The Champagne Host - The Sommelier's Edit 02 | Setting the Table

A beautiful table begins with what you already have.

Introducing The Champagne Host | The Sommelier’s Edit 02: Setting the Table, by Zelda Delgado, Sommelier and founder of Luxe Maha.

You don't need expensive dinnerware, matching accessories or a perfectly styled home to set a table worth sitting at.

I've always believed that how you set a table should reflect the way you live, the food you're serving and the people you're inviting.

In this beautifully illustrated digital edition, I share my approach to setting the table. From choosing plates and arranging cutlery to selecting glassware, folding napkins, introducing flowers and creating the right atmosphere.

You'll also discover how everyday items, including simple tea towels, can be used in unexpected ways.

What's included:

• Choosing plates, bowls and table linens
• Understanding cutlery and glassware placement
• Napkins, tea towels and simple alternatives
• Flowers, candles and lighting
• Menus and place cards
• Setting a table for two or for friends
• My final table preparation checklist

Every illustration is inspired by tables I've set in my own homes, showing how ordinary pieces can become part of something personal.

My hope is that this edition gives you the confidence to trust your own eye and enjoy setting the table without feeling that anything needs to be perfect.
