of The Real Housewives of Sydney!)
A Romantic Valentine’s Day Dinner Menu for Two
Appetiser: Start with something like my copycat Totti’s Woodfired Puffy Bread Recipe or a Caprese salad with fresh basil and balsamic glaze.
Main Course: For the centerpiece of your meal, why not try my Marinated Beef Fillet rolled in Fresh Herbs Recipe, paired with this Garlic Roasted Potatoes Recipe or if seafood is more your style, swap the beef for my Baked Salmon with Caper Sauce Recipe. This Paella Risotto Recipe is another favourite that is sure to impress.
Dessert: End on a sweet note with this Decadent Chocolate Pavlova Recipe served with strawberries, or opt for a classic crème brûlée or chocolate fondue.
Drinks: Toast your love with a glass of sparkling rosé or a signature Valentine’s Day cocktail like a Strawberry Bellini.
